        When you copy something, there are then two of the same thing. Ex. Blackhawks goal song = Chelsea Dagger = UND goal song

        When you use an element of something, or in your words "borrow from", it may be inspired by or similar in a way, but it is not a copy. Ex. Minnesota Rouser ≠ SCSU's new lame goal song
        We "borrowed" the crest on the Blackhawks sweaters....not the whole sweater. So Dirty is correct.

          Western fans may not even know who SCSU or UMD are. I've visited relatives in Michigan many times and they have never heard of UMD.

              right.... because Minnesota (and by Minnesota I mean the Gophers) is the only sports team in the nation that spells their team name out... Why don't we just say SCSU is trying to copy the Vikings? Jets? Bulldogs? You're REALLY fishing there

                  The crest as well as the logo. The logo being the thing that people associate with a team more than anything else.

                  http://www.nhluniforms.com/Blackhawks/Blackhawks23.html

                  So I guess people can decide which is worse, copying a jersey style or copying the actual symbols that represent a team.

Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

                          What many of the younger gopher fans do not know is that it took 5 or 6 years for fans at old Mariucci to get the whole state spelling thing down. When I was an undergrad, they could generally get through the "s" before the confusion took over.

                            Based on this weekends games.... UNO will finish 7th and WMU will finish 8th. WMU looks like a team that will really struggle to score.

                              Ohhh, so it's like "sampling" in the rap music genre. They just borrow an "element" of the original song for their new rap song.

                              So where's our royalties for borrowing the spelling element?

                                You get nothing without proving MN owns the copywright on spelling.
