Tank McNamara by Bill Hinds for August 03, 2013

…and yet Mr. Hinds has drawn a good enough likeness of an NCAA Executive to exonerate himself?

Fair use doctrine. Hinds would not do a strip about some anonymous midge – he ridicules only the notorious.

I wonder if someone actually tried to do this once and inspired this strip. A lawyer once told me someone “could challenge anything” on the slim chance they would win a baseless case. Not fun!

Images used in satire or for educational purposes are free. Otherwise we’d never be able to afford ‘Mad’ magazine!

Frivolous judges render frivolous decisions.

One of the few times I remember Tank breaking the fourth wall. This one cracked me up!

Another reason we need “loser pays”.

This isn’t a criminal trial, it’s a lawsuit; so there’s no he to prove did something. It’s all very preliminary at this point; the list of plaintiffs hasn’t even been finalized.Last month, two redshirt-senior (last year of competition) football players at the University of Minnesota joined the lawsuit. Then this week, the one, that has, so far, seldom played in games, left the lawsuit.The other one is a 3-star HS quarterback recruit, who has tried to switch to tight end in college. After 4 years, he has yet to play in a game, and this year, didn’t even make the 105-man pre-season practice roster (article’s last sentence). I predict he too will leave the lawsuit (because no one has used his likeness — no damages); keeping him will just make the lawyer look greedy.

As Shakespeare said, First, we kill all the lawyers. Unfortunately, he should have added, Including corporate lawyers!
