We all know how our nation loves Football. From youngsters playing flag football in our parks to metro high school teams on Friday nights to the big bruts we watch on our big screens, it is a huge part of the Fall season.
Whether you are a NFL football fan or not, the Super Bowl is fun to watch even if it is just for the commercials. Both men and women can enjoy the chips and dips on a snowy winter Sunday afternoon while watching the final big game of the NFL season. I was reminded recently by Broadcast attorney David Oxenford that the phrase “Super Bowl” is a registered tradmark, which has belonged to the NFL since 1969, and the League has been aggressively been enforcing its rights on this. When you are promoting or advertising for something Super Bowl related, it is recommended that you refer to it as “the big game” unless you are officially sanctioned. Virtually everyone on the planet will know what you are talking about and if they don’t…do you really want them anyway?
Go Bears! Oh wait, I have to wait for this Fall to roll around before yelling that phrase!
