You Can't Coach That

Italy to Sue New Zealand

[Via Royters]

In what is expected to be the first case of its kind Italy is set to sue New Zealand for an undisclosed sum. The issue at the centre of this historic dispute is said to be the rights to the “Boot” design (refer to images below)

The Italian Minister for Cultural Identity was quoted yesterday as saying:

“We have been the Boot for as long as anyone can remember. Caesar himself registered the design. We will not let some young upstart of a Country steal a part of our heritage.”

New Zealand has countered with the claim that they are in fact an ankle boot as opposed to the knee-high design of the Italians.

The case is expected to be heard before Judge Michael Sauer next week.

“You can’t coach that”

As always - a great post.  I’ve been reading, but wanted to stop by and say hello!!

bwaa-haah
Wonder if both countries feel like “heels”.

Ok, that was so bad that I had better get out of here quick!

People will argue about anything won’t they?  This is kind of silly if you ask me.  Have a great day Coach.
