Dale Earnhardt Jr. Responds To Lamar Jackson's Trademark Complaint Over Number 8 | Charlie Marlow Show · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:00
  All right, we are live. I am live again, Charlie Marlowe
• 0:04
  here on the Kenny Wallace YouTube channel.
• 0:07
  I'm not going to put this one on podcast because it's not going
• 0:10
  to be very long. It wasn't on my bingo card today
• 0:13
  that I would be doing 2 live streams talking about Dale
• 0:16
  Earnhardt Junior and Lamar Jackson, the quarterback of the
• 0:21
  Baltimore Ravens, kind of having this, this little dispute over
• 0:25
  the number 8 and some trademark issues and all that.
• 0:29
  So if you're here on YouTube, you go back.
• 0:31
  I did about a 19 minute live stream.
• 0:33
  It ended, I don't know, half an hour, an hour ago.
• 0:36
  I thought we'd be done. I thought, OK, maybe Dale
• 0:39
  Earnhardt Junior brings this up on his podcast next week and we
• 0:43
  would have some more information.
• 0:44
  And of course, I go to X and Dale Earnhardt Junior had
• 0:47
  already just put out a statement in the last, I don't know, last
• 0:52
  hour or so. So I figured because I did a
• 0:54
  live stream talking about this, it wouldn't make sense to just
• 0:58
  have Dale Junior comment and then not do another video on it.
• 1:03
  So I will get you Dale Earnhardt Junior statement right here.
• 1:06
  This is from one O 1:00 PM Central time.
• 1:10
  So it's about 40 minutes ago and he basically released a
• 1:15
  statement on X, but it was through Junior Motorsports and I
• 1:19
  will show it to you all right there.
• 1:22
  There it is. But I'll read it for you.
• 1:25
  It says quote through the USTPOI looked that one up.
• 1:31
  That is the United States trademark.
• 1:36
  What is it, Office? It is the United States
• 1:40
  Trademark and Patent Office that is the USTPO, he says.
• 1:44
  Through the USTPO, we successfully secured the rights
• 1:48
  to the stylized 8. Therefore, we will be moving
• 1:53
  away from the original JRM Junior Motorsports 8 we have
• 1:58
  used since 2019. We are looking forward to the
• 2:02
  remainder of an already successful season.
• 2:05
  Then he signs it. Dale Earnhardt, Junior, and you
• 2:07
  have the letterhead, Junior Motorsports.
• 2:10
  This is so silly, but I do find this funny.
• 2:13
  So look at the different eights. OK, you got the the 1st 8, all
• 2:19
  right. Then you got the other 8, right?
• 2:22
  It's pretty similar. OK, this one's a little
• 2:25
  different. This is crazy, folks.
• 2:28
  This is what we're talking about.
• 2:30
  Lamar Jackson, Dylan Hart, Junior.
• 2:33
  Lamar Jackson went after Junior. He went after Troy Aikman.
• 2:35
  But this is what we're talking about.
• 2:38
  I mean, look at the eights, OK? They're different.
• 2:41
  OK, One's thicker. There's more space in between
• 2:45
  the Lamar Jackson 8. I'll tell you what, just because
• 2:47
  I'm here, I don't want this video to be like 2 seconds.
• 2:51
  I'll. I'll see Lamar Jackson's era 8.
• 2:57
  I had not looked this up before. It's an 8.
• 3:00
  It's a number, folks. That's all it is.
• 3:02
  Let's see era 8. I want to see how close it looks
• 3:05
  to one of the the junior eights. OK, here we go.
• 3:09
  Era 8 apparel for Lamar Jackson. You got hoodies, you got
• 3:14
  sweatshirts, you got all that. I honestly don't see the 8
• 3:18
  anywhere on all these sweatshirts and whatnot.
• 3:22
  Era 8 by Lamar Jackson, I just see a bunch of sweatshirts and
• 3:27
  whatnot. I just want to see the the
• 3:29
  number 8 and see how close this is.
• 3:32
  This is what we're all disputing, or at least he is.
• 3:35
  This is silly, folks. This is silly.
• 3:38
  Come on now. Era 8 Era 8 apparel.
• 3:45
  I mean, I don't know. I don't get it.
• 3:50
  I don't get it at all. I don't get it whatsoever.
• 3:52
  I'm not even to look anymore. I see 18.
• 3:55
  Here's this one T-shirt Era 8. It looks like a block 8.
• 4:00
  That one, the black, that doesn't look anything like
• 4:04
  Junior's 8, right? I'm trying to find the logo for
• 4:10
  Lamar Jackson. And like I said, I'm only doing
• 4:13
  this again because I finished the live stream and because Dale
• 4:17
  Earnhardt Junior responded, I felt like I might as well come
• 4:20
  on do another video. It makes sense because we have
• 4:22
  more info on the story and it sure seems like now that this
• 4:26
  story can be settled that it's over, right?
• 4:30
  I would think with this statement from Dale Earnhardt
• 4:32
  Junior and Junior Motorsports, which I will again read for you,
• 4:37
  there it is, there's a statement.
• 4:39
  I got it on X. I'm sure it's on all the
• 4:40
  different social media platforms.
• 4:43
  He says through the USTPO, the United States Trademark and
• 4:49
  Patent Office, we successfully secured the rights to the
• 4:52
  stylized 8. Therefore, we will be moving
• 4:55
  away from the original JRM 8 we have used since 2019.
• 5:01
  We are looking forward to the remainder of an already
• 5:03
  successful season and quote Dale Earnhardt, Junior from Junior
• 5:06
  Motorsports. I just find this so funny.
• 5:08
  I'm sorry, right? So if this is what they had to
• 5:13
  do, and I'm sure Dale will talk about this, but I just find this
• 5:16
  so funny that look at that. OK, one's thicker, right?
• 5:22
  They're both italics looking, not that much difference.
• 5:28
  Clearly there's a little more space in between the 8 on top.
• 5:32
  The one on the bottom there, the original JRM is thicker.
• 5:35
  As I said, they're both italics. This is silly.
• 5:40
  This is silly, folks. All right, while I'm here
• 5:44
  though, we're at 5:45 for the YouTube.
• 5:48
  I'll take it to 8 minutes. This is just a funny story.
• 5:52
  I find this story funny. Like, do you really think, does
• 5:56
  Lamar Jackson really think that anything Dale Earnhardt junior
• 5:59
  would have sold with the number 8, whether it's red, whatever it
• 6:04
  is, would that really have impacted his business, his merch
• 6:08
  at all at all? Come on, folks, come on.
• 6:12
  This is crazy. I will read a couple more
• 6:15
  comments here because again, now, now I'm just admitting it
• 6:17
  to you. I thought this video was going
• 6:19
  to be about two minutes. We're at 6:20.
• 6:21
  We're going to make it to 8. OK.
• 6:23
  That's what we do on YouTube. I'm just sorry.
• 6:24
  I'm just being honest. 8 minute videos, that's what we do.
• 6:26
  We can put ads in the middle. I'm just being honest.
• 6:29
  I'm shooting straight with you guys.
• 6:30
  Charlie Marlowe here on the Kenny Wallace YouTube channel.
• 6:34
  AZ Dodge says nobody owns the number itself.
• 6:37
  It's the font and design that is trademarked.
• 6:40
  Yes, agreed. But like, is it really?
• 6:44
  Are they really that close? Honestly?
• 6:47
  I mean, I'll look it up again. I couldn't even find an era
• 6:50
  eight that looked anything like that.
• 6:53
  Let me let me look one more time.
• 6:55
  I'll be the first one to admit I didn't do five hours of research
• 7:01
  on this story. Let's see 8 logo.
• 7:04
  I'm trying to find the exact look of Lamar Jackson's logo.
• 7:09
  I love this is funny too though, and this is what people do in
• 7:12
  the media. Look, I understand, I'm talking
• 7:13
  about it too, but we got people like feud, Lamar Jackson, Dale
• 7:20
  Earnhardt, Junior, they're feuding.
• 7:23
  I saw no one said bitter feud. That was the Daily Mail bitter
• 7:28
  feud. I do think it's petty.
• 7:29
  Daily Mail called it petty. I think this is Petty.
• 7:33
  Not talking about Richard Petty, not talking about Kyle Petty.
• 7:35
  I think this is petty on Lamar Jackson's front.
• 7:40
  OK, here it is. Here's a tweet from Jeff Cross
• 7:45
  says so. Lots of confusion going on here.
• 7:47
  Lamar Jackson's team is concerned the JRM #8 font font,
• 7:52
  not the DEI #8 font. Technically, JRM owns both
• 7:56
  fonts. Still, they kept the JRM #8 font
• 7:59
  in case the DEI #8 font fell through.
• 8:02
  So here we go. This is from this guy Jeff
• 8:06
  Krauss. Krauss on on X Hold on.
• 8:13
  So there we go. Boom, boom, boom.
• 8:19
  OK, they're similar. I get it.
• 8:21
  They're similar. White with black.
• 8:25
  I mean white with black. But the red, I mean Dale Junior
• 8:28
  synonymous with the red. Come on now, folks.
• 8:30
  OK, I get it. It's not about the number.
• 8:32
  It's about the font, the stylized font.
• 8:34
  I still think it's all silly. It's all silly.
• 8:36
  And I think this story is now over with Dale Earnhardt Junior
• 8:40
  responding. And once again, I will read his
• 8:42
  statement. And the only reason I'm telling
• 8:44
  you just I've never called myself a journalist, all right?
• 8:48
  I just talked. But journalistically, I felt
• 8:51
  like if I did a 19 minute live stream talking about this story
• 8:54
  and then I get on X and I see Dale Earnhardt Junior had
• 8:56
  responded, I felt like it makes sense to read his response.
• 9:00
  And I think the story is now over and I'll show it one more
• 9:03
  time. I'll read it one more time and
• 9:04
  then I will be done. And I apologize because I
• 9:06
  thought this video was going to be 2-3 minutes and it's going to
• 9:08
  be 10, but it is what it is, he writes Dale Earnhardt Junior.
• 9:12
  Through the USTPO, the United States Trademark and Patent
• 9:15
  Office, we successfully secured the right to the stylized 8.
• 9:20
  Therefore, we will be moving away from the original JRM 8 we
• 9:24
  have used since 2019. We're looking forward to the
• 9:27
  remainder of an already successful season and quote Dale
• 9:30
  Earnhardt Junior Junior Motorsports.
• 9:32
  I think, I think now that will be the end of this story, but I
• 9:38
  don't know. And you know what, I don't want
• 9:40
  to say I don't care anymore, but I think I don't care anymore.
• 9:43
  So if something else happens with this story, I probably
• 9:45
  won't be doing a video on it because I'm bored with it.
• 9:48
  But you know what? Kenny Wallace probably will.
• 9:51
  I was talking with him earlier. I said, hey, I'll do a live
• 9:53
  stream If something happens, maybe tomorrow Kenny will come
• 9:56
  on and give his thoughts on the 8, the font, the stylized 8 and
• 10:01
  all that. Lamar Jackson and Dale Earnhardt
• 10:03
