  1. Amusing idea -  using college colors on NFL helmets.  https://thesportsdrop.com/combining-nfl-helmets-with-the-colors-of-local-college-teams/

    "With all due respect to any other city in the state of Texas, only Dallas would get the honor of combining the legendary Dallas Cowboys color scheme with that of the beloved University of Texas Longhorns."

    "While there are some people in the state who’d argue any college-NFL helmet for the state of Texas should be burnt orange, there’s nice symmetry here."

    This.   Sam was on target all night - Epps either wouldn't or couldn't make the damn catch.

    Watch again. OSU defender got his hand in and tipped the ball. Good play by him.

    What do you propose?  NCAA isn't going to do anything that gives the appearance of jeopardizing player safety.  It sucks to be sure, just don't know what you can do.

    Maybe they can implement a cramp protocol, and the injury timeouts can be sponsored by Midol.

    Well that and, you know, losing the trademark to our awesome fucking logo. But don't let me stop y'all from hating the man!

    Maybe some of the posters here can be in charge, let every high school in the country that wants to use it do so, then explain to all the Texas alumni and fans how you just didn't want to be greedy when Texas loses the trademark and a flood of shitty merchandise hits the market (and also Oklahoma and A&M merchandise vendors no longer have to pay us to put it upside down on stuff).

    Which raises another question, if a license includes the right to exercise quality control.  Can Texas prohibit any licensee (e.g. OUsucks and aggy) from marketing merchandise with the horns down?  

  5. As other posters have pointed out, a trademark owner has to take reasonable action to protect against unauthorized use or the exclusive right to use may be lost.  I don't think any of us care that some random high school chooses to use the most recognizable logo in collegiate athletics - in fact it should be considered a compliment.  But most of us would care if the university lost the right to exclusive use, and all sorts of cheap and tawdry merchandise could legally be sold with the logo.  

     

    Edit:  Huckleberry beat me to it.

    In addition to all of the in-state commits except for Demond Demas, who has family obligations, all of the in-state commitments are expected in town.

    So, all of the in-state commitments are expected in town, in addition to all of the in-state commits.  (Except for Demond Demas, who has family obligations.)  But, all of the in-state commitments are expected.  And so are the in-state commits.  And all of that is in addition to all of the in-state commits.

    I’m amazed at how you try to minimize winning a World Series like it’s so easy yet the rangers haven’t done it. Makes sense.

    If Ranger fans are aggy, like you say, they would claim the Astros' WS as their own.
