Your official Devils Ray newspaper

by Bob Timmermann

The St. Petersburg Times has entered into "multi-year, exclusive sponsorship affiliation" with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

The newspaper will be the "presenting sponsor" for the Devil Rays website and there will be signs for the newspaper all throughout Tropicana Field.

The Devil Rays apparently did a market survey of all their season ticket holders about this and they both thought it would be OK.

Time for an ethics panel.

Although since the Trib owns the Cubs, Disney owns the Mighty Ducks, etc., maybe ethics has gone the way of the dinnysouers.

Yeah, pretty much. The Boston Globe (and ultimately the NY Times) owns a piece of the Red Sox, too. (I won't even mention the former owner of the Dodgers. Too painful)
