You're not supposed to be able to own raw data, but I remember reading something about how courts are going the other way on this. -- nm - Raul Sep 5, 12:19 4
- I would agree with CBS's stance reflexively, as the thought of statistics being owned bothers me -- nm - crash davis Sep 5, 12:30 3
  - yeah. next thing you know, the Weather Channel will claim rights to the temperature and humidity stats -- nm - Guy Sep 5, 13:49
  - If you sit down in front of a game on Sunday and jot down a note about yardage, are you stealing? -- nm - Raul Sep 5, 12:41 1
    - good point - I've bought scorecards at baseball games and kept score. Was I stealing and did the team enable me by selling the score card? -- nm - crash davis Sep 5, 12:49
