ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 The Bills and the NFL previously opposed an attempt to federally trademark a version of a Bills Mafia logo (called the "MAFIA and Buffalo Design"), which resulted in the application to register that trademark being abandoned in early 2016.

Frankly marketing, PR, etc has always been poor IMO. They actually contracted out their website at one point and the company posted the wrong score for a game.

Punching Bag Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 I should trademark "Billsy" and get a payment every time it is used on this board. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reks Ryan Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 It’s the correct business decision. The Bills legal team has been negligent in not filing for the TM 2 - 3 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
