I think it is a slam dunk as to which has the hottest cheerleaders vs the gayest ones.
Are you saying these fine females are all lesbians?

But why even let the TAMU trademarks be licensed at all?
So you can charge people when they try and market your shite... This is America, Bruh. It's not that big of a deal and although it may not seem like a lot of money, it's an added income for literally nothing. Capitalism, mayne. I'd be down for doing the same thing.

One of the reasons we licensed it to Seattle ... it set a precedent that we can use to enforce the trademark against anyone else in the future. The fact that somebody pays us a licensing fee is, in and of itself, evidence of a valid and enforceable trademark.
Bottom line: We didn't want to litigate it ... this time.
We originated the phrase. We own it. They stole it. They admitted it. They pay. All is good.

Not sure if any of these ladies are lesbians or not, but they are not cheerleaders. They are members of the dance squad, much like LSU's who perform at halftime. Another aggie tradition: male cheerleaders.

Actually--unlike most schools who DO have male cheerleaders--we don't have any cheerleaders.
I can't imagine anyone sitting at his computer/phone/iPad, thinking it would be damn clever to post a "Dude! A&M has male cheerleaders!"

Texas A&M also is the home of the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Corps of Cadets, which commissions more military officers than any Reserve Officers’ Training Corps unit in the nation. During World War II, Texas A&M even outpaced the military academies by commissioning 14,123 officers. Of the numerous Aggies who have served in the military, seven have earned the nation’s highest award, the Medal of Honor, and 225 have become flag or general officers. Today, there are more than 1,900 cadets and midshipmen in the Aggie Corps.

No.. A&M did not originate it.. University of Iowa has reference to the 12th man for a term of their student body in print almost a decade earlier. European soccer has been using that term for longer than that. A&M copyrighted it in the US, nothing more...
I would actually be more concerned that at some point A&M will be challenged over this and lose. That is why the fee is so low. It is not worth the hassle for Seattle to take A&M to court, even if the likelihood of winning is 90%+, if the cost so little. A trail would cost a ton and there is always the chance of losing. If A&M threatens to up the fee Seattle will take them to court and A&M stands a legitimate chance of losing.
