    I know it may sound like I'm joking, but if you take the name and the cover art, it is quite clear that they are exactly copying or at least trying to look exactly like Monday Night Football's aesthetic, so I'm just wondering if they have had to pay any sort of money to the NFL, Disney, or anyone else who may own a slice of the American institution that is Monday Night Football... If not, they are definitely flirting with a lawsuit. And if anyone thinks I'm wrong about that, they don't know anything about the legal departments of companies like these...

    There is no possibility of a lawsuit here. You're ridiculous.
