Great Post!
But there would have to be multiple $100M deals. I think they're still like $300M off of "budget" which is still $200 short.

Funny how the 49ers go the way of Dr. Dre. Beats by Dr. Dre headphones are made by Monster. HP has a new Dr. Dre approved laptop out as well.

No it wasn't he's right. It was named for Monster Cable, a consumer electronics company known mostly for making audio and video cables. They also make other stuff like headphones and other audio equipment.

Yup!

The rights to the stadium name were licensed to 3Com Corporation from September 1995 until 2002, for $900,000 a year. During that time, the park became known as 3Com Park at Candlestick Point. In 2002, the naming rights deal expired, and the park then became officially known as San Francisco Stadium at Candlestick Point. On September 28, 2004, a new naming rights deal was signed with Monster Cable, a maker of cables for electronic equipment, and the stadium was renamed Monster Park. However, just over a month later, a measure passed in the November 2 election stipulated that the stadium name to revert back to Candlestick permanently after the contract with Monster expired in 2008.
