Who Dat Holds The Trademark To Who Dat? NFL Threatens While WhoDat Inc. Asks Why?
,----[ Quote ]
| It seems like every year there's some sort
| of controversy over trademarks and the
| Superbowl. Of course, the NFL has been
| famous for aggressively defending
| trademarks.

| The Monistere brothers seem particularly
| annoyed by the NFL bullying small t-shirt
| makers, saying that they're more than
| happy to grant licenses to those folks to
| produce Who Dat merchandise, and merchants
| have said that the NFL communication has
| been tremendously threatening and
| aggressive, while the Monistere's have
| been quite friendly and accommodating.
