The Marlins have sold naming rights to their stadium. It will be officially known as LoanDepot Park. That seems somehow…appropriate. It is as if the former Mets owners, the Wilpons, had named Citi Field “Ponzi Park.” Has a ring to it, doesn’t it?

As John Cleese called out to his kitchen workers, “Please fetch me M’sieur’s bucket!”
No one is gonna buy a mortgage from these people because they’ve inflicted this clumsy, charmless name on the stadium. But hey, if that’s how they want to piss away the stockholders’ money, more power to them.
To me it always was, is and will be Macondo Banana Massacre Field.

That definitely has more panache than “LoanDepot Park.” I still like “Ponzi Park” for the Mets, but will cut them some slack and not call Citi Field that since they’re fortunately no longer owned/being dragged down by the Wilpons…except on July 1. Their home field stays “Ponzi Park” on Bobby Bonilla Day through 2035.

Will they be blasting the voice of that little girl in the commercial saying “You need a loan? Daddy, it’s for you.”?

THAT would cause me to run screaming from the park. It’s supposed to be cute, but it’s become torture

Better than Amway Park and Florida Man Field might have been too on the nose. At least it will be the designated station for something besides salary-dump trades.
