University of Phoenix Stadium

This is the weirdest case of corporate naming rights of a stadium that I can think of. Sure, I understand that the University of Phoenix Stadium is the home field of the Arizona Cardinals, and its name it really just an advertisement for a massive for-profit college.

But doesn't it symbolize that something is off in higher education? A college has a football stadium that bears its name, but it doesn't have a football team. What's up with that?
