I’ve never been happy that the NE Revolution have UHC as their shirt sponsor. The company has a documented history of being really horrible to customers. That said, if you think that the Revs can find a new shirt sponsor in 5 days you are showing your ass.

👶 When a baby born today is in the sixth grade.... 🏚️ When a new thirty year mortgage isn't yet half-way paid off.... 📺 When a much loved TV show that starts this year nears its final season... You should be able to get to work, heat your home, eat broccoli for 80% less CO2 than it took last year.
