Tebow trademarks kneeling on one knee and fake praying
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/jets-te...7810--nfl.html
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -- Dropping to a knee like Tim Tebow might cost you now. The New York Jets backup quarterback is trademarking ''Tebowing,'' the move in which he goes down on one knee and holds a clenched fist against his forehead while praying during games. After Tebow led the Denver Broncos to a handful of fourth-quarter comeback victories last season, ''Tebowing'' swept the country - with actor Robert Downey Jr. even doing it at the Oscars. Newsday first reported that the trademark was approved Oct. 9. Tebow says Friday he wasn't aware the trademark was official yet. The devout Christian says his representatives filed on his behalf not for financial gain, but ''to just control how it's used, make sure it's used in the right way.'' |

You guys just want to hate so much you can't even accept logic and fact. It's a little pathetic. What's even more pathetic is that we're wasting our time bickering about it. I've got apps to build and trademarks/patents to file. Last edited by DRU; 10-20-2012 at 06:31 PM.. |

No hate here buddy, just looking at it as logically as possible. Again so maybe you will understand logic. Making money is making money. Posted via Mobile Device |

Tebow. Hypocrite.

And keep others from doing it in a manner he deems unseemly. Even though he didn't invent it and is a borderline NFL player who will be forgotten like a fart upon the summer breeze in a few years.

And the Lord spake, saying Thou Shalt Not Tebow, lest ye be deemed unworthy of Tebowing in the eyes of His Most Holy Tebow, and be slain by the Divine Suit filed by His Most Holy Attorneys.

football players have been doing nearly exactly the same thing for decades
it's only the 'thinking man' arm aspect that is slightly different

He cannot keep you from your prayers, and he cannot force you to pay him something if you happen to kneel the same way he does. |

I deal with this stuff all the time, and I've spent thousands of dollars for attorney's to fight IP battles for me. I've learned a lot in the process. This is a pretty straight forward case. If you're so bothered by it, you could always file a dispute with the Trademark and Patent office. It was officially granted on 10/9 and the public has 30 days from that time to dispute the validity of the trademark. So, seriously. If you disagree, file a dispute and see if you can block him from completing his trademark application for good. |
