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.

Ox, if your sued, TAG should have to pay the judgment.

Well, I just got a phone call from a legal representative of Venum Sportswear, Inc.

It wasn't good. :facepalm:

I was told there would be paperwork coming to me in the mail.

I hope you are joking, because the logos (in my opinion) are not close enough to confuse the copyright. They are clearly two different things.

Perhaps they are a potential sponsor or might make some stuff with our logo on it.

I am not a lawyer but I think that potential confusion is a part of any suit and here there is none, we don't make sports ware.

Maybe Law is a Defense Attorney? :dunno:
I don't know how you could possibly think he was a defense attorney, he's always been offensive as hell.
Maybe Brad should give his bag and his hamster to TAG

I think the gator is just too happy with that big smile on it's face. We want to strike fear in the heart of our competition! The venom logo is pissed, our gator just took some Prozac

A little off topic but I was wondering what ever happened to that guy that used to always post MMA stuff on the old board only to be ridiculed unmercifully by 90% of the regulars there? Is he on this board now?

Yes I knew, and of course I was just suggesting a potential sponsor, and in some small way educating the folks.

I think that was GatorKen. We need to find him. GatorKen might be TheJosh.

I'm not so sure that would be a good idea.....The way he used to get hammered over there he might just want to call the owners of Venom to let know about Ox's choice of logo.

I liked Ken. He was funny. Ox razzed him quite a bit. I saw a little earlier in the year that he was posting on the gsmb. He's a solid poster.

That's why you're a good mod. You keep up and acknowledge just about every poster.
