Alabama Crimson Tide is suing Harvard Crimson

Should be laughed out of court

Yes, but what matters is, what does the "A" stand for?
I can make a few suggestions for them.

Here is a comparison of some logos with the letter A...
I was curious, so I compared Alabama Crimson Tide, 4 Aces LIV, Oakland Athletics, and Atlanta Braves. I don't thing there is going to be consumer confusionb between Alabama as the Crimson Tide is a different color and the styling is different at legible distances.

The 4Aces isn’t even close. Alabama can pound sand

No sane person would confuse the A on his uniform with the Alabama A.

About 15 to 20 years ago the Florida Gators...
made all the high schools stop using the Florida "F" and the gators logo. There were a lot of high schools who had to retool their logos.

Remember Nebraska v. NBC?

ChrisLords
No. And I didn't see any thing in Yahoo.com either. What happened? Did
Nebraska sue NBC over the N they used? Edit : Never mind, I found it. 1976. Almost before I was born. No wonder I didn't remember it. ** Edited by ChrisLords at 7/15/2024, 2:07:27 AM

I always wondered about Grambling, Georgia, and the Packers
All with the same identical G logo. I'm sure they would go after the Graham Gmen too. ** Edited by HokiesACC2004 at 7/12/2024, 11:42:24 PM

If the design of the 4Aces "A" was more similiar to the design Alabama uses
for its logo, then I could where they would have a case. However, I think there's enough difference where DJ should win particularly since the "4" is woven within the "A" which I think is pretty clever marketing strategy.

After the 4 Aces, the 5 Aces are the next logical target.
Too bad - I enjoy doo wop.

wait until they find out about the Braves

Ironically, I just saw an Alabama car sticker yesterday and thought...
..."I'm surprised there's never been a legal battle between the Tide and the Braves."
