re: On this day in history Pete Maravich scored 69 points

Like someone said once, all you have to do to beat Pete Maravich's scoring record is make an average of FIFTEEN three pointers per game during your entire college career...
I heard a story from a guy from my area (Wallace Tinker) who played at Auburn and had to guard Pistol Pete one night. He said: “It was right before half-time and we were lined up on the free throw line, I looked over at him and said ‘Pete, you’re gonna have to slow down; you’re running me to death!’ And I looked down at my Converse tennis shoes and back then they had air-holes in the sides and there was water running out of my shoes I had sweated so much! He looked at me and said ‘Hey Wally, we’re just gettin’ started.’"

I like Daniel Moore and own a couple of his prints, but I'm not sure I buy his argument in this case. I've heard him say that his artwork "depicts a historical event" like a journalist. Of course he is making millions off this and the University is just trying to protect the rights to their IP. Moore claims that he should be allowed to use the team's colors and logo if they are "inside the image area" of his paintings. I wonder what he would say if I were an artist and painted a depiction of this "historical event"?
Sure, I could claim I was just trying to sell this print like a journalist wanting to document a famous event in history (i.e. the painting of the famous "Goal Line Stand" painting by Daniel Moore). But, when I started making some big bucks off Daniel Moore's intellectual property then I bet he would hit me with a lawsuit so fast it would make your head spin...
