| Sept. 14, 2009 coachron 14 posts | If it slithers beware. I registered my team name just in case so I wouldn't have to wear a flack jacket to protect my back. I can understand players splitting off, but has anyone ever had to deal with s---bags trying to take over a team, and the name? For a few bucks, regester your team name, it will work. I also covers what is called "confusingly simular". Coachron |

There are some really different name out there. If by "registering" name you mean trade mark or copy right, you might have a chance, other wise, even if you had if first, doesn't mean you get to keep it... Which happened recently. Hope it works for ya. |
| Sept. 14, 2009 coachron 14 posts | Thanks much for your response. The thing is, the bad guys are in the same league, and town. I think the registering of the name put up a block. They my use something close, but the infringment covers "confusingly simular" also. Much appreciation. Coachron |
| Sept. 14, 2009 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | I believe I know whom your referring to but, will let it go at that. I just hope you can "work" it in a friendly way. Kinda like one team I know well, did, Original tean was the Sac. Saints and the other became Ain't no Saints. However, these are the same age div\rating. Even if one of ya just added a say #2 , or we were the, used 2 B, or some other distinction to the shirt it might be fun for you both Sorry Dave and John for using you as an example, but it fit. |
| Sept. 14, 2009 coachron 14 posts | Well I have no plan to work it out. These players splintered off to form another team, but when they were unable to,so they submitted a letter to the league director stating I had been voted off as the team manager, and they would be voting in a new manager, a coach, and would keep my registered team name. The votes were just fabricated, for I verified there bogus voteing information, and are confronting them as we speak. They will not take my team or team name. Aloha Coachron |
