Ohio State Finally Trademarks 'The'

FFS, it only applies to very narrow circumstances and items. Sports clothing that have "THE" clearly set apart to accentuate it. A shirt that says "The Fighting Tigers" is OK.
A shirt that says "The...." on the front and "...LSU Tigers" on the back is not so much.

Can you clutch your pearls a little harder? The word "baggy" is trademarked and nobody claimed it was the sign of the apocalypse when it happened. And I hate to have to explain it to you but you don't get sued for saying a trademarked word any more than you would get sued for saying "I like my iphone".
