[哨兵報]Magic arena will get new name today
原文:http://myurl.com.tw/7d6t
The Orlando Magic will play in the "Amway Arena" under a naming-rights
agreement that will be announced today, the Orlando Sentinel has learned.
從奧蘭多哨兵報得知,在今天所公佈命名權利的合約下,往後奧蘭多魔術隊將在
名為"Amway Arena"的場館下打球。
Team executives didn't have to look far to find someone willing to put a name
on the building formerly known as TD Waterhouse Centre: Magic owner Rich
DeVos, who co-founded the Amway Corp. in 1959.
球隊高層不必到處找人為前名為TD Waterhouse Centre的場館想名字，因為有人樂意
這麼作:魔術隊老板Rich DeVos在1959年跟人共同經營的公司就叫Amway Corp.
The Ada, Mich., company will put its name on the city-owned arena for the
next four years and have the initial exclusive option to negotiate for the
right to name the team's proposed new arena, according to a city official
familiar with the terms of the deal.
The Ada, Mich.公司在未來的4年裡將對城市所屬的場館命名並且對球隊所蓋好的新
球場有商議新名字的權利，根據市府官方所簽的合約。(這段不太會翻@_@)
The official, who was not authorized to discuss the agreement before its
formal announcement, spoke Wednesday on the condition of anonymity.
在正式宣布之前官方沒有權利去討論這合約,但他們在星期三以匿名的情形下對外說明。
(翻的怪怪的..)
Though the team controls the building's naming rights, the name must be
approved by the City Council. Commissioners likely will be asked to vote on
Monday.
雖然球隊有場館的命名權,所決定的名稱要經過市會議的批准才可以。會議中的委員們
可能會在星期一要求表決。
Amway Corp. will pay the city $1.5 million for the four-year deal, or
$375,000 a year, the official said.
官方表示,Amway Corp.將會根據4年約給付一百五十萬美元給奧蘭多市,或每年37萬5千美元。
TD Waterhouse paid about $1.7 million a year, but the Magic kept most of the
money. In 2005, the city's share was $303,000 after arena improvements.
TD Waterhouse每年付了將近一百七十萬美元,但魔術隊握有絕大部份的錢。
在2005那年,在場館改善(設備or收入)之後奧蘭多市分到30萬3千美元。
It's not clear how much Amway will pay the Magic -- if anything -- under the
agreement. Company officials could not be reached for comment late Wednesday.
不清楚Amway在合約條件下會給魔術隊多少錢。公司官方最晚在星期三前不會發表任何意
見。

翻的不好請多多見諒跟指教
希望本季的魔術隊就跟新的場館名字一樣
充滿新氣象 一飛沖天^^
魔術加油
