Peppermint Patty Posted April 4, 2014 Report Posted April 4, 2014 http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft2014/story/_/id/10722746/johnny-manziel-file-new-trademark I guess the ags will need to pay JM or Uncle Nate a royalty once the "new" Kyle Field is opened. Quote
Eagle11 Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 I am no Manziel fan but I think that is a disrespect to every aggie that has ever played ball on Kyle field. I know of several quarterbacks that actually won a conference title while being the QB there. Quote
OldTimer Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 I am an A&M fan and I have to agree that I wonder about the motivation for this trademark. JFF was a great player for A&M for 2 years - Kyle Field has been a monument at Texas A&M for a lot longer than JFF has been alive. JFF did not make Kyle Field it is more likely that Kyle Field (or those crazy fans inside of it) made JFF. I hope that the A&M athletic program bans the use of the trademarked name forever from being mentioned on the A&M campus - at least by the University officials. Quote
LocknLoad Posted April 11, 2014 Report Posted April 11, 2014 I am an Aggie & also a fan of JFF with that said I look at it in another way per say. If JFF doesn't trademark it then every store in College Station & elsewhere will have T-Shirts with the "House Johnny Built" which in all actuality will be profiting off of Johnny Manziel himself just like the #2 jersey sure other Ags have wore that number but everbody was purchasing them because of Johnny!!! He didn't build Kyle Field I do agree with that but he sure in the heck didn't hurt it either!!! Gig'em Quote
OldTimer Posted April 11, 2014 Report Posted April 11, 2014 You might be right as I took this as a reference to the Kyle Field alone and might not have taken in the Big picture- who knows. Quote

PhatMack19 Posted May 13, 2014 Report Posted May 13, 2014 The field is already named after the new QB in town. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote
Peppermint Patty Posted May 13, 2014 Author Report Posted May 13, 2014 The field is already named after the new QB in town. I'm sure the family of Mr. Kyle likes that. Quote
BlackShirts5 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Posted May 15, 2014 Just terrible. Johhny didnt build it or plant the grass they played on. Quote
