I'm including it here because the Sparks play their home games in the newly-renamed arena!

Something called crypto.com can pay $700 million for these naming rights, and I don't understand anything about the world.

Whoa $700M just for naming rights?

Heck, they could put a name on my house for 1% of that, my terms are reasonable. Laughing

I wonder if Crypto.com will even be in business in 20 years. I remember the dot com craze of the 90's.

I'm guessing it's very unlikely. The crypto bubble will burst with a couple of years.

This brings the old Sparks-Storm rivalry to a whole new level, when even their arena names are intrinsically opposed to each other.
