SUPERBOWL, SUPER BOWL...

I'm not terribly impressed by a bunch of millionares playing a game for a bunch of billionares. I'm even less impressed when the final two finally meet on the field. But what cracks me up is something I'm noticing now concerning it all.
Last year, you heard the term SUPERBOWL less and less. People (and businesses especially) started refering to it as "the big game" or "super Sunday", etc. This year, you hear it even less. Looks like the NFL isn't allowing anyone to use the term/name/brand SUPERBOWL without paying for it. More so this year than ever. Do you believe that? They can take you for the ride, charge what they do for the tickets, but you can't use the "brand" for anything (that by the way might actually build interest in it all).
To see if the NFL spy servers are working hard, let's check for a S&D letter from these guys...so here goes:
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,
SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL, SUPERBOWL,


Let's see if their web crawlers are working ;)
Enjoy kids!

  • Hey, I don't mean to nag, but you mean C&D, right (cease and desist?).

    Anyway, great post. I agree that it's absurd of the NFL to police the name for no apparent reason (aside from greed, perhaps, and lameness).

    What's the world coming to?
