NightLink: NorthShore University HealthSystem Bears

by Dane Noble on Jul 21, 2009 4:52 PM CDT

As you all probably remember, the NFL has allowed teams to sell advertising space on practice jerseys in the form of 3.5 inch by 4.5 inch patches. The Chicago Bears have signed a three year contract with NorthShore University HealthSystem, and will debut the patch at the start of training camp.

ChiFan13 and I were talking earlier... wouldn't it have been ironic to have seen this last year when Chris Williams went down?

A look at the patch after the jump.

I wonder how much NSUHS paid for this advertisement? Better yet, I wonder how much money they expect to make off of having their patch on a practice jersey?

I may be getting an idea for the next Photoshop Contest...

Dumb idea for NSUHS

Better yet, I wonder how much money they expect to make off of having their patch on a practice jersey?

I don’t understand how this ad can be profitable for any company. How many people/fans attend training camp?

Good point

I guess that would drive something good for the company.

Kinda like this free bit of advertising right here.

Where is Bob Rohrman in all of this???

He could change his logo to a bear in a car and reap the whirlwind.

Bob Rohrman makes great commercials.

Who wouldn’t want to buy a car from this guy?

Who cares

This is the way of professional sports teams these days. It’s all about maximizing every last possible revenue stream you can.

Cubs will win 79 to 83 games. Season has been over for weeks. St. Louis will eventually run away with this division. And you can print it. BLou (7/21/09)
