As I write this, the Seattle Mariners are 1-0 in the 2008 season. At this rate, they’ll not only make the playoffs for the first time in seven years — they’ll win the World Series with an undefeated record. Ah, the optimism a new season brings. In recognition of this special time, I thought it would be fun to look at my ball team’s registered trademarks over the years. Turns out they have had 18 total applications and registrations, with eight currently listed as “live.” Only three real logos of note, which roughly divide my years as a kid, teenager, and lawyer. Let’s hope the current one brings them luck this year.
