ARLINGTON, Texas -- The new $1.1 billion Dallas Cowboys stadium doesn't have an announced sponsor yet -- but now it has a name.

Team owner Jerry Jones announced Wednesday that the venue in Arlington will be called Cowboys Stadium.

Country star George Strait will headline the opening event at Cowboys Stadium. The June 6 concert will also feature Reba McEntire, Blake Shelton and Julianne Hough from "Dancing With the Stars."

The Cowboys on Aug. 21 will host the Tennessee Titans in their first preseason game at the new venue, which replaces Texas Stadium in Irving.

It should be called Tom Landry Stadium but at least it doesn't have one of those awful sponsor names although I'm sure it will eventually.

That's the thing Sonny, Jerry Jones was shopping naming rights for the stadium and there have been no takers.

I'm kind of glad.

I just miss the old days when Stadiums were named after People and other important things in that city. I'd prefer Jerry's World over a sponsor.

So do I. I refuse to call the ballpark where the Cleveland Indians play anything but Jacobs Field. I refuse to call it that - that corporate name.

That place was and will always be to me - and many others - The Jake!!
