    Well, Gatorade is owned by Pepsi, so its not suprising.

    Hmmmm...I wonder if Coca Cola might drop out of the running in the naming rights for the new arena, if they were in the running to begin with...

    I still wonder about that Starbucks possibility for Yaoza.

    On one hand it's a perfect tie-in. On the other, we don't want the Seattle/Starbucks owner driving Yao around Seattle, pointing out how nice the city is, how many Chinese they have (I imagine a sizeable Chinese population), and how much free agent money they'll have available in three years (if that would be the case).

    Proportionately, thats what I look like when i'm drinking a red bull. He should be drinking out of a 2 liter so the pepsi doesnt look so small. just some marketing pointers....

    What does it take, forty-five minutes for that drink to travel to his stomach? You know you're tall when your drink has to commute. I'll bet it is amazing looking at him in person.
