No More Walter Payton T-Shirts

Posted on October 3rd, 2008 in Website News by coachroth

With total disbelieve I receive a couple of hours ago a mail from spreadshirt: They pulled my Walter Payton design off my Football T-Shirt Shop because of copyright issues.

So I wrote them back that I truely created the design myself and thought that would clear the issue. But quite contraire: They wrote me back that

a) you cannot use a design (even a self created one) that’s showing another person without permission and

b) that the Walter Payton Foundation contacted them to pull the design.

(read the original quote on my myspace-blog)

First of all I think I at least they should have contacted me (maybe just a simple cc of the email to spreadshirt) and informed me that they’d object. And second I was going to give a substantial part of my revenue as a donation to that very Foundation.

Well it seems they don’t want any help…

Rams fire Coach Scott Linehan

Posted on September 30th, 2008 in NFL by coachroth

Four games into the season the St. Louis Rams fired HC Scott Linehan. The Rams are 0-4 with a league low 43 points scored and a league high 143 points allowed.

Interims Coach is now Defensive Coordinator Jim Haslett.

Linebackers Coach and Assistant HC, Rick Venturi, was promoted to DC.

Jim Haslett, as former HC of the New Orleans Saints, is not new to the HC duties in the NFL. The Rams hope that he will re-ignite the fire in the team.

And if he succeeds, who knows if he’s not the next permanent HC for the Rams…
