There are 7 gates at Miller Park with no corporate names on them.

Redskins have FedEx Field, the McDonalds scoreboard, gates named.. Every single thing under the sun sponsored. Lambeau and the Packers do have a slightly different situation than every other team in the league in that they are owned by stockholders vs a single owner. they also own their stadium. Many times, the stadium is owned by a city or something and naming rights aren't up to the team at all.

But if youre a true chicagoan youre suppose to mispronounce it as cominsky.

I find yankees fans pretty revolting too.

I could see the exact same thing happening in STL if AB-InBev ever pulls the naming rights for Busch Stadium. That name has been associated with the Cardinals home park (all 3) for 65 years.
