My Big Fat Greek Deficit

Look, if the Greeks are going to climb out of the economic equivalent of the Hot Gates of Shit they put themselves in, it's gonna take some forward thinking.

And when I think of forward thinking, I think of the iconic and tradition-laden National Football League (remember I am an idiot)

Do what NFL owners do to bring in gads of revenue they don't even need...

Yup, that's right...start selling naming rights left and right!

Can anyone say "Invesco Field at the Parthenon on the Acropolis of Athens"? No? Well it doesn't matter because once Invesco pays that money people will call the thing whatever the hell they want and hang 'em if Invesco wants their money back.

That brilliant marketing strategy in conjunction with a few publicity photos of that orange snow-skating dude smoking a fatty while looking down from Mt. Olympus and maybe some Olympia beercans from the 70's lying around Olympia...

...or getting Fifth Third Bank to host their ironically not ironically titled 1/2 marathon on the actual Battlefield of Marathon and you got yerself more money than Pericles' friends can throw on a funeral pyre in a fortnight

???

And if all that fails, maybe Athens can put in a bid to host the Olympics. That's a sure money maker. Right?

Oh...
