Joke

The article is and so are you if you really think this is a story. It's about 3 perfectly healthy guys and one amputee infringing on the trademark of another. So they shouldn't sue him because he is a double amputee and cancer survivor?

Or are you trolling with this?

No

It's about someone at Texas A&M being smart enough to figure out that no one's trying to profit and make money off of their precious little 12th Man title that they think intimidates people that come to play in their stadium. Look at the big SEC school that rakes in hundreds of millions of dollars, suing three ordinary Joes and a double amputee cancer survivor because they think 12th man has some sort of magic to it. It's about not resorting to lawsuits over something that could be easily resolved another way. And with that being said, in the words of Beanie Segal, you can eat a dick with AIDS on the tip.

Uhhh........

"Texas A&M is subject to lose its trademark if it does not actively take action to protect it. "

Direct from the article.

And with that being said, in the words of Beanie Segal, you can eat a dick with AIDS on the tip.

- Way to keep it classy EIO

Universities sue over trademark infringement all the time

Even your beloved Ohio State, which btw has a trademark on O-H-I-O??

You don't think what they're doing is a little extreme?

[Eagle In Ohio]

That's the point

You don't think what they're doing is a little extreme?

If these guys were selling t-shirts and hats and pocketing money and shit like that, then of course A&M has every right to sue, but what they're doing is way over the top.

[Eagle In Ohio]

You can do the same as Sugar

Its a fuckin business dude. Wake up. Its not all unicorn farts in fairy dust.

And if Ohio State did this

Even your beloved Ohio State, which btw has a trademark on O-H-I-O??

I would call them on it as well.

[Riccardo]

Don't you think

OSU asking for $1,000,000 in damages for every t-shirt sold is excessive as well??

At least the aggies aren't looking for money, as others pointed out if they don't defend the trademark they can lose it.

[Eagle In Ohio]

Absolutely I do

It just seems like this could have been handled in a better way. However, I'm not a lawyer, so maybe RSE could answer that question.
