If it weren't for Virginia Slims and Philip Morris there would be no professional women's tennis.

If it weren't for Vantage and RJReynolds there would be fewer PGA tornaments and professional class golf courses.

If it weren't for Winston and RJR NASCAR would not be the spectator sport it is today. I'm not a big fan of NASCAR, but the idea of watching or listening to an MBNA Cup (or whatever the new sponsor is) race just doesn't sond right to me.

Nannyism at it's best has ruined lots of things.

Guess who the new sponsor for the Montreal Grand Prix is, you guessed right......... the taxpayer, I remembe the ANTI's stating that it would be very easy to replace BT, seems like they lied, AGAIN.
