Super Bowl Copyright and Infringement. FUCK the NFL.

Obviously the NFL isn't aware of Fair use U.S. Copyright code 17; § 107.

From the first link, The DSM Group:

The NFL trademarked the terms “Super Bowl” and “Super Sunday.” We’re hoping that didn’t just put you in manic mode as you realized the ads you are finalizing either in-house or for a client includes “Super Bowl.”

The NFL even went as far as trademarking slogans, catchphrases and team names associated with the NFL teams. Companies have been advertising around the Super Bowl with synonyms such as “Big Game” or “Game Day.”

According to Ken Basin, a trademark and entertainment attorney in Los Angeles, “the NFL aggressively sends out cease-and-desist letters if “Super Bowl” is used without permission in a commercial context.” This does not necessarily put a company in a legal mess rather than just further scare them not to use the term.

While the NFL's precious trademark terms are not used in any connection to a commercial context at this blog...Fuck Off, NFL and Roger Goodell.

Super Bowl. NFL Super Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. NFL Super Bowl. NFL Super Bowl Sunday.  Super Bowl. Super Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. NFL Super Bowl. NFL Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. NFL Super Bowl. NFL Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. NFL Super Bowl. NFL Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. Super Bowl. Super Sunday. NFL Super Bowl.

This NFL bullshit is the same as Thompson-Reuters and AP. "You cannot reprint our material without express permission." Uh-huh. Well, good luck with that.

I'll be waiting for receipt of that aggressive cease and desist notice. In the meantime, if I can think of a way to use the terms "Super Bowl" and "NFL Super Bowl" in a commercial manner, I'll publish that post.

 Roger Goodell, the $75 Million biggest cry-baby in the SUPER BOWL WORLD.

NASCAR Owners say they will fire Drivers who protest National Anthem

NASCAR doesn't fuck around. They have an expectation that their employees will demonstrate professionalism and civility. From Business Insider:

[NASCAR] team owners said they would come down hard on any drivers who did not stand during the national anthem. That included NASCAR legend Richard Petty, owner of Richard Petty Motorsports.

"Anybody that don’t [sic] stand up for the anthem oughta be out of the country, period," Petty said[.] "What got ’em where they’re at? The United States."

When Petty was asked if his drivers would be fired if they protest during the anthem as Trump called for, Petty emphatically said, "You're right."

Athletes brought criticism upon themselves by visibly protesting the Flag and National Anthem. The issue of protesting "something" by athletes is not new and did not begin with what President Donald Trump said on Friday.

Ask the folks who experienced the recent hurricanes and flooding and fires if they care about the coddled, delicate, highly paid athletes whining about criticism for - really - what is nothing more than asking them to demonstrate a fraction of civility and professionalism.

I can respect an athlete who protests (anything) by not exiting the locker room until the National Anthem is finished. Their actions speak louder than those who feel the need to advertise protesting whatever it is they're protesting.

Roger Goodell is a Cry Baby

From Bleacher Report:

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell released a statement Saturday morning after United States President Donald Trump criticized NFL players kneeling during the American national anthem and the league's effort to remove fierce hits from the sport Friday night.
[.]
"Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities," [Goodell said].

What a dick!

NFL Cry Baby Roger Goodell

Am I missing something? Did someone say they respect the NFL?

Do you think Roger will get over this outrageous and vehement attack on his precious NFL? Will Roger require counseling and therapy? Is there a "gofundme" page for Roger? Shut up, hike up your skirt and go enjoy, what has to be, a very nice life.

Respect for the NFL...
