There are some things people say that actually don't change over time too. While what you're saying might be true, what I'm saying might be true too and if they put ads on jerseys, I'm not going to buy one. Simple as that, and I don't give a #### how petty or not the opinion is because it's just that, my opinion.

Not sure about other people but for me, I know I wouldn't.
If logo's on jersey's is something as core to your values as not committing murder.............then I will absolutely retract my statement (when it comes to you), assuming you aren't a total nut job and say for certain that your statement that you will never buy a jersey in your life is 100% accurate. However, if corporate logo's on jersey's is actually that core to your values, I would suggest you need to put some time into having some important #### happen to you so you can focus on that instead.

But if it's not as core to your values as murder, then I can say with absolute certainty the following points are true.

- Will you buy a jersey at some point even if they have corporate logo's on them - maybe.
- You will never buy a jersey with a corporate logo on it - maybe.
- At this very moment in time, you actually have no idea if you will buy a corporate logo jersey at some point in the future - 100% true.

Which is really the only point. Everyone coming in here talking about all the lost jersey sales and speaking in absolutes about what they will or won't do as it comes buying jersey's if the NHL adds corporate logo are simply in no position to make that statement, even when it comes to themselves.

It's one thing to say you'll NEVER do something like murder, that should be as core to your beliefs as possible and makes for a fairly safe prediction. Peoples opinions on trivial things like which type of sweater I will ware 5 years from now (which is essentially what this is) change with the wind. In the 80's I though acid wash jeans and jean jackets were the tits.............right now, I think they suck.
