Is purchasing a domain name with a sports team (i.e. FloridaMarlins.com) a trademark infringement? Thanks for the help! :)

most likely the name is trademarked. you will be shooting yourself in the leg.

Trademark infringement? absolutely!

The question here though, is it legal infringement based on the guidelines of good faith?

So what would your plans be for this site?

Well, truth is, I do not even have a website that is of a sports team. The reason I posted is because I thought I saw "AtlantaHawks.com" dropped so, I wanted to know before I would get myself into anything I would regret later. It worked out for the best though because it turned out to be "AltlantaHawks.com". Heh. That's what I get for skimming so fast and now, I know something for future reference.

Thanks for all your help!
