Comment: That's good. I can't imagine a 75-year-old man talking about going to the Rocawear Center. That just doesn't sound right to me.

Comment: Did ya'll really think they would allow the name "The Rockawear" arena! lmao

Comment: Sounds too much like Rockafella Center. Those 75 yrs old would get it all confused.

Comment: This has given RW sooo much publicity (free pub at that) and he STILL owns the team, he's one of the richest entertainers in the world and has Beyonce on his arm. Game. Set. Match Jay-Z.

Comment: Jay-Z still wins either way. Selah, Jay doesn't own the team. He is a minority owner like Nelly and Usher. He owns about 5.6 % of the team. Technically he owns a piece of team, but he has no say in in management, trades, etc.

Comment: as much as I would love to see a Rocawear arena, because it means a lot more than a name, I am thankful to see a brother making some changes. Which means this brother has juice, which is the very reason Izod got the bid. excuse me, but I cannot remember the last time I have seen an Izod shirt--especially in the stores. Going from Rockafeller to Rockafella - even though it didn't happen--the notice is-- that JayZ is in the house!

Comment: jay-z needs to do a revamp of his clothing line. nothing screams 'signature' to me from his line of clothing. izod is a staple from waaay back and I STILL HAVE some signature, vintage pieces....... and jay z just needs to create that certain factor in his clothes.....step it up a tainch......miss tina too.

Comment: Ain't got ISHT to do with the name. Izod is saving these YT folks money by providing marketing and advertising. YT folks are out for the almighty coin -- they'll sell their momma and kids if they can make or save some damn money (HA!!!)

Comment: I agree MzTee, but I also know about YT's pride when it comes to corraling the consumerist cattle, too.

Comment: MOC...most definitely. Pride does play a part. But, the ruling principle of this white hegemonic capitalist society is and will always be MONEY!!!

Comment: Wonder if Jay has provided the world clean water to drink yet...

Name:

Comment: Mztee is correct, it has nothing to do with the name it's about saving the company money. I also thought they may have given it to the other company, because most feel the Hip Hop fans are TROUBLE. Oh and by the way, going to IZOD or Rocawear Center sounds equally the same to me, neither is better. Keep it movin' Jay, you are making an awesome transformation.
