@SavannahSaint @joshtarge @darrenrovell For what it is worth... the USPTO is a self-funded agency... so it relies on the filing fees of applications to fund the agency, not taxpayer dollars. In this case Lebron paid $1100 in government filing fees to make the filing.

The USFL has filed new trademark applications (22 in total) for: 1. NATIONAL SPRING FOOTBALL LEAGUE 2. NSFL This could potentially be the name of the merged USFL and XFL. If so, I think it's likely that the NFL will object to both trademarks. #usfl #xfl #NFL
