Professional Football(Soccer)
I just had to say it while it was still in my head. Why do we bother with professioal football if we don't have the mentality? All teams except Al-Ahly and Zamalek have the same sponsors, they wear the same design of gear although they have different colours. The only exception to that rule is teams owned by companies. I mean wouldn't it make sense if a local company in Portsaid for example would want to advertise on Al-Masry's shirt? The last couple years most teams had ads for Misr Bank, this year its McDonald's. Heck the national team has only two sponsors. And why the heck don't they have press confrences after the matches that get televised? That's where sponsors want to show up. When are we actually going to see real professional football? I sure hope it'll be this millinium.
