Makes me sick as well, It's ALL about the almighty dollar!

The ads showing from under the ice are horrible.. Now on the uniforms..

Probably won’t be long till they start showing political advertisements also. Money talks..

"Honey, I just saw a Ford sticker on a hockey uniform. Let's go buy a Ford. Right now!"

Is that how they think it works? Or is it all psychological and the more times I see "Ford", the more I'll want one when it comes time to get a new car?

Gotta be psychological advertisers betting on...like that bet99 that everywhere, nobody knows them but they hoping people just try then the note they see them.

Other sports uniforms it wouldn't be as bad as hockey, because hockey uniforms have big logo on front and on shoulders and captain and assistant captain letters - now they gotta fit in advertising too

Actually these ads not too bad when they're this small and match colours, but still rather not have them there:
