Baseball scrapping idea to put Spidey webs on bases to promote
Spider-man 2 movie.

Wouldn't it be interesting to have movie studios sponsor teams? With
the huge wads of cash they toss around on promotions, seems a cycling
team would be just the thing.

Imagine Lance & Co. in jersies featuring upcoming films. I suppose
the public would gobble up kit, too.

Flintstones 3: Tour de Bedrock official team jersey!"



On second thought...

A movie studio could sponsor a team but they would have to change
jerseys every couple weeks to keep promoting their latest film. It
might be kind of strange to see a team manager order an attack by
several of his guys in order to promote the movie currently on their
jerseys.

I vote for political campaigns. Then they could attack for ideological
reasons and bring a whole new dimension to the sport... and bring all the
rbr threads on topic at the same time!

It's more than a rumor that Bianchi intends to step up with a very
large sponsorship next season with a full scale development team along
with a good D1 pro team, similar to the previous Mapei program in
several ways.

The Libertarian party was the title sponsor for the Leonardtown Crit a
couple of years ago (2001).
