Tire dealers throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex are in position to score some points with motorists as Yokohama has signed a one-year sponsorship agreement with the National Football League’s Dallas Cowboys.
The deal includes signage at the state-of-the-art Cowboys Stadium, which opened last year; pre-game, post-game and in-game spots on the team’s flagship radio station; in-stadium displays and in-game announcements on the public address system and on LED boards; as well as hospitality opportunities at select games.
Yokohama will also be associated with the team’s traveling Dallas Cowboy Museum Tour truck, which goes to more than 100 events per year.
“We’ve had great success the last few seasons with our sports marketing program,” says Dan King, vice president of sales and marketing, “but we’ve really raised the bar by partnering with the highly visible Dallas Cowboys. “They have a huge, passionate fan base in Texas and across the U.S. They truly are America’s Team.”
With the latest agreement, Yokohama has now secured sponsorship deals with the NFL, Major League Baseball’s Los Angeles Angels and the National Basketball Association’s Boston Celtics and San Antonio Spurs. “More are to come,” says King, “we’ll have an announcement in a few weeks on other NFL teams we’re partnering with.”
This is the fourteenth playoff game for the Celtics. They are getting tired. In the first round, they went 3-1 at home, droping the first game of the series at home. In this series against the Magic, they are 2-1 at home, again dropping the first game of the series at home.
Forecast: The Rockets win if the continue to do what they did in Game One. I think they have maybe figured out the Lakers, but I believe the Lakers will win in Game Two. Score: 108-99.
Because if you can't beat 'em, you might as well "choke".
