     rights deal with BellSouth which will rename the team's new
     6,000-seat ballpark BellSouth Park, according to James Beach
     of the Chattanooga TIMES & FREE PRESS. The deal, which
     sources value at $1M, also includes a 10-year package that
     gives BellSouth telecom advertising exclusivity at the
     ballpark and on the radio (TIMES & FREE PRESS, 9/10).

     the Single A Augusta GreenJackets to sell naming rights to

     valued at $100,000 annually, and says that the first year it
