Texas Trademarking "Stronghorns"

[BusSport]

Texas is trademarking the nickname "Stronghorns", a pun on Longhorns and new Head Coach Charlie Strong. From ESPN:

The UT System has already moved to trademark "Stronghorns," according to records with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The application was filed Jan. 7, two days after Texas announced Strong's hiring.

too late. I already did it. They be mad bros....

 

[Red_Alert]

They'll make some moolah off of that move.

Shoulda squatted on that web address as soon as he was hired. They would have paid out the ass for it.

 

[Brasky]

looks like some ad site already squatted on it.

Sounds like the name of a male enhancement supplement.

I can see why they didn't do this for Mac "Brownhorn" sounds like a gay sexual term.

smart move. Now they just need to get an NFL team to fall in love with it and then have them make royalty payments every year

Now "Weakhorns" joins "Whorns" and "Wronghorns" in the name repertoire.

You Cheaters [and Farmers] need to keep your stories straight.
