Boycott all NFL products!
 
With this post I am asking everyone to boycott purchasing all NFL products until every Saints fan gets a public apology from the commissioner himself for trying to claim "Who Dat". That apology must also include an admission that greed was the primary factor in the NFL's original claim.

WITHOUT THESE 2 POINTS BEING MET, WE WON'T BUY YOUR SH*T!

If you can't stand up for something that you're truly passionate about you should've been born without legs!

Heck I get a lot of my struff off e-bay from China.

SO it probably isn't "Official NFL".

The last item I bought was one of VIlma's "Domeland Security" shirts & its not NFL.

Screw the NFL & the money whores they rode in on!!

Re: Boycott all NFL products!
 
Other than an occasional Saints hat, I never have purchased many NFL products so none of this impacts me as a consumer, to be quite honest.

I would not purchase stuff like that anyway... retail high priced bootleg shirts or saints wear. I think this is a mountain out of a molehill, but that is just me.

I don't agree with the NFL and am not defending them. They DO have
a right to protect what truly is their property rights, but who dat isn't
part of that stable of trademarks. No one here has ever said that.

My favorite quote so far

Quote:

Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., said it is "unfortunate that the NFL is exploiting a phrase that has been part of Louisiana's culture for more than a century. Who Dat Nation deserves better. I am exploring several options to sack the NFL's greediness, including removing the league's tax exempt status."

Just for the record I also think they have rights to specific NFL merchandise or logo's but I also don't think that they have a right make a claim and then just slime off into the darkness when they are called on it. I think they need to pay and pay they will.

I just spent $131.00 on 'WHO DAT NATION" T-Shirts and the NFL won't get one red cent, those sons of Beeswaxers
