I thought the NFL's lawyers would have been too busy issuing cease-and-desist orders to keep New Orleans businesses from using the phrase "Who Dat?" in their advertising.

The NFL believes the phrase belongs to them by copyright law, so that presumably, some enterprising t-shirt maker would be prohibited from making and selling a shirt that said: "Who Dat Gonna Get the Felons Outta the NFL?" Which is too bad because I'd like to own one. I'd even wear it in a public movie theater screening the Super Bowl.

Which is a blatant rip-off of Cinci's "Who Dey?" chant started in the 80's.

Both chants suck, imo. I want to root for NO on Sunday, but I find it hard when their fans sound like a bunch of annoying Bengals fans.
