Another Swimmer Lawsuit? No Shock Here!

Posted June 30, 2009 at 2:04 am by Suz in Oh Snap!

It seems like every few months there a lawsuit filed on behalf of a swimmer against some triflin former sponsor that just couldn’t get their shit together.

We’ve seen it with Kaitlin Sandeno, Aaron Peirsol, and Mark Spitz. And now it’s Amanda Beard’s turn.

Olympic gold medalist swimmer Amanda Beard claims GoDaddy.com breached a 2008 settlement agreement in which the Web host company agreed to stop using her name and image. In the suit filed in Superior Court, Beard said the December 2008 agreement terminated a previous contract she had with GoDaddy.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, Go Daddy. Be prepared to feel the stiff arm of justice!

Speaking of GoDaddy, though, I think I need to renew some domains I have registered there. Not this one, though!

      Totally not relevant to Amanda Beard or Go Daddy, but is anyone going to Indy next week?

      Out of the crew here, I will be the only one making the trip. Indy is only 2.5 hours from me, so I really don’t have much of an excuse not to go!
