    Basically it talks about the NFL enforcing the use of the term "$up3r 80VV1" (<--- written in l33t so as to not get GRB sued) and shutting down churches who were rebroadcasting on screens too large. The law reads screens larger than 55" and having more than 6 speakers (anyone with 5.1 and a 55" tv??).

    Amusing read. Maybe the NF1 (don't want to infringe on that one either) can get themselves as hated by their consumers as the RIAA.

    They certainly are on their way to RIAA status.

    Not planning on watching the game on any size TV on Sunday at this point.

    I usually don't watch the game unless it's one particular team....

    This is right in line with the NFL licensing suing peewee football leagues that used names from NFL teams without paying a licensing fee. You know, there could never ever be another team named Lions or Cowboys.

    I'm all for making money, but the greed of corporations just pisses me off.....

    NLF = Not Fucking Likely (to use our likeness) is already having a FIT in New Orleans as the Saints fans are calling them selves the Who Dat! Nation and silk screening Who Dat! on NLF footballs, T-Shirts and every other damn thing related to the Soup Bowl.

    And are dropping cease and desist like snow flakes in Colorado.
    Rat Bastards of the professional sports leagues.
