I was watching some MMA last night on Fox1 and noticed a lot of guys wearing Venum sportswear with a logo that looks very similar to this site's logo. Law, as the resident esquire of this place I think there are grounds for copyright and logo infringement. Of course you would get your standard 30% fee from any winnings out of this lawsuit and Ox would get 50%. I'm only asking for the remaining 20% to be split between the active members of this site.

Well I'm sure nothing will come of it, and if something does, now we have a fall guy. Good work TAG :D

Well my old law professor always said don't sue someone without money or insurance, so perhaps Ox is OK but might have to change the logo a little if challenged.

It's actually somewhat close to what was the real inspiration for the logo. In fact, those guys appeared to have ripped off the logo from that real inspiration, the 2nd-generation Dodge Viper logo:

I always loved this logo and sent it to a graphic designer friend of mine and told him to use it as inspiration. So, using that logo and this pic, he created the logo.

In fact, here was the first draft of the GCMB logo:

I told him to close the mouth more and the rest is history.

Their logo could be a venomous spider. Our's can only be a gator & its colors are relative to the school.
In theirs color means nothing.

Pretty sure that's not the first time Ox has uttered those words. :rimshot:

Ive never seen any evidence of that.
As much as you've been screaming about offensive line you're probably right.
