QB seeks 'Kaepernicking' trademark

WTF??

http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/2012/story/_/id/8874764/2013-nfl-playoffs-colin-kaepernick-san-francisco-49ers-wants-trademark-kaepernicking

The San Francisco 49ers quarterback has filed for the trademark "Kaepernicking," his bicep-kissing act that has swept the West Coast during the team's postseason run.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office website shows the registration was filed on Jan. 14, and Kaepernick intends to use it on clothing, specifically T-shirts.

Kaepernick's marketing team already has authorized a few small T-shirt companies to use his name and image on their products.


He has a marketing team?? Wow!

That's how I saw him referred to recently.

I bet his pasted hair is falling out faster than mine.

Say, I looked up your handle once and can't remember it means.
