People with taste. You do recall Baseball hasn't been the dumbed down support of "left turn only" ... well, unless you consider the addition of the DH as dumbing down the sport like I do.
Never the less, think about this objectively -- what happens if and when this shows up in teh US? You think the media is goign to sit back idle if the fans are outraged? You think the fans - those willing to voice their opinions on the internet and speak up about it -- revolt? You think that uniform sales will keep going at a steady pace with "TEXACO" or "APPLE" or "McRIB DELUX" etched on them?
If this becomes the standard instead of an isolated incident there has to be an organized opposition to things. If someone started a petition drive, if there were other fan revolts that required you to get active -- DO IT.
I know too many Internet people who will see this, complain about it in the exact same light you are, and then take a cynical approach in trying to organize against it. "No one will listen to me or care about fans complaining, I am not going to take part in that. No, I am just going to take my bitterness and sulk and
kvetch on my blog/forum because it's not worth the time or effort to actually fight what they are doing to
my game."
