I personally don't have a problem with advertising in sports. To be honest, I really enjoy the commercials during the superbowl! Some years, depending on who is playing, I am more excited about the commercials than the actual game!
I do think that advertising can be good and bad for the actual team. It can be good because it brings in money for the team. It helps pay the salaries to the players as well as keeping the facilities nice. In a way it helps us because if sports teams weren't receiving money from advertisers I'm sure the price for a ticket would be more expensive. On the other hand, there is potential threat for advertising to be bad for the teams. If one player is constantly getting media attention and getting paid to do commercials that could cause tension and jealousy with the other players as well as creating a prima-donna.
All in all, I think that advertising in sports is more of a good thing than a bad thing.
