Apparently, now that Fleet Financial has been gobbled up, the people that run the Fleet Centre in Boston have a bit of a quandry as far as what to call the building. Seizing on the opportunity, they're going to auction off the naming rights on a day-by-day basis until a permanent corporate sponsor can be lined up. If we can fix internet polls, certainly we can collaborate to rename the Fleet Centre, even if it's just for one night...

As an update, it appears that a Yankee fan won the right to name the Fleet Center for a day, and wants to call it the Derek Jeter Center. No news yet on whether the Fleet Center's actually going to allow it.... sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1999622

They rejected it. I hate the Yankees more than anyone should hate any other team, but that's funny.
I would have named it the "Pete Carroll Center".
