    Would have made more sense for them to purchase the naming rights to Citi Field where the Mets play.

    I would have preferred something cool like JetBlue or something like that, but I guess there could be worse. At least it's not going to be Preparation H arena.

    That's the 1st thing I thought of. They probably would've gotten the most bang for the buck..... but Wilpon's secret desire would have it be Dodger Life

    jetBlue would be a great / appropriate name for the stadium (and their HQ is in NYC), but they don't have that kind of $$

    As long as it doesn't have the word "Giant" in it, any name is fine with me.

    I could careless about who buys the naming rights to the New Meadowlands Stadium because PSL dollars will not be refunded.

    damn you...
     

  11. I could see that. I was surprised MetLife went for this stadium, and not the new Mets park.

    JetBlue would have been good. If the company was bigger, Green Giant, with the huge green bean...

    edit: I see it has already been discussed...

    Meh. We'll get used to it I'm sure.

    Having no name is annoying because it gives analysts and other fans the excuse to continue calling it "Giants Stadium" or "New Giants Stadium".

    Jet-Life Stadium doesn't sound too bad after all.

    Fine by me, anything's better than giants Stadium. It was a matter of time. There are definitely worse corporate names than that.

    Maybe there'll be a big picture of Snoopy on the side of the building.

    There's no sense in changing the name to metlife or meadowlands, we should just stick to the current name which is New Jets Stadium
