WHO DAT say dey own WHO DAT?
NFL Orders Shops to Stop Selling 'Who Dat' gear
Who Dat Say Who Can Use 'Who Dat'? Trademark Holder Speaks Out
The NFL is doing this under the delusion that the small business owners either won't have the time or the money to fight back.
First of all, this is the Who Dat Nation. Ever seen what happens when you rile us? BBQs and poker runs raise the money while professionals and volunteers among us donate their time. We help our neighbors come back from fires, cancer, car accidents, hurricanes, pompous football organizations, and anything else the universe wants to toss our way.
Secondly, look at the history of "Who Dat". If you believe wikipedia.org, King Leopold of Austria started it in the 1890s. If you believe your mom, dad, or grandparents, then "Who Dat" started in the 1950s at St. Augustine in NOLA.
Finally, the fluer de lis is not specific to the Saints. Look back over French history and you'll see the fluer de lis repeatedly. Neither the NFL nor the Saints originated the fluer de lis either.
All told, the NFL can suck a bag of fetid donkey dick. Bunch of douche nozzles over there trying to money grub the Saints' success.

After reading the story, the original cease and decist order was issued to a particular business that was printing "#whodat" t-shirts as the official website for the who-dat nation.... I can see the NFL defending its "official" position as owner of the property... but come on... give a small business a break.....
