I can assure you Browns fans Factory of Sadness is still very funny. First Energy Factory of Sadness Field is bordering on hilarious.

Slickster, it’s nice to know the Hamilton Tiger-Cats don’t have corporate sponsorship on their stadium.

Glad my team doesn’t put these embarrassing labels on our stadium. Besides, they make enough from parking fees.

Interestingly, one of the Philadelphia Phillies farm league teams also plays in a FirstEnergy Stadium. I doubt that the stadium naming deal for the Reading Fightin’ Phils is as lucrative though.

I’m thinking First Energy Field?

Marketing people love alliteration.

seriously it might take 2-3 years give or take I believe the browns will be at least respectable “on the field” they should be able to get it together with haslam at the helm. too bad clevelanders will be sick to their stomachs that it took a minority owner from the steelers to do it. how will that sit with puppy pounders?? cry me a river or 3

It’s nice to not have a cheesy corporate brand in your stadium name, but I know some Browns fans who would sign over the naming rights of themselves, their children, and their grandchildren if it would bring a Lombardi to Cleveland. Message to Haslam: use the money well and the fans will easily forgive you for this.

Are you CERTAIN that it will be “FirstEnergy Stadium”?

I am under the impression that there is another facility with that exact name.

The Factory of Sadness thing was funny a year ago.

@whatnojets . . . no, I’m saying the fact that it’s a public project will mean that the numbers will be disclosed via open meetings laws.

Are you saying that members of the Cleveland City Council are a bunch of blabber mouths??
