Johnny Manziel still wants the rights to Johnny Football.A lawyer representing Manziel and his company, JMan2 Enterprises, filed paperwork with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on Friday, one day before the nickname would have been abandoned.An explanation, which needed to tie Manziel and his company to the trademark filing, was due on Oct. 1, six months after an examining attorney asked for the documentation.Even though Manziel still isnt the owner of the trademark, he did benefit from it.Right after Manziel was drafted, his representatives negotiated to allow the NFL Players Association to sell the nickname to its licensees in exchange for giving Manziel a higher percentage of royalties from sales of his gear, sources told ESPN.When he did an autograph deal with Panini Authentic, he was able to get more money by agreeing to inscribe Johnny Football along with his autograph.Manziel applied for the trademark in February 2013, but he had to wait in line because a Texas A&M booster had filed for the trademark before him. After it was clear that Manziel wanted it for himself, the A&M backer transferred the right to pursue the trademark to Manziels company.The 2012 Heisman Trophy winner was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the first round of the 2014 draft. He was cut two years later after many instances of trouble off the field. . Denis Coderre, the former federal MP who was elected mayor on Nov. 3, has drawn the ire of some Montreal Canadiens. During last nights game he tweeted: "Hello? Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please.

The 29-year-old Baines has established himself as one of the top attacking full backs in the country and was the subject of two bids from United during the last off-season. Everton manager Roberto Martinez says that keeping Baines at the club is a "massive boost and exciting for the future" because he brings "maturity and football knowledge in a very specialized position on the pitch" and an "infectious and positive influence to the rest of the squad. . Oyama had six birdies and two bogeys at Kintetsu Kashikojima in the event also sanctioned by the Japan LPGA Tour. "I have been having this neck ache thats been affecting my golf recently," Oyama said. [url=http://www.kcchiefsnflfansclub.com/Black-Tanoh-Kpassagnon-Chiefs-Jersey.htm... Kpassagnon Womens Jersey . MLS Commissioner Don Garber and Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez also will attend the session, which was announced Monday. The league has discussed placing its next two expansion teams in Miami and Atlanta. If you are a genuine fan of Roger Federer, you should vigorously applaud his decision to bail on the rest of the 2016 tennis season.No, you wont see Federer in a few weeks time, feet falling along the baseline as softly as a cats, stalking the elusive singles gold medal in a farewell Olympic performance in Rio. Or later in August, flicking sweet forehands at the National Tennis Center in Flushing in the quest for his sixth US Open title.In his present, somewhat-less-than-his-best condition, you wouldnt have seen ultimate success anyway.But -- assuming a few months of rest and rehabilitation can bring his dodgy left knee back to a sound level -- the inconvenience of missing out on those late-summer visuals has a massive upside for the athlete who turns 35 in 13 days:It likely means a few more years of the less-than-vintage-but-still-stylish Federer we have come to know in recent years -- which isnt half-bad. In fact, its still better than good.Indeed, the mood at the Team8 offices in Pepper Pike, Ohio on Tuesday was upbeat.There is no gloom and doom in our camp, insisted Tony Godsick, Federers longtime agent. The decision was unfortunate, on the face, a bummer, but it was encouraging, too. It shows he still wants to get out there and give it a few more years.Since winning Wimbledon in 2012, the final major in his portfolio that includes a record 17-Grand Slam singles titles, Federer has been essentially rolling through an extended, elevated victory lap. He made the final at Wimbledon in 2014 and 2015 and a year ago at the US Open.Perhaps more telling, after reaching five ATP World Tour 1000 finals in 2014, winning two of them (Cincinnati and Shanghai), he made three master finals a year ago, winning only in Cincinnati.This year? Only 28 matches and zero major or masters finals.The season began typically enough. Federer got to the final in Brisbane and reached the semifinals at the Australian Open for the 12th time in 13 season. But in early February, he underwent surgery meniscus surgery, the first of his career. When he came back a few months later, he wasnt quite himself.Although a cranky back was blamed for his pullout in Madrid, the knee was always the major issue. He lost to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the quarters of Monte Carlo and to 22-year-old Dominic Thiem at the Italian Open before opting to skip the French Open, hiis first major miss since the 1999 US Open, ending a record of 65 consecutive Grand Slam appearances.ddddddddddddThe return to his favorite surface was not encouraging; Federer lost again to Thiem on the grass in the Stuttgart semifinals and, a week later, to teenager Alexander Zverev in the semis of Halle, an event the Swiss had won eight times. In retrospect, it approaches amazing that earlier this month Federer reached the semifinals at Wimbledon before losing to Milos Raonic -- in five sets.Actually, Godsick said, he did quite well being where he would not like to be.In the end, I think he realized the competition, as tough as it is, you dont help yourself by playing less than your best. Now he can manage his schedule and take the steps necessary to get bigger, faster and stronger.Godsick would not offer details, but said that by creating a window of four months without competitive tennis -- instead of the usual one -- Federer was giving himself more than enough cushion to come back completely healthy to start 2017.So if the doctor says he needs a certain number of weeks, now he can afford to give it even more time, Godsick said. Everyone on this team is an optimist, and hes the chief optimist.More than anything, Federer seems to love being Federer. Deep in his mind, he has to know another Grand Slam title is increasingly unlikely. Still, he enjoys being in the hunt, maybe more importantly, in the conversation. Clearly, its fun, and there are still millions of more dollars to make. With four children, thats not a minor consideration.The love I have for tennis, the competition, tournaments and of course you, the fans remains intact, Federer wrote in a Facebook post. I am as motivated as ever and plan to put all my energy towards coming back strong, healthy and in shape to play attacking tennis in 2017.Not just tennis, attacking tennis. Federer is currently ranked No. 3 in the world behind Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. Will the tennis world change appreciably when younger players like Raonic, Thiem, Zverev and Nick Kyrgios move past him? In a word, no.If the goal is to go and play as long as you can, Godsick said, its the right decision.Let the Federer flowing, fluid victory lap continue.
