I can't imagine the name means that much anymore. They way commerical names have made their way into the names of stadiums and other places they have bought set the stage for the perversion to begin.

With a name on the stadium, then expect a meltdown. Let's see. The new Mets stadium is a trophy for someone who just lost half his net worth on Madoff. What was Baltimore's stadium named? That internet company quickly disappeared.

Blockbuster put its name on a stadium. It quickly diminished. Citizen Bank names a baseball park. So Royal Bank of Scotland then needed $billions from the British government.

Should the tower be named Willis, then how quickly will that company disappear? How widespread is that trend?
