So the WWF is suing the WWE over damage which they say is irreversible. Come on! What next? Will they have to change their name to Vince McMahon's Sports Entertainment Hour?
This has reached an asinine level. The whole basis of the Panda World lawsuit is that, because of WWE's years of using the WWF name, the World Wildlife Fund's name has been tarnished.
Um...WTF?!
You're telling me that just because Vince McMahon used the letters "WWF", people have refused to save the pandas? You're telling me that some hick looked at the World Wildlife Fund and said "Well, gee, they have the same name as that there 'rasslin company. I'll show them! I'm gonna shoot me a panda!" Give me a fuckin break!
I think the McMahon view on this hits the nail right on the head. Why would a CHARITABLE organization make such a big deal out of this?!
"See Nash, you can wear any Halloween costume you want to, but you know and I know that you're only half the man that I am - and I have half the brain that you do."
I would LOVE if the judge reversed the other judge decision and allowed Vince to use WWF again. A judgement of "You panda people just don't know when to quit when you're ahead". I know it's pure make believe world but it would rule nonetheless and really put them in their place.
The question is would be then would Vince want the F back. I'd say yeah.
Stuff like this makes me want to go out and club a seal.

Vince did in fact say that on the Bob Costas show a while back that they were trying to get the F back. And if the World Wildlife Fund is sueing for irreversible damages, then what's the harm in giving them the F back? Hell, by their logic, THEY should be the ones changing their name!
I suppose the World Wildlife Fund has to spend their time going after the WWE, now that they've solved that whole endangered species problem they used to spend their time on. What was that? Oh, never mind.

I'll agree here. If they have nothing more important to spend their time/money on than going after a wrestling company, hasn't their usefulness as an environmental protection group reached its end?
Does anyone have any sort of link to an actual story on this?
The WWF is out of control. Someone brought up the fact that they should be saving animals instead of spending their money on this crap. Somebody should write them a letter (hopefully one of their donors) and let them know about this.

I just read the article, from the link on 411.
I now actually wish that I had donated money to this group...for one reason and one reason only.
If they can sue WWE, AGAIN, for damages due to WWE using WWF illegaly, can not the donors institute a class action suit against the World Wildlife Federation to regain their donations.
It would seem to me that their donations were taken with the pretense of being used for the preservation of wildlife, world wide. A noble enough goal. However, their donations are now being used to fight a wrestling company over the intials WWF. In a case that they already won once!
I'm guessing this time they are actually looking for a big monetary award. So in a weird way, I guess it's an investment. There are some charitable organizations that are a whole more about financial gain for themselves than the so-called charitable cause that is supposedly its purpose.

Wrestling has been rhyming with ass. I miss shows and it makes me all shades of ambivalence. WWE is starting to suck again. The crops? Jeezum Spice! Someone stole my crops. What in the ham fat is going on. That's just poo-doo! That's just my 2.4856 Yen.
Would it be impossible for the venue crew to completely close up for an hour to give it a quick cleaning? That way, there's nobody in the building at that time. Not sure if it's realistic for it to be so simple, but who knows...?
