    Do you like the new Marketing Theme? I know Sequ will be suiting up in his #15 Spurs jersey and headband.

    I'm not defending it but "suit up" has been around a lot longer than Barney Stinson has. All of my coaches used the term. Who knows? Maybe the Roman Centurions uttered in Latin, "suit up, men!"

    So they only care about the "suits" that sit on the lower level?

    Does this hint at the Spurs new jerseys?

    Do I like this?

    I suppose I like "Come Together" more but both don't really do it for me (hopefully the commercials are okay ). Anyone have any better examples of NBA team marketing slogans?

    Haven't seen the ads, but just as a catch-phrase/slogan at first blush? It's a little generic.

    pretty in' lame, since you asked...

    what really is impressive is that they paid a bunch of money to some ad agency to come up with some lame, weak and uninventive catch phrase...impressive on the part of the ad agency to extort money legally from the spurs

    oh well

    English is not my first language but to me "suit up" sounds a bit too gentleman like and like they want to sell more jerseys. Bad slogan but doesn't matter.

    How about "Live Up," as in:

    Bonner/Jefferson, live up to your contracts.

    Splitter, live up to your hype.

    Blair, live up to the expectations placed on a second-year Spursplayer.

    Hill, live up to the glimpses of immense talent you showed last year.

    Parker, live up to, well, basically everything.

    Manu, just live, for one full season, please.

    Better than "Give Up", I suppose. Manu did have a nice season last year. 74 games, led the Spurs in scoring (regular and playoffs), he did get a broken nose in the playoffs but that didn't keep him from being the NBA steals/game leader in the playoffs. To live for one full season again is a good slogan, though....as are all of the above.

    That's what I was thinking. They probably pitched it as a 2 for 1.

    I'd imagine it's pretty hard to come up with a good slogan though. I can't think of anything good. My question is do they have to come up with something new every season?

    I liked 'One Team. One Goal'. Especially when 'Mission Accomplished' was added to it.
