“Would you rather have a team that’s winning games with a logo…

Posted on by

…or no logo not winning?”,as Georgia A.D. Josh Brooks posited in the 247Sports.com article linked below:

“Progressive’ branding and integrated marketing elements will debut at the start of the season. Per a release, the collaboration will include on-field branding, sideboard features, in-venue LED signage, digital and social media integrations, and other game day experiences designed to engage fans. “

I wonder if Flo will become part of the game day experience to repulse engage fans?*

If other insurance behemoths were a sponsorship choice, the “Mayhem” guy from Allstate would’ve worked well with Kirby’s desire for havoc on defense. Of course, Jake from State Fromm was a natch match. The Geico lizard is too closely related to the Handbags for my taste, so they’re out.

It’s also interesting to see the hodge-podge of lucky 13 schools are that Progressive is sponsoring:

Ole Miss, Boise State, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas State, Oregon, Purdue, SMU, Syracuse, Texas Tech, USC, Wake Forest

Fellow GTPR’s: How do you feel about Vince Dooley Field being sullied for filthy NIL luchre?**

Discuss….

*I tried to get ChatGPT to get more of that “creepy hot” Flo look, but maybe that’s an area all this recent corporate expenditure on A.I. can be put to good use

**I love our traditions and traditional looks to things, but I kinda lean towards winning, too. YMMV

Nothing to Do on a Saturday Night

Apparently, they’re so enamored with the backdrop of Atlanta that they didn’t pay attention to details.

First, who cares.

Second, if you’re going to stroke that ego so hard with this picture of a shitty stadium and a less than iconic city backdrop, at least wait until the stadium is full, like when the game is starting and the fans are hype.

Oh, wait. That is the first quarter. Check the scoreboard. And that was the Georgia State game, you know, the first home game on American soil for your Georgia Tech “favorites to win the ACC” Yellow Jackass. Then, get this crap:


Besides Georgia? Hell I’m just shocked Tech has played anyone else in the state 46 times…maybe they should schedule Agnes Scott next, more their weight class.

Too bad they couldn’t get a picture from the game with Georgia. We’d make sure the stadium was full, nerds.
