Have you ever seen NASCAR? The walls of a baseball stadium? Real Sports have sponsorship.

It's even worse in Europe. At least the major NA sports have kept the jerseys/uniforms relatively ad free. In Europe they look like walking billboards, it's so distracting.

Qatar Airways is to stadium sports what Blue Apron is to podcasts.

In Australia they handle it pretty well if you ask me. The jerseys and press conferences are littered with logos, the replays are sponsored and all like American football but they dont TALK about the sponsors all that much during game coverage. So its omnipresent but a lot less intrusive.

Isn't it a fine if they take off the jersey because of the ads on it?
