Michael Jordan wins $8.9 million lawsuit

[Liquid]

When his advertising fee is $10 million, yes. Unlike most shyt people go to court for, this isn't a victimless crime. The damages that Jordan sustained to his brand is definitely subjective, but when he charges $10 million to use his likeness and someone goes around the proper channels and uses his likeness anyway, I think he should at least get his $10 million that would have been charged.

In this case, the grocery store was definitely trying to bank off of his name (hence the coupon). Just because they didn't get much business from the advertising doesn't mean they should have to pay less, especially when they didn't get permission anyway. Imagine if they had sold somebody some bad meat in this promotion. The real sue-happy people you alluded to earlier would have a field day trying to tie MJ into that shyt.

Ad doesn't say sponsored by Jordan

Yeah it was a little slimy, but I still don't think it justifies a 9M fine IMO. The bad meat is the worst case scenario argument I brought forward earlier.

Either way at this point we will just go in circles, Jordan the thug wins again.

Rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poor

I want you to say this about the white billionaires who run this country and get all the tax breaks, not the black businessman making moves.

Three weeks ago, Jordan lost a legal battle to stop a company in China called Qiaodan Sports, even though the name means "Jordan," it has a similar silhouette to the Jumpman logo and it uses the number 23.

Nobody wants it with my Chinese brehs in the replica game.

That color theory on dem joints tho

Spoiler

how much is shippin

 

[fifth column]

I would agree if the thing said sponsored by Jordan, it didn't say that. It was congratulating him on his accomplishments.

Either way, whatever

You seem to be all bent out of shape with the outcome of this

 

[Art Barr]

I legit feel bad for the store. Sure part of them saw it as a marketing opportunity for their store, but the dudes were congratulating him and now owe him $9 mil

fukk Dominick's,...
You can't be from Chicago to ever put dominick's in any type of like.
Especially, when Michael fukkin Jordan is involved.
Dominick's is a piece of shyt company and that is why they don't exist anymore.

MJ said....~it's the principle of the matter...~
*Pay Da Man His Money...*

 

[Art Barr]

how did they not know something like this would happen though?

Dominick's and jewel are two of the biggest piece of shyt large food chains in Chicago history.
Holsum bread is out of business right now.
All because these two fukkin a$$hole ass companies were stealing spreadsheets of pennies worth more than three million a piece from holsum.
I know, I did the audit at holsum for both to try to settle for two mill.

fukk jewel's and dominicks's...

Jordan is fukking ruthless, he doesn't even need the money but he wasted his time going to court just to fukk over some poor store owner over 2 coupons.

That struggle smiley....good lordIs that supposed to be Jordan or a slave from 1603?

Sources:

Jordan's legal team is heavily considering going after The Coli now that he has successfully won the case against the grocery store.

An irrate Jordan was overheard saying, "im going after the head Coli nikka, Im going after every Coli nikka who has used the Jordan smiley, and I'm going after every Coli nikka lurkers who sat by and let these coli nikkas use my Smiley without telling me."

Stay tuned for more details.

UPDATE:

Jordan is now saying that all proceeds will be donated to Redditt.
