Ummm HARD PASS[/quote]

Yeah how about no.

That's why the team should move away from anything NA related. If they don't like Redskins, fine. But you don't get to pick the new name. Sorry.

Yeah and in a few years someone will have a problem with it.

I'm so done with this NA related stuff. We need to get out of that game completely.

So how big of a deal is this potentially? I heard Dan Patrick talking about this...this guy supposedly owns almost every mascot name possible and rake Snyder over the coals to get it???

This guy tweeted that he doesn't want any money.. Clearly he wants something though and is an assclown

Not want money??? Wow...I assumed he would be asking for millions! Maybe he's a Redskins fan and will only allow the name usage once Snyder isn't the majority owner!

The case would get tossed out of court so quick. Squatting on trademarks isn't something that really holds up unless you can show you have actual intent on using the name for something legit. It's an act of bad faith. The team has way more $$ than he does to get what they want.

I'll try and find the tweet but he was saying that the Redwolves name will be the hardest to get due to ARK STATE having lawsuits out already with other teams looking for the name.

He was on the Sports Junkies show this morning talking about his trademark holdings. You might be able to find the discussion on their website.

Just call them the Wolves and forget about AK State. All these Red-xxxx names are too forced to try to maintain a connection to Redskins. They need to keep the colors and get away from everything and anything name-wise that creates any association with the word Redskins.

Cyber squatting - I thought that wasnt allowed. I don’t know the legal definition though but it sounds like this is what he is doing. Perhaps that is why he doesn’t want any money for it?

He's trademark squatting. Cyber squatting is related to domain names which also gets you nowhere and is an act of bad faith unless you're going to actually be using it. So unless this guy is going to buy a NFL franchise he's not going to last long in court.

If memory serves he said as much this morning on the Junkies about having to have intent to use the trademark. He didn't sound interested in fighting any battles with the skins because he knows he wont win. I also think he mentioned he is a patent and trademark attorney.
