We’ve tried to figure out the best explanation for the Big Ten Baseball Tournament format but have not done well except for TV planning…is that the only defense for this format?

Next up on Jordon Hudson’s list for things associated with Bill Belichick? Trademarks on phrases! May 21, 2025

Show notes

Hudson, the 24-year-old girlfriend of Belichick, apparently is the CEO and founder of Trouble Club Enterprises, and filed 14 trademarks on April 3rd for phrases that apparently belong to the Patriots, but she’s found a loophole

"No Days Off,” “Do Your Job,” and “Ignore the Noise” are among the phrases she has filed for trademark, with (Bill’s Version) labeled at the end---as Taylor Swift does---so they can make money, as the original phrases aren’t available.
