WWL-TV reports that the National Football League is acting to protect its trademarks, including the phrase "Who Dat."

Several shops and t-shirt manufacturers report getting cease and desist orders related to the production and sale of items with the iconic New Orleans Saints phrase.

The NFL sure knows how to take the fun out of the Saints first Superbowl appearance don't they? You would think they would want to promote the Superbowl not stop it from being promoted. It seems to me like the NFL is shooting itself in the foot on this one.

That's why the NFL stands for the No Fun League. :ohno:

I absolutely agree Marv, it is simply the NFL wanting to cash in and take the fun out for Saint fans.

Well, I can understand that I mean the Saints are apart of the NFL and it's got some copyright laws. Think you have to get the permission to do that and those manufactures didn't and even if they did, the NFL would say no.

I understand that they want to celebrate the team's first Super Bowl though.

I never got the meaning behind "Who Dat?". Noticed it a lot on the Saints FB page but I didn't realize it was one of their phrases. Still not sure what it means, but I guess it's like the #12/12th fan thing the Seahawks have going on. They were almost sued by Texas A&M over that one. Funny thing is that I noticed it was a Texas A&M thing before it was even mentioned in the paper!
