Another insult for Enron. They paid $100 Million for 30 year's naming rights to the Houston Astros; the Astros just bought back the remaining 27 years for a paultry $2.1 million. Now everybody carefully watch who the Astros sell the naming rights to next time... <g>

Edit: Amazing line in the article: "The Astros said [Enron] had paid it $200,000 to buy suites and tickets since declaring bankruptcy Dec. 2." I'll be those who lost their life savings will be glad to hear the execs can still go to the ballpark this summer.
