It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to big league #baseball in Oakland. Yes, the place was a dump but it was the stage for many great moments and spectacular players. We wish the #OaklandAs the very best in their last home game, in #Oakland, today. RIP Oakland A’s. @MLB

Did you really think #NCAAsports programs would not be passing through the added cost of revenue sharing with athletes? At least the U. of Tennessee is transparent about adding a 10% surcharge on tickets (#talentfee). Expect more schools to follow. #lawX abcnews.go.com/Sports/tennes…

Did you know that Hugh Hefner is interred at Westwood Memorial Park, right next to the crypt of Marilyn Monroe? I find that interesting but not for the reasons you may think.

Rather, these side-by-side crypts provide a lesson in the posthumous right of publicity. Heffner died a California resident and thus his estate was able to secure his posthumous right of publicity, bring a claim against a clothier using Hef’s #NIL, and secure a settlement.

Monroe was deemed a #NewYork resident at the time of her death and, at that time, New York did not recognize the posthumous #rightofpublicity. So anyone can use her #NILfreely and Marilyn’s estate can do nothing about it. Turns out it really matters where you die. #LawX

This month we are focusing on #trademark licensing! #lawtwitter
Owning a trademark is more than just brand protection, it grants the owner the right to leverage and grow their brand recognition and reputation for additional revenue, such as through licensing it to third parties. #licensing #trademark #legalnews #lawtwitter #trademarktwitter

A big congrats to the Healdsburg @PrunePackers for their dominant season in the collegiate #PacEmpireLeague which has them in the championship finals tonight and tomorrow (if necessary). My daughter @SofSeitel7, has been working as operations manager for the Packers this summer.
This has given me a chance to meet some outstanding young ballplayers and real gentlemen, like @realEamonnLance, @TuckerBougie, and @CarusoCole, to name just a few. Tickets to the #championship games can be purchased here: tix.com/ticket-sales/prunepa…

A big shoutout to @Google for their Doodle Game! It sucked me in, and I spent at least an hour playing and admiring the artwork. If you haven’t played this yet, it’s highly recommended.
Your employer will (not) thank you: searchplayground.google/pari…

I don't love the new name @WNBAValkyries, but I *DO* love how they broke down how they selected each element of the new #trademark logo! #lawtwitter So much goes into designing a fantastic #brand! Welcome to the Bay! Can't wait! #wnba valkyries.com/news/golden-st…
U. of Arizona basketball’s @OumarBallo32 sought to leverage his remaining year of eligibility with a reported #NIL asking price of $1.2 million. Apparently, his monetary demand was met. He’ll be suiting up for the Indiana #Hoosiers next year. @NCAA

#Greymarket goods usurp a company’s distribution network by selling into territories where there may be no distribution, or where an exclusive distributor is appointed. Additionally, they are usually sold at a steep discount, which undermines a brand’s value in the marketplace.

Anyone with a passing interest in #collegesports knows that not all Division I schools are equal. There are those generating millions from #basketball and #football – #Alabama, #OhioState, #Oregon, etc. – and those that are not. msn.com/en-gb/news/us/ncaa-p…
The recent proposal of NCAA President Charlie Baker allowing highly resourced schools to pay some of their athletes simply accounts for this reality. Sure, it will take some getting used to college teams looking (and feeling) more like the pros.

If we are going to rip off the tired student-athlete band-aid, let’s go all the way and do it now, while we are mourning the loss of the Pac 12 and soon to have Pacific Coast schools playing in the Atlantic Coast Conference. #NCAA #divisionone #NIL #studentathletes #proathletes
