BarleyNY Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 4 minutes ago, SDS said: My thought is that it was the Warriors based on riverboat Ron’s statement about talking to Native American groups and the military, along with a trademark dispute. I figured the dispute was with Golden State. but I don’t believe they would be so careless as to not register the name before that Alexandria lawyer did. That does not seem right at all. I think “Warriors” would be an issue because of Golden State. There doesn’t ever seem to be a new name for a pro team that duplicates an existing one. I know the Columbus Blue Jackets said that was a criteria for their name when they were choosing it. And IIRC Cleveland said the same thing when they thought they’d need a new name.

I think the loathing started when he started selling practicing tickets (which enabled scouts to film it openly) and when he went after season ticket holders in court when they could no longer afford tickets even heirs after season ticket holders died.
