The Threshers finally reached out to me. Got this e-mail from their asst. GM.
Dan,

Let me first apologize for the unapproved use of one of your images. I’m not sure if you remember me but we met a few years ago when you were at a game with Brian.

We are addressing this situation to ensure this does not happen again. Also, we will include an omission notice and credit you in the May Threshers Times issue. Additionally I would like to offer you, Brian and his son complimentary tickets to an upcoming game.

Thank you for your patience. I look forward to talking to you soon.
Got what I wanted. I just wanted that credit. Maybe because he knows my brother (Brian) so well, that he thinks he could get off easy. I'm sure I could push for more, but I won't. I plan on going to games there on Friday and Saturday, so we'll see if they confront me in person.

I talked to the asst. GM at the game tonight. He told me that the team felt they owned the rights to the image since they authorized Fleer (the baseball card company) to create the card, which Bunz stated and I sort of agreed with, but because it was autographed and on my own site, I should have been asked for permission to use. He once again offered free tickets to an upcoming game, but I countered. I saw that Naughty by Nature (sans Vinnie) is performing a post-game concert in July. I asked if he could let me meet them. He couldn't give me a definitive answer, but he did write in his notebook to look into for me.

Since this was bumped, I might as well post an update.

The May issue of their magazine came out and they posted a correction.

They gave my site credit. That's good enough for me.
