Judge To Rose Bowl, Pasadena: Why Are You Fighting? By Lauren Berg Law360 (May 14, 2021, 7:51 PM EDT) -- A California federal judge asked Pasadena and the organization behind the Rose Bowl Game during a hearing Friday why they are in court fighting over who has control of the famous annual college football game, asking if the century-old partners could resolve the issue on their own. During a remote hearing over the city's motions to toss the suit, U.S. District Judge André Birotte Jr. asked the Pasadena Tournament of Roses Association to explain what relief it hopes to win from the court, pointing out that the parties don't dispute that the organization owns the trademark associated with the Rose Bowl Game. A. John P. Mancini of Mayer Brown LLP, an attorney representing the organization, told the judge there is a dispute over whether Pasadena has the right to block the organization from moving the football game to another location during a force majeure event, like the coronavirus pandemic. The organization contends it had a right to move last year's game to Texas because of social distancing constraints in California. In response to Judge Birotte's query as to why the organization is making trademark claims now, Mancini said Pasadena improperly used the Rose Bowl mark in an Instagram post and that the city's mayor claimed in an interview with The New York Times in January that the city "shares a trademark on the name of the game" and that the game "belongs" to the city.

    Allstate Sugar Bowl Monday, December 28, 2020 CFP Playoff Semifinal Ohio State Quarterback Justin Fields On past scoring struggles against Clemson’s defense: “It just comes down to executing. From the [offensive] line, to the receivers, to me, and to the running back. If everybody executes on our side of the ball, then we’ll be fine and put the ball in the endzone.” On his personal play: “To be honest, I feel like everything happens for a reason. But, what happened in those [Northwestern and Indiana] games and me not playing as well as I wanted to, maybe God was sending me a message that I need to do more and work harder. So, that is kind of how I am looking at it. I am looking at it as a challenge. For this game [Sugar Bowl], I have been preparing my butt off. I have not prepared like this the whole season so maybe I played the way I did because God was just trying to tell me, for this game, that I need to lock in and prepare for this game. I am not necessarily mad [about past struggles] but I was mad after the [Northwestern and/or Indiana game]. But, now I am just motivated.” On playing to the highest level coming into the Sugar Bowl: “I think it is very important, of course. It is the [College Football] Playoff. Every team in the country wants to be in the spot that we [Ohio State] are in right now. We have to take advantage of this opportunity that we have now and make the most out of it.
