number of letters received, Louisiana, T-shirt from the Manufacturers Alliance. Letter of protest asking them to stop selling the shirt

features the phrase a popular saints fans cheer, saying that due to trademark infringement.

"They have admitted that they have said that they did not claim that Iris iris, it would be ridiculous, or 'who-il,' it would be equally

absurd intention," Caldwell said in an interview.

NFL is only against those who sell or as a full-day Saints or the NFL Product shirts, Caldwell said. Shirt is black and gold, saying "Who

Yi", can be sold, he said, if they do not claim nfl shop to be saints and equipment, not including the team logo.

The slogan - "Who dey gonna beat Mark Yi said the Saints" - who is often shortened Plaza "in the T-shirts and signs," and has been Superdome

in New Orleans since the 80's a mainstay.

"People who can use the Plaza they just think, if you do not include the trademark NFL and the Saints, said:" In an e-mail in the NFL's

official spokesman Brian McCarthy. "We explained that we will contact businesses, only one person Yat project also included trademarks or NFL

or the Saints, if falsely, without the authorization of projects is a member of the Saints or the NFL."

"Who Yi" argument has been for many Louisiana residents and businesses, who advocated the NFL can not ask to have a statement or symbol, as

early as in the saints, who do the Indianapolis Colts their first time in Super Bowl Sunday. Governor Bobby Jindal requested the proceedings

Caldwell possible, if the attempt to declare a phrase in the NFL title.

letter from the NFL and asked her to stop selling them. She sold her stock, and now back order management.

"Yes, it undermines the business, but it has been a great as well. We have to wait for people to buy our product line," said Tom. "One woman

told me that she want to buy store, this is not the NFL of any mandate. I told her: 'This is what nfl draft everything in the store!"

"What started as a scared the bejesus out of me, has been proved to be the best thing for their own companies are the letter," she said.
