  • 2016 Performance-Based Pay Distributions Announced
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 3/16/2017 http://www.twitter.com/NFL345 2016 PERFORMANCE-BASED PAY DISTRIBUTIONS ANNOUNCED NFL Players will receive $127.84 million in “Performance-Based Pay” for their performance during the 2016 season, the NFL announced today. The Performance-Based Pay program is a collectively- bargained benefit that compensates players based upon their playing time and salary levels. In addition to the Performance-Based Pay pool, the NFL Players Association has elected to dedicate $32 million in benefits (i.e., $1 million per club) to fund a Veteran Performance-Based Compensation Pool (the “Veteran Pool”) for players with more than one Accrued Season. In total, $159.84 million will be disbursed to players under the combined pools. Atlanta Falcons cornerback BRIAN POOLE earned the highest amount in the Performance-Based Pay program. Oakland Raiders guard GABE JACKSON earned the most in the Veteran Pool. Under the combined pools, Atlanta safety RICARDO ALLEN earned the highest amount of all NFL players. See the tables below for the top 25 bonuses in each category. Players have been paid over $1.2 billion cumulatively since the inception of the Performance-Based Pay program, which was implemented as part of the NFL’s 2002 Collective Bargaining Agreement with the NFL Players Association, and continues as part of the parties’ current agreement. The Veteran Pool is a component of the Rookie Redistribution Fund, which is a player benefit that was created under the 2011 Collective Bargaining Agreement. The NFL Players Association elected to fund the Veteran Pool for the first time this past year.

A moment of transitionBy WDX2BBWhen an author of a book on a sports season picks a year, he's subject to the whims of fate. Sometimes he or she gets lucky, sometimes he doesn't.Phil Hanrahan, the author of "Life After Favre," was rather unlucky.He started off nicely off. He decided to move to Green Bay for a few months in 2008 and write a book about the Packers. When he came up with the idea, Brett Favre was apparently headed toward retirement with Aaron Rodgers taking over the quarterback position of a team that was one pass away from a Super Bowl the previous year.But then Favre decided he wasn't done after all, starting a drama that Shakespeare would have stolen for his next play had he been around to see it.

  • Trademark Rights for Signature Touchdown Dances
    Trademark Rights for Signature Touchdown Dances Abstract Famous athletes are increasingly cultivating signature dances and celebratory moves, such as touchdown dances, as valuable and commercially viable elements of their personal brands. As these personal branding devices have become immediately recognizable and have begun being commercially exploited, athletes need to legally protect their signature dances. This paper argues that trademark law should protect the signature dances and moves of famous athletes, particularly the signature touchdown dances of NFL players. Because touchdown dances are devices capable of distinguishing one player from another, are non- functional, and are commercially used in NFL games, the dances should be registrable with the USPTO as trademarks for football services.
