Riley files for 3-Peat trademark

[IrisHockey]

According to ESPN.com's Darren Rovell (http://espn.go.com/nba/truehoop/miamiheat/story/_/id/10965180/pat-riley-miami-heat-riley-files-3-peat-trademark-jewelry-rings-sports-memorabilia), the engineer behind the Heat's Big Three has already applied for a rather telling trademark:

Records with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office reveal that, last Thursday, an attorney representing Riley's company, Riles & Co., filed a trademark to use the phrase "3-Peat" on "jewelry, namely rings and sports memorabilia."
Riley wouldn't have to file for a trademark if he had planned on putting "3-Peat" on the Heat's championship rings, should they win the title, but would want to protect his investment if there were discussions about selling rings at retail.


:lol the man himself ain't got a worry.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol would be interesting if the heat doesnt win....he could keep his trademark 3-peat, like those micheal finley posters in a heat jersey marketing campaign when he tried to sign finley after being brought out by the mavs

[Venti Quattro]

Fucking boss

[100%duncan]

I wonder if Holt would be willing to reimburse Riley's loss with this tbh?

[MI21]

Should of trademarked 3-Heat, tbh

[IrisHockey]

:lol Wade will trademark Four.

[jimbo]

He's had the trademark for a while for clothing. Made it after his Lakers repeated, lol. Guess that doesn't bode well for the Heat.

I guess he's trying to get this one for when they get the Jostens replica rings to sell to the public. I've got no idea how he even keeps the trademark active man, threepeats or repeats aren't that common...

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Shit like this makes me nervous. It's like when Nike were already promoting "back to back champion" on those LeBron shoes prior to game 6.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Pete Carroll tried the same thing when it came to the USC attempt at a 3-Pete... And we all know how that went

[DMC]

Pop tried to patent "6" and got rejected.

This is one of the ideas you wake up with and when you go through with them and they fall flat you're like why?

Spurs will decimate the Heat if they advance to the Finals.

It was "2-Time Champion" , but same difference.
