MLBAM, MLBPA Will Appeal Fantasy Stats Ruling
By Staci D. Kramer - Wed 09 Aug 2006 12:10 PM PST
Would be a lot more suprising if they decided not to appeal ... MLB Advanced Media and the MLB Players Association plan to appeal Monday’s ruling that historical facts can’t be copyrighted. From the statement: We are disappointed by the Court’s decision yesterday in CBC v. MLBPA and MLBAM. We expect to appeal the decision, and remain confident that we will prevail in that effort. We continue to believe that the use of the players, without their consent, to create this type of commercial venture is improper.”
