Can We Just Go Back to The Boston Garden, PLEASE?!?!

I can’t believe they are renaming the Boston, AGAIN.  This is getting old and super annoying for some reason.  Celtics fans just call it the Garden anyway so why don’t we just go back to the original Boston Garden name?  Banks change names every other year these days and that’s why we always have to deal with this crap.  Why couldn’t we have had a solid company like AT&T or Sony buy the naming rights to the arena?  It just makes the team look stupid when the arena name is being changed every couple of years and your own fans don’t even know what to call it.  We gave up a long time ago and just went back to the good old Garden.   
I really don’t like the idea of selling out the Garden for naming purposes but I understand it has to be done because of the revenue gained from it.  That’s life these days in the big arenas and excessively expensive pro sports.  I just feel like there has to be another way to allow companies to sponsor the arena without having to rename it all the time.  Who the F even uses TD BankNorth anyway?  I don’t think I’ve ever even seen one of their banks or ATMs anywhere near the “TD BankNorth Garden”.  What a waste of money… 

Here's the history of the Garden and it's ridiculous name issues over the years:
