Without notice, the Heinz Field name change came in the blink of an eye. Why not call the stadium Art Rooney Field after the Steelers’ founder?

We could revert back to the geographical reference of Three Rivers Stadium. How appropriate.

The new naming rights revenue should go back to the taxpayers that funded it and technically own the stadium. Maybe the Steelers could even refund the seating licenses.

But this is all about sports/corporate greed, just like the $26 beer sold at the stadium.

This former season ticket holder relinquished his seats when the seating license came to be.

There is life after sports.
