NFL Logo On Porn, Hoochie Mama Lockout Party Flyers [Investigation]

By Joe Kinsey June 15, 2011 Posted in Football Joe Kinsey g+ page

So the NFL is plenty mad over a Chicago TV station’s investigation into the use of players wearing league uniforms while advertising Exxxotica Expo 2011, which as you can guess involved porn stars. This is the same league that won’t let bars advertise “Watch the Super Bowl here!” This is the same league that will destroy companies over copyright issues. Well, look what we found. How about the NFL logo itself splattered on a “Lockout Party” ad from this past weekend. And there’s more!

Being the Twitpic Investigators® that we are, BC has watched many similar ads featuring NFL players and hoochie mamas on flyers being passed around Twitter. Some of the posters are innocent. Some are covered with black ‘model’ chicks.

Take this Lockout Party flyer.

Your move, NFL. We just do the investigating.

“The NFL office works on behalf of the clubs to protect their intellectual property rights in matters such as this” said NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy after receiving a copy of an ad first disclosed by the ABC7 I-Team. The ad for last month’s Exxxotica Expo 2011 in Miami showed photos of five NFL players in their team uniforms. Among them was Bears safety Major Wright, a Miami native.

“Our legal team is reviewing the ad. In general, companies not affiliated with the NFL or its clubs may not depict a player in his uniform” said McCarthy.

In other words, the fun we used to have looking at party flyers and Googling the hoochies might be coming to an end. Sad day indeed.
