50/50 shot of getting on TV?

You realize that the apparel company isn’t subject to NCAA rules, right?

It looks like one Deadspin writer isn’t familiar with fair use

Meanwhile it’s up to the Grayson to ensure no one else is trying to profit off him and not the NCAA. Quite a system they have in place.

“Rather than trying to argue that the NCAA’s regulations are grossly unfair to the athletes and should therefore be invalid, or something similar, Smack Apparel president Wayne Curtiss instead tries making an irrelevant argument about satire in his response to the cease-and-desist.”

this. NCAA rules don’t apply to random businesses. Anyway, the NCAA claimed for years that things like “DUKE player #3" was not a likeness to an athlete.

I’m absolutely gobsmacked to see a Deadspin writer cite NCAA amateurism regulations as somehow controlling the business activities of an unaffiliated private business.

Harmlessly passing someone in a no passing zone isn’t being an “asshole” . Trying to murder two people is.

Did Fagin really attempt to snub Walton, or was it more of an artful dodge?

would it kill him to mention it every now and then?

I think you just plagiarized a quotation typically attributed to Alexander Hamilton.

“Several Celtics, understandably, complained about the Suns pulling this sort of gimmickry.”

“None of our main guys say no to the baseball classic.”

Are you fucking kidding? You think they let it slide because he’s pretty? Seriously? WTF? You think maybe, probably, it’s because he is points leader and the best player in the League?

The reason law enforcement officials aren’t spending time on these types of pools is because they’re 100% legal. As long as the organizer doesn’t take a cut, there’s no law against a friendly wager among friends.

I’ve seen contestants lose it because they pronounced something slightly off, even though they had everything right... so that’s just people erring on the safe side.

D.B. Pooper

Look, if I can still pitch a tent at that age, I’ll be shouting it from the rooftops.

This is shitty news. Of course, as an athlete, it could have been worse. At least it didn’t metastasize to the locker room.

I mean, I am not sure I’ve ever met anyone, who is vocal about their male feminism, who isn’t using it to get laid. Actual male feminists usually don’t talk about it and just treat women equitably.
