E.C. EXCLUSIVE: SNEAK PEEK OF THE NEW IZOD CENTER

by DCScrap, Our Book of Scrap

In case you missed the news, the New Jersey Nets have a new sponsor for their arena. The formerly named Continental Airlines Arena will now be called the Izod Center.

Two other clothing companies -- Rocawear and Southpole -- had also been bidding to have their name on the arena, which had been called the Continental Airlines Arena.

Authority officials said Izod's willingness to handle marketing for arena events was a major factor in their decision to award the company the naming rights.

Frankly we are glad they chose Izod over those other companies. The arena looks so much better now. (Give a look after the jump.)

Pink is the new black, you know. I can't wait to see what they come up with for uniforms. I hope they're as good as those cute Alexander Julian duds the Hornets used to have.
