Football T shirts

[lelorov]

Hey guys,

Just like everyone else I'd like to start my own brand of t-shirts, and I'd like to make them football based.

Now I am well aware that using club names and badges is well off the menu, but what about players' names?

If using players' names is forbidden, then can you at least use the club name or player name on your sales website to describe what and who the t-shirt is based on?

For example, if I am going to make a t-shirt with a drawn picture of a footballer (let's say Beckham), along with a slogan that does NOT include any hint as to who the player is with words, can I describe the t-shirt on my website as "Beckham T-shirt"? So just to go over the example once more, the t-shirt has a drawn picture of Beckham on it (so it's a picture that looks like him, but as it's not a photo, who's to prove it's him), and has a slogan on it like for example "England's greatest free kick taker" can I advertise it on my website as "England Beckham T-shirt"?

Heck, I thought were going to tell us you can get us a t shirt printed for a good price. I use to get t shirts at a place in Springfield printed front an back for 4 bucks.
You say a name that is popular I think you'll get hit with a lawsuit. It's like the Bosko sandwich.

Be sure and put a checkmark (sometimes called a swish) on the shirt. That should help your sales.

Can we get some nice low cut t shirts sent to the Kearney moms for the start of football season?
