I am not opposed to the income from the naming rights.  Every other team does it so it is about time the Bengals do.

All I was doing was pointing out that the Bengals could easily cover escrow accounts for guaranteed contracts if they wanted to without selling the naming rights.

If you think they can't then you don't understand finance.  Most businesses leverage their income by using debt.  A business worth $2 BILLION with no debt could easily generate the money for an escrow fund if they really did not want to sell the naming rights.

Amazon has over $7 billion dollars in debt on their books.  They would not be making nearly as much money if they never utilized debt.  That is how corporations work.

You most likely don't understand you just refuted your own point. 

See the thing is when you argued no debt to....................Nevermind you're right

This is one of the weirdest thread derails I’ve seen on here to date.

Nice lol

I will miss the Paul Brown Stadium name until we win the SuperBowl though.

I liked the name of our stadium being of the founder and the great Paul Brown.
