Interesting that their sponsors ALLOW Yankee Stadium to have competitors advertise too. Who the hell wrote that contract?
At my local racetrack for example, APC Auto Parts is a major sponsor–and there’s no way in hell you’d see a NAPA, Carquest or Partsource logo anywhere on the track, except on a car sponsored by them.
I guess my long-wearing Casio watches qualify me as an old fart too. I saw on some blog that now everyone carries a phone that shows the time and no one needs a wrist watch anymore. Peh.
Actually, I’ve got a Casio “Oceanus” watch which has five motors and a radio connection which resets it to actual time on three continents (Asia, North America, Europe), allowing me with pinpoint accuracy to be late to meetings or to document others who are.
From what I have seen, this watch is a very high quality unit, made of titanium with a sapphire crystal and incorporating a solar power system to charge its on-board battery and capacitors. It is unerringly accurate, has an analog display which can be read at night thanks to high quality “glow-in-the-dark” coatings. And the date numbers are large enough that my old(er) eyes can check the data most of the time. With an e-Bay price of $600 it was a relative bargain when compared to mechanical watches from that tiny country in the middle of Europe. CASIO Rules…
Ford can still afford a larger billboard than Toyota?
what the hell does Casio do anymore?!
Ford’s way out in left field?

Cleveland Indians rule!
OK. Ruled yesterday…
Audi is supposed to be the official car of the NY Yankees. Yet no billboard that I can see..
The ad for Belgian beer?
what the hell does Casio do anymore?!
They made this fine watch I’m wearing that’s hardly missed a beat for me in the last 6 years.
It’s the only thing Japanese I’ll buy. :P
I thought Audi was the official car of the Yankees?
Do I see empty seats in Yankee Stadium??
“Ford’s way out in left field?”
WIN!
There’s no way that that is a current picture. Waaay too green and Zales is bankrupt.
The Sharper Image is also kaput.
Let’s see – a beautiful 1.5 BILLION Dollar baseball park turned into a “Messerschmidt” by a gigantic collection of inhomogeneous, gaudy billboards?

That new Pepsi logo. God damn.

The good news is that Audi can’t buy a championship like Steinbrenner could.
