NFL Orders Shops To Stop Selling 'Who Dat' Gear

Many businesses in New Orleans have received cease and desist order for printing and selling Who dat shirts. The NFL says that any unauthorized use of the Saints colors and other marks designed to create the illusion of an affiliation with the Saints is equally a violation of the Saints trademark rights because it allows a third party to 'free ride' by profiting from confusion of the team's fans, who want to show support for the Saints.

Sometimes the NFL needs to heck off.

 

What a freaking joke.

 

Go heck yourself Goodell.

Wouldn't want to help out a ravaged local economy...

 

You said it better.

 

Because you gotta remember that the Saints belong to the NFL - New Orleans is just where they play.

 

:bang head:

 

So the NFL now owns the rights to colors? Nice...

 

Rep dude...

 

um, i don't think the nfl has the phrase 'Who Dat' trademarked so they will not win this case.

 

I needs to get me one of dem shirts.

 

The bigger question should be who owns "Who Dat?"

The Bengals or the Saints...
