Due to the growing popularity of on-line secondary ticket markets, the interest in domain names with team names in them have also become popular. But, buyer beware: Teams can rip those domains right from you if they are "confusingly similar" to the team's name.
A firm that handles arbitration in this type of dispute was recently quoted as saying the Yankees recently won a case over the rights to the domain nyyankees.com. The domain used to contain third-party links to ticket reseller websites, but now redirects to yankees.com.
