@lolfightmepls Definitely time to start Chubb and Henry going forward. They are both strong RB1 and starting to get going. You should have won this week too. Russell Wilson is a monster.

@lolfightmepls Definitely start Henry. He is due for a big game and hasnt hit the endzone yet but should this week against the Vikings.

@lolfightmepls How’s the team doing so far?

[Copyright Counselors @CopyriteCounsel]

@lolfightmepls @Nixon_Corral Ekeler and Henry are a good 1-2 at rb, Wilson is a solid starter and Ryan a great backup at qb, but I would be starting Chubb over bell at flex. Kupp is great we 3 and kittle is a great te. This a good team, although having 2 rams wrs will be a problem. I’d trade one.

These types of print-on-demand t-shirt/merch companies have been plaguing artists for years. Let's hope this very creative strategy works!

It's one thing for a company to enforce its color TM within its industry, where there is a real danger of brand confusion. It's a stretch to claim that a consumer would confuse an insurance company with T-Mobile because they use the same shade of pink.

In declining to register "widely used phrases" as trademarks, the US PTO has ensured that our precious memes remain in the hands of the public where they belong.

If you think you'll be able to corner a market by branding your business after a market, know that generic trademarks are not eligible for registration with the U.S. PTO. Remember - the more unique the trademark, the better it can protect your brand.

As hilariously entertaining as this case is, it will have an important impact on a creator's ability to control the use of their work. Can't wait to hear the arguments!
