It just won't die...
Apparently we're still talking about this name change stuff.
According to ESPN, Arte Moreno has the city of Anaheim by the balls, and may be able to extort his way out of the clause in the stadium lease that requires the team to identify itself as "Anaheim". The city needs Moreno's approval to build a football stadium on the Angels Stadium parking lot, giving Moreno the leverage he needs to market his team as he sees fit.
Seeing as how this whole scenario hinges on the NFL stadium deal- which I don't see happening- it doesn't put me on the edge of my seat. Besides, does the name "Los Angeles" really sell all that many more shirts than does "Anaheim"? I thought OC culture was all the rage these days.
