Is Leaf Rize the official name now? 4,700+ auctions on eBay and Rize is on Leaf's product page

No, licensing doesn't confuse "so many people". I'm obviously talking about being licensed by the MLB, which is exclusive to Topps of course. Listen, I could put together drawings of players done by 5 year olds, with on card autos from prospects, and could get them licensed.
Spare me the BS if you don't mind. Obviously this stuff is licensed--but it doesn't give an ounce to the credibility of the product-or should I say products (as in what, 4 or 5 Leaf prospect based products now?). I was a fan when it was just Leaf Valiant and Leaf Draft, but this has gotten way out of hand.
**Disclaimer** This is all my opinion

Not to spite opinion here, but LEAF is a business looking to make money. We can all chose what we like and what to buy, and I fail to see how anything 'Rize' related is going to hamper the hobby at all save for perhaps reflecting poorly on the LEAF trademark. This, other that potential wordsmiths making something out of what BG may have said or implied, is really meaningless. Who really cares? I mean really cares other than to chew the fat? Does anyone really think because LEAF Rize cards are out there that it is going to lessen the value of your 'other' brand cards? Lol, No....

Your position in the original thread from last year, was that you'd have your legal staff order eBay to remove any auctions with the title "Leaf Rize" in them.
If your position has not changed, then why are there thousands of auctions with Leaf Rize in the title?
And why is Rize listed on your Leaf products page if it's not your product, only licensed for another company's product.

Sure I know what you mean here, but whether or not real confusion is involved it's not fair to provide inaccurate information to suit multiple agendas and yet people do it here all the time. Sure someone may not like cards that aren't MLB licensed which is absolutely fine to explicitly state.
To all of this it's fair to say that it's particularly odd that MLB licensing affects prospecting at all given real prospects lack any MLB experience whatsoever.
If there were any logic in licensing at all, player licensing would be most important across all parts of the hobby... but that's another topic of discussion.
Times are different now.
I'm way less sensitive to this kind of stuff these days. In the grand scheme of things, language in images just do not matter as long as it isn't over the top.

Thanks Chris. I was just trying to be funny and thought it worked quite well.

So if "Mother F'er" isn't over the top, what exactly is?
Its not the language, its the fact that its a very well known movie quote.
Im not here to enforce morality. I will keep this site clear of ****, and safe for most ages but that does not include censoring pulp fiction.
Kudos Chris.
