The Seattle Seahawks?will pay $140,000 to?Texas A&M?for limited rights to the schools 12th Man trademark as part of a new five-year deal announced Thursday between the two parties.As part of the new five-year deal obtained by ESPN, the Seahawks will pay a royalty fee of $18,000 a year for using the mark in the Pacific Northwest. The Seahawks also will have to pay $10,000 a year to the Aggies to help support the school in its fight to protect the trademark.Unlike the terms of the earlier deals, which were initiated in 2006 and re-signed in 2011, the Seahawks will no longer use 12th Man on their Ring of Honor, nor will the team use 12th Man on its social media handles. The team has never been permitted to put 12th Man on merchandise.We are obviously pleased to have in place the new agreement with the Seattle Seahawks that serves to control and minimize any use of Texas A&Ms trademark 12th Man by any entity other than Texas A&M and its authorized licensees, Texas A&M system chancellor John Sharp said in a statement.Over the past couple of years, the Seahawks have used the 12th Man phrase on fewer occasions as the team has shifted to using 12 and 12s, which Seattle has sought to own.The Seahawks filed for their first 12 trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in April 2006 with Spirit of 12, which it became a registered owner of in 2008. Since then, the Seahawks -- under their parent company, Football Northwest -- filed for trademarks using 12 or 12s on 52 occasions.The Seahawks are the owners of 12, The 12s, We Are 12s.Texas A&M and the Seahawks began working together after the university took legal action against the team for using the phrase Texas A&M had trademarked in 1990 without its permission.After the initial lump sum of $100,000 in 2006, the Seahawks had been paying $5,000 a year. The amount of the fee in the new deal that runs through 2021 is unknown.As with the former contracts, the compensation is not expected to be large, but it is nonetheless important for the school. Having a contract for use with an NFL team further helps establish the value of Texas A&Ms trademark.In November, Texas A&M sued the Indianapolis Colts for using the 12th Man without the schools permission. The lawsuit was settled with no money changing hands after the Colts agreed to stop using it. E.J.

LONDON -- If Serena Williams?defeats?Angelique Kerber in the Wimbledon final (Saturday, 9 a.m. ET on ESPN/WatchESPN), she will equal Steffi Grafs modern-era record of 22 Grand Slam titles.However, the German has stopped that from happening once already, beating the world No. 1 in the Australian Open final in January. Here are five reasons Kerber could stop history from being made again:Melbourne memoriesUsually, its Williams who has the psychological advantage before a Grand Slam final. This time? Not so much. This is one of those rare occasions when a player can take great encouragement from a recent encounter with Williams at a major.Kerbers first Grand Slam triumph came at the Australian Open, when she defeated Williams in three sets. That was on a hard court, and Wimbledons 4-seed experienced a first-round clay-court blip at Roland Garros, but she ought to be feeling assured of her game.Williams woeSerena hasnt won a Grand Slam for a year, and twice already this season she has faltered in a major final when strongly favoured to win.Achieving a tally of 21 titles is special, but Williams seems stuck there. After that disappointment against Kerber in Melbourne, she lost to Spains Garbine Muguruza at Roland Garros last month.Add those two most recent Grand Slam defeats to the almighty shock in New York last season -- when she lost to Italys Roberta Vinci in the semifinals at the US Open -- and you can see a pattern emerging.One of Williams great strengths is her mental fortitude -- her will to win has won her countless matches and titles -- but she can also be prone to self-doubt and nerves.If Williams goes down a set, and Kerber is playing well, how will the American respond?Misleading matchupWilliams lopsided semifinal victory against Elena Vesnina is no guarantee of success in the final, even though she needed just 48 miinutes to defeat the unseeded Russian 6-2, 6-0 in the fastest-ever Wimbledon semifinal.ddddddddddddRecall what happened in Melbourne, where Williams was in command of her semifinal, beating Polands Agnieszka Radwanska for the loss of just four games, including one bagel set, only to then lose in the final to Kerber.There is a huge jump in class between Vesnina, the worlds No. 50, and Kerber, ranked No. 4 and a Grand Slam champion.Left-field dangerA good southpaw serve is always awkward for opponents, but never more so than on grass, where the ball skids away from the receiver.Kerbers view is that her left-handed delivery could be more of a weapon on the grass of Centre Court than it was on the hard of Melbournes Rod Laver Arena. I can serve a little better, and that makes me much more dangerous than on hard, she said.Williams has faced only right-handed opponents this fortnight, so she hasnt had any recent match practice against a lefty serve.Steffi sparkIts not just Williams who could take inspiration from modern-era Grand Slam record holder Steffi Graf on Saturday. On both sides of the net, the finalists will be thinking about Fraulein Forehand.The German has long been an important and influential figure in Kerbers tennis life. For years, she idolised Graf and watched her whenever she could. She has also studied some of the 47-year-olds highlights on YouTube.The connection between them was only strengthened by victory at the Australian Open, which made Kerber the first German woman to score a Slam since her idol won at Roland Garros in 1999.Kerber savours her opportunities to spend time with Graf. Now she will want to emulate Graf by becoming her countrys first female champion here in 20 years.
