    Unbelievable. That league needs all the free marketing it can get. As if Chump's pics were somehow compromising their licensing and......ah to with it.

    Was about to type this very thing, took the words right out of my mouth.

    If I'm someone with interest (mulah) in this league, I'm begging people to do whatever to get people interested!!!

    Chump, it's a FREE COUNTRY... Tell them to go jump in a ing lake. Your not affecting any revenue stream of theirs, as they aren't selling pictures themselves. You're not selling the pictures either. At that point they have copyright argument... Owning and using a camera is not against the law. Anything you see (legally) you are allowed to take a picture of unless there is a copyright argument against, similar to any conversation you take part in, you are allowed to record (without I might add, telling any other party about it).
    Technically, the Toros were probably within their rights. But whatever reasoning they have to specifically target CD is absurd. There's no way that CD pictures, reports, analysis, updates, etc. have done anything else but help out the Toros.

    I disagree, I was going to buy a lifesize action photo print from TorosStore.com but since Chump posted his shots for free I just took a few of those and printed them at Wal-Mart. Score!

    Right they are...they can have him thrown out and banned from the building and all future Toros events if he doesn't honor that request.

    And they are hardasses about it in Austin...


    But just to prove how ridiculous this is...there is no greedier territorial en y in the State of Texas than the UT Athletic Department, and even they let you take closeup pictures with a regular digital camera(no extreme telephoto though).

    Hopefully it was just some clueless employee who didn't realize he was talking to ChumpDumper and there's some sort of Toros apology.

    We'll see.

    Thanks for the appreciation and the funny posts. It was just a little weird after three and a half seasons of picture-taking impunity. They certainly are within their rights, so I can't really complain.

    If I'm the D league and I see a guy putting pictures of my games on the web, I ask if there's any way I can improve the lighting.

    -100 + =

    Unbelievable and not a very smart thing to do to their customer base. Well if they wanted some publicity then I think they will get some out of this. I hope this comes to light in the papers in Austin as well as the Spurs FO.

    Hang in there CD. I don't think this one is over just yet.

    Dude you want me to let you use one of my 3 other screen names to post the pics? Good luck them trying to take me to court.

    Oh, I don't think it's that big a deal -- I just wanted to let folks know there won't be any more pictures. If it's something I have to do to keep attending games, that's fine.

    Just as long as they don't start charging admission.
