Just don't let JMU catch wind of this, or they'll be on our asses in a heartbeat. Anything sold with this logo now has to have royalties paid to JMU (you notice the little tm on the new shirts?)

Are you fucking shitting me Thayer?

FWIW, Porsche North America threatened to sue my dad for the 944 Cup merchandise we were selling from cafepress. :?


- Ryan T - 10-18-2006

Nope, dead serious. We had to pay a little more for shirts this time because JMU has the royalties to "madison" now. That's why all items printed from here on out by S.O.S. etc with have the tm on it.

How can they trademark the name of a president?

they trademarked it as part of the university name, therefore any merchandise printed with that from university clubs, etc, etc have to pay royalties.

Well, looks like I just bought my last peice of M™M Merch.


- Evan - 10-18-2006

what a crock of shit. When I played on the club Lacrosse team it was only "JMU" ,"James Madison University" , and the colors purple and gold that were trademarked. So we were Madison Lacrosse and used black and gold/yellow. Just like MM.
So now they have extended their trademarks that so the greedy bastards can leech money from their own clubs. fantastic.


- .RJ - 10-18-2006

Lets start our own company. MM enterprises, with the official color of Universal GoldÔäó


- white_2kgt - 10-18-2006

Evan, can you password protect the store? Then only give out the password to people that we know?


- REED - 10-18-2006

how much are the royalties, just out of curiosity?


- Ryan T - 10-18-2006

I'm not sure exactly how much the royalties are.


- Ryan T - 10-18-2006

I wonder if the cafe-press thing could be considered ex-post-facto kind of thing since it was already set up before they trademarked the name?

Feel free to chime in Jess. Smile


- Jess - 10-18-2006

lemme check my Trademarks notes and get back to you on that... :wink:


- HAULN-SS - 10-19-2006

We could just change our name to "MM" - we all know what it means, no royalties

I don't know about that but our stuff should just read "MM." It's cooler and it cuts our beloved school out of the picture.

i think this is actually the most relevant and proper way to deal with it. We're Madison Motorsports and i'm proud of that, the MM has meaning Tongue

If only your school could be proud of you, instead of seeing you as a revenue generator, and giving no regard to your thoughts or opinions, despite the money you've already spent and the effort you've already exerted.
