UFL team names

Per the footnote:

As per entries in the United States Patent and Trademark Office database, searchable under "United Football League" at USPTO.gov

 

Organizations often file phony names with USPTO which are used as ways to track internal discussion 'betas" to finally copyrighted names. Not saying this is the case this time but just because they put in a copyrighted name or logo does not mean it will be used; the Bills have done same thing on unused logos.

Las Vegas Locomotives? What idiot thought of that, and what moron approved it?

 

Locomotives? Las Vegas?

 

Wasn't there someone smarter around, like a half-wit, who could have come up with something like the Las Vegas Aces? Heck, even Kings or Jacks would work.

 

Locomotives? WTF?

 

But...who cares?

im guessing that they really want to call them the "Locos" but were afraid of PC backlash from the Spanish community. so they went with Locomotives and now can call them the Locos without any "guilt".

You didn't hear about the $8 billion that was added to the stimulus package by Nevada Senator Harry Reid for the high speed rail from Los Angeles to Las Vegas? That's your tax money at work. World's most expensive team mascot.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. -- A high-speed train connecting Las Vegas to Los Angeles is one step closer to reality.

 

The Secretary of Transportation has designated a high-speed rail corridor between the two cities. This opens up any group to seek federal money to help build the rail line.

 

For nearly three decades, there has been talk of a high-speed train between Las Vegas and California but the Secretary's announcement makes it more likely.

 

Senator Harry Reid says the congestion on I-15 between Los Angeles and Las Vegas could be avoided.

 

"Take a drive. Go to Southern California. That will answer all the questions why we need high-speed rail," said Senator Harry Reid, (D) Nevada. He, along with Secretary Ray LaHood, announced the new high-speed rail corridor between the areas. It opens the door for federal funding to help pay for it. In the stimulus plan, $8 billion was set aside for high-speed rail.

 

"What jump starts our opportunity in America is President Obama's initiative that Congress passed to put $8 billion in the economic recovery," said Secretary LaHood, D.O.T.
