TruColor Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 Well, I got me a genuine certified letter from Major League Baseball today. This was a letter in response to my request for a password to the restricted areas of their site. They were very nice and even fairly supportive of the SSUR and what we are trying to do, but due to the ever-increasing paranoia associated with counterfeit merchandise, they had to "with some regret" turn me down for a password.Well, at least they were nice about it. I mean they even sent the letter on official MLB stationary, and sent it certified mail.The overall tone of the letter was VERY nice, and I may attempt to at least establish some sort of rapport with them about the group.Oh well.

CC97 Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 That is excellent news (I think) they're aware of our existence, and seem to support the thought of it!Too bad about being denied, but really, it's understandable. --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cianfrocco Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 I guess that's the best news we could have hoped for. I would have been shocked if they gave away a free password. Anyone know how much one would cost? At least they didn't order the SSUR to shut down or anything. I wouldn't have put it past them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyWrench32 Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 That is very good news. Maybe after we really get things rolling they'll change their minds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't have put it past them.That's the NHL that's been shutting people down, and it's got me worred a little. With what some companies have been abusing the DMCA for, I'm surprised that Chris's site and theSLE.com and any fan sites are still around.

TruColor Posted November 29, 2002 Author Share Posted November 29, 2002 Here's what the letter looks like:MLB Letter PicI think the text of this letter might also explain why the public style guide is down. They are protecting the premature unveilings of new logos and uniform changes.Even though we all already let the cat out of the bag... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted November 29, 2002 Share Posted November 29, 2002 Wow. Even though they denied us access they are definatley supportive. I could easily see them giving us access down the road when we have established a little more.

Puckguy14 Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 Yeah, that's a great letter. By the way, anyone have access to NHLMedia.com ? My password and screen name don't work and phone calls and letters continue to go uncalled for. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
