    It’s the .com that makes it bad, but Staples was also a brand so people need to calm down. Brand names for arenas is lame no matter how you slice it.

    The Crypt could be a cool nickname for the arena. Maybe.

    Was thinking that very same thing when I read this.

    I often wonder what the value of these naming rights really ends up meaning to the companies that purchase them.

    I always thought it was weird that the premier arena (or #2 behind MSG) was sponsored by Staples.

    Rox should sell the naming rights of the tc to Voyager Digital, it would be called the Voyager Arena or "The Launch Pad" as a nickname
