The MCI Center is about to become the Verizon Center. Verizon Communications Inc. completed its purchase of MCI Inc. on Friday, making way for a change at the home of the Washington Wizards, Capitals and Mystics. The name switch will officially take place sometime before the end of March.
I liked the MCI Center. But it still can be called "The Phone Booth".
And really, that's what's important.
It'll take a bit to get used to, but it doesn't sound any better or worse to me. Something I probably won't even think about after a month or two of hearing it.
