The Star Telegram had a story speculating about what company would eventually win the the bidding rights to the new Dallas Cowboys stadium. The players are (with annual revenues): D.R. Horton: $15.05 billion Exxon Mobil: $370.68 billion Southwest Airlines: $9.09 billion TXU Corp.: $10.44 billion Verizon: $75.11 billion XTO Energy: $3.52 billion Wells Fargo & Co.: $35.69 billion Capital One: $3.07 billion EDS:$19.76 billion Texas Instruments: $13.39 billion
Exxon seems like the natural choice. I actually drove by the new site of the stadium yesterday. I had not idea that it was so close to Collins Street (heck, it is on Collins Street.) And although there wasn't much to see, I've never seen so many cranes in one location in my life.

I hate naming everything after the sponsor (but I guess it helps to raise money)! I especially hate how all the golf tournaments are now "named", also (with the exception of the Masters).
It raises money for one Jerry Jones. Arlington taxpayers get nada for things like naming. They just get the bills.
With all that money Exxon stole from everyone by raising gas prices why not get their name on the new stadium. They have to do something with all that money.
Yeah, Exxon really stoled money from everyone by raising gas prices...It was all Exxon...no other entity had anything to do with the gas prices!
Is Exxon a member of OPEC?
You could get a bike and ride to work everyday. Oh thats right you want to bitch and probably own a SUV.
Exxon is working on a prototype car that runs on oxygen but the liberals are opposed because they don't know how to tax it.
