TL;DR, or for those without a subscription to the RAG: Drake is suing DMACC over its new "D" logo

It's a paywall site, but here's what they're talking about.

Or here is a link to the lawsuit, which also claims that Admire is the "Face of Drake athletics"...

Unreal. I can't believe that is even mentioned in the lawsuit.

Besides...THIS is the face of D athletics

The DMAC attorneys might point out that many of those examples of "D" usage have been abandoned by Drake.  Example:  the so-called marching Spike in your avatar.  After Drake dumped that image, it was picked up by a club sport at Yale.  Lost Dog, indeed.
