Super Bowl Commercial – Early Entry

Bud Light does it again

Cease and desist news

Who Dat gonna stop the people

With all the excitment and joy that comes with the Saints first trip to the Super Bowl there must be a little bad news. Well this bad news comes straight form the NFL. It seems they have been sending out cease and desist orders to businesses printing or selling “Who Dat” items. Here is the NFL’s reason:

“Any unauthorized use of the Saints colors and other [marks] designed to create the illusion of an affiliation with the Saints is equally a violation of the Saints trademark rights because it allows a third party to ‘free ride’ by profiting from confusion of the team’s fans, who want to show support for the Saints.”

Experts say this is a bit of a legal grey area, but these businesses lack the legal firepower or money to fight the mighty NFL (something we are well aware of). But at least someone’s got their back, Sen. David Vitter and challenger Rep. Charlie Melancon have sent a letter to the NFL Commissioner saying that they are printing their own “Who Dat” tees (seen above) and to “Please either drop your present ridiculous position or sue me.” Nice work gentlemen! “Who Dat” belongs to the people. In fact it was first heard 130 years ago in New Orleans at minstrel shows. Then it was used as a rally cry by St. Augustine high school. Then it the 1980’s it was adopted by Saints fans. Let me say that again, adopted by the Saints fans. Keep fighting the good fight.

Pigskin tussle Update 2

It’s all set

Colts Vs. Saints. We’re thinking it’s going to be a good one. Get your beers chilled, your wings ordered. Sit back and enjoy the game (and commercials). All you Jets and Vikings fans, thanks for playing. We’ll be packing up and shipping all Pigskin Tussle boxes post game.

Speaking of Jets fans. Who know this guy was one?

2010 – Jets Fan

2009 – Giants Fan

Maybe next year he’ll be rocking a Mets jersey.

Pigskin tussle Update

All bets are off

The Pigskin Tussle is officially closed… We were a bit surprised at the lopsided turn out. It seems not too many of you are betting on the under dog. We shall see if that’s a wise idea. Good luck to all who entered!

On a side note, the Hope for Haiti Now Telethon is going on tonight. Maybe it can be a little reminder to donate, if you can.

Text “GIVE” to 50555, or call 1-877-99-HAITI.
