Well you just took all the fun out of that controversy. Now we can't speculate.

What is the nerd equivalent of a mic drop?

So U of U tried to sue him for putting Steve Tate in the dirt?

You should let him back on the condition he changes his name to FutureLitigant Or FutureDefendant

I wondered if he had paid licensing fees.

Isn't it illegal to sell trademarked merchandise? He shouldn't be allowed to.

I don't know, but FutureAD posted this to his facebook page that indicates that

i also find it ironic that the schools can sue, but not the players?
ds7
4/16/16 8:42pm
The player could definitely sue, but the players don't have licensing watchdogs
shimmy
4/17/16 2:54pm
i doubt it...it isn't a "likeness" of the player...it's just a generic face...
ds7
4/17/16 3:44pm
Well what would I know, I just do this for a living.
shimmy

what if you left the name off the jersey?

Are you really breaking down cyberpiracy and adwords precedent? That is some
shimmy

ok, i'll spell it out for you...if you leave the name off the jersey...
ds7

Is that what FutureAD is doing? Generic photos of non descript BYU players?

Of course not, but ds7 has to pretend he knows what he is talking about and he
shimmy

yes...he's taking pieces from NFL figurines and painting them up to look
ds7
4/17/16 5:07pm
My word. This is a parody, right?
shimmy
4/17/16 5:13pm
GUYS GUYS GUYS, COME LOOK AT THE TISSUE BOX HE USED AS AN EXAMPLE OF SOMETHING
shimmy
4/17/16 5:15pm
Yeah, he actually did post a link to some details on the case.
El Jefe
4/17/16 7:31pm
it basically gets into the minutia of selling on ebay...
ds7
4/17/16 7:38pm
He posted a link to a motion in support. Of course they are saying they
shimmy
4/17/16 7:43pm
It was a motion by the plaintiff, posted in the "hall of shame" on the defendant's site.
El Jefe
4/17/16 10:08pm
It was an opposition brief from the Defendant (MLB). The case settled.

i'm questioning whether harvey unga "could sue" for misuse of his likeness...
ds7
4/17/16 5:17pm
Oh. You think the futureAD figurines aren't in the likeness of the players? Well
shimmy
4/17/16 5:21pm
are they enough of a likeness where the player could sue?
ds7
4/17/16 5:24pm
Oh my gosh. Have you read any of his posts? Are you just trolling now?

I'm sure he read the posts. He just didn't comprehend the posts. It's a
