Spearfeather Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I typed in " Original Hogs " into the Patent and Trademarks Office database, and sure enough, there it is. O-Line Entertainment. Looks legit. This whole rebranding thing has gone well, hasn't it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus T Firefly Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 How could they have not locked down the trademark for this a long time ago? No one needs to answer, I know the reason. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FootballZombie Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Whats funny is that Joe filed this trademark in July. If the team at the time of reveal knew they wanted to TM Hogs and roll out a mascot surrounding the idea, they could have easily beaten Joe to the patent office and gotten in line first. Instead, they danced around the subject while advertising to the world their possible directions, one of which being Hogs related, which gave Joe a pretty massive incentive to lock in the trademark first, something he had not done for DECADES. Monumentally stupid bit-o branding blunder there. Unreal. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Are they delusional? The Hogs just released a whole ass memo about how they will not in fact be there and have not been happy with whatever collaboration the team is lying about. Brutal 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reporters have the phone numbers of team spokespeople, I don’t think it’s that odd. What does it matter if the statement is a text, email, or notes app screenshot? It’s not really meant to be seen by the entire internet in that form probably, it’s meant to be disseminated by the reporters it’s sent to. I think it’s common practice to just post it though, so that there can’t be any mistaking the wording/context. But I don’t really see any reason why an email or something would be more professional, it’s just words on a screen.

Dan has always - from Day 1 - tried to ride the coattails of the previous generation. I'm not surprised by this in the least. I cannot wait for this man to be gone. That's an understatement. I want the new owner to blow up everything off the field. Coaches, FO all gone. Not a damn one of them have the ability to push this team into the upper echelon of the NFL. I'm just riding out this "been there a million times and done that" season. I can't wait for it to be over and for new ownership to move in. 2 hours ago, Wildbunny said: Those commanders are sure closely tied to our great past. I'm hoping and praying that that is exactly where the "Commanders" will be within the next 24 months - in the past. IMO, not one aspect of this rebranding has worked. Not one. Uniforms, logos, stupid (and copied from another franchise) slogans of "Command this, Command that", even the ugly color change from our Redskins yellow to....whatever in the hell orange-yellow color they are using now. Every single thing needs to be changed, IMO. I'm not saying everything will be, however. Edited December 26, 2022 by Redwards 3 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickyJ Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Imagine how awesome it could have been if the team had decided to go for Warhogs or something stupid like that as the actual team name and have Joe Jacoby show up and obliterate it. Oh yeah, we still have that Sonny Jurgensen tribute to make. I wonder what they've got in store for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommanderInTheRye Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) Team just announced that the hogs will not be attending. The Snyder's have now decided to make the day yet another celebration of Sean Taylor. In a predictably classy move, at half time, Tanya will be unveiling a 50 foot paper mache replica of Sean Taylor dressed in a vintage hoggette style skirt, matching blouse, and pushup bra. Finishing touches include a gold handbag, hog nose and burgundy red bottom stiletto heels. "Ta-daaa!" Limited edition hog noses with Sean Taylor's number and Mr. Snyder's signature on them will be on sale before and during the game, all proceeds going to Dan and Tanya's personal non-profit charity.

Cooleyfan1993 Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Apparently the hogs don’t actually have a problem with the team commemorating them, just with the team trying to take hogs as the mascot. Such stupid, unneeded drama. Can’t wait till Snyder is gone. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spearfeather Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 So, we're the Commanders, but we don't have " military colors ", and a pig is our mascot. None of this makes sense. 1 1 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A normal team with a normal owner would have dealt that before doing anything by talking and dealing with them so that never happens. And anyway, if we were a normal team with a normal owner they wouldn't have complained at all. This story feels like "we just want to **** up with Dan".

LetThePointsSoar Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Dan is literally the GOAT. Like there is NO one that has been or ever will be on his level. The GOAT at ****ing stuff up. He does it so effortlessly and at an amazing and consistent level. I still never ceased to be amazed by it, even after nearly 30 years. Get the **** out already and get on with this sale. 5 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted December 27, 2022 Author Share Posted December 27, 2022 I wonder how many wire hangers it took to make the ST21 .......thing. I wonder if Dan and Jason sit on the floor together and made that. Are were going to honor guys who aren't going to show up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
