Coincidentally I checked the Twitter moments ago and learned it was suspended several hours ago. No email or information stating as to why.

I read through the rules and I think the closest thing is trademark infringement. I think "Packers" in PackersHome was the dagger. I've inquired with the Twitter staff.

Edit, Twitter account was restored.

This was the Packers response ...

We have trademarked the word “Packers”, so using Packers in their title is potential trademark infringement issue. I took a quick look at the website and it appears to be informative and newsworthy. It does not appear to contain any commercial aspect (side ads or links to other commercial venture where the owner of the site would receive a payment). Unless it can be shown that there is some commercial venture, we would not take any action against the owner.

That is excellent news..

So basically though it just shows the NFL's greed. If you are making a buck off their name.. they want a cut. If not.. we care less. [grin1]

Yes, this is almost the same response the NFL gave me when they ripped my YouTube highlights down and when I asked if I could host them at PackersHome.com instead. They basically said if I receive no payment, they wouldn't come after me. Pretty much what the Packers said.

I have the designs done for shirts, hoodies, polo and coffee mug on various sites, but haven't pulled the trigger.

I find it interesting that you had it set up for a banner ad for those who are not registered. Is Jerry Hanson a registered user or did you pull down the ads?

I'm hoping to not have to change the sites name, but have asked a few questions and a few other names to get an idea of the latitude that can be had. I'd like to have a "brand" of sorts for the site. I don't think that'll be possible with PackersHome, unfortunately.

I didn't get a response, nor have I called. I think I'm going to say screw it, keep PackersHome.com and proceed with my plans while thinking of a new name silently just in case.

I would have called this week, but have been insanely ill and only time I've stopped blowing my nose or wiping my eyes is to cough.

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (54m) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (1h) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (1h) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (2h) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (3h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (3h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (3h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (5h) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (6h) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (6h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (6h) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (6h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (6h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (6h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (8h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (10h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (10h) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (10h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (10h) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it

Mucky Tundra (17h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons

Mucky Tundra (17h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious

dfosterf (22h) : *Orzech*

dfosterf (22h) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension

Zero2Cool (23h) : Packers signed someone for three year deal

Zero2Cool (23h) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know

wpr (23h) : YES!!!!!!

Mucky Tundra (26-Aug) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha

wpr (26-Aug) : He played pretty good.

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NAZIR STACKHOUSE HAS MADE THE 53

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks

schroeder84 (26-Aug) : @dfosterf I suspect Elgersma WILL be hard to hide. Raw, but talented

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : pp.com is broken, halt testing, gotta go do work things for a bit

hardrocker950 (26-Aug) : Mecole Hardman was released, to the surprise of few

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : PP.com updated. Reset Password works, and now User Profile pages are a thing

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : Soft hope plan is having fantasy football weekly on-site that i build. cannot do that with this setup.

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It's older technology, resource hog, cannot be upgraded/changed. That's to start.

packerfanoutwest (25-Aug) : Ok, but what is wrong with this site?

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : check out packerpeople.com

Mucky Tundra (25-Aug) : Oh crap I missed that! I thought it was a 2026 pick
