Raiders want changes in uniforms of Bucs, Panthers

I was tempted to post this in "Entertainment" for the comedic aspects of the story.

The Oakland Raiders have asked a judge to prevent the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Carolina Panthers from wearing their uniforms for games in California because they violate the Raiders' trademark rights.

Papers filed by the Raiders in the San Jose case say the Buccaneers' "is likely to dilute the distinctive quality of the Raiders' mark, thereby lessening its capacity to identify the Raiders and causing irreparable harm that cannot adequately be compensated by an award of damages."
