Re: New Legal Question
by Aaron Cadieux on Sep 24, 2009 at 4:53:08 pm

David,

I have nothing to do with the writing of and development of our spots. I am, however, more concious of the law than my bosses are. If we get sued, I could lose my job, so it's in my best interest to ask these questions. And yes, I am looking for a loophole, because no we can't afford to pay the Patriots, and the car dealership is not an "official" sponsor. And if I had to "read between the lines" on your "thoughts" on the subject, I would guess that you would never try to imply affiliation with an organization without an agreement in place, and that you would never try to take advantage of a loophole.

I've thought more about my original post in the last couple hours, and having her say "Go New England" instead of "Go Pats" would spare us any potential legal ramifications (sp?). After all, the Patriots can't stop us from using their colors, they can only top us from mentioning their name, or using their logo.

Best,

Aaron
