Predators Involved in Naming Rights Scandal

Who would name their arena Gaylord Entertainment Center anyway?

The Nashville Predators the 5 year old NHL expansion team has filed a lawsuit against Gaylord Entertainment Company for not paying in January for the naming rights to the arena.

This is getting silly, folks. With the issues of Enron and the internet website that had the naming rights to Baltimore Raven's field, I think stories like this should change the minds of pro teams who get corporate sponsors. At least, they should be more thorough in their investigations and not give the rights over to the highest bidder.
