Default calvin ayre challenges patent troll to fight for bodog name and $1mill

More proof that Calvin Ayre is the coolest ceo on the planet: he has put an open challenge to Scott Lewis (the patent troll) for an MMA style fight. He said he'd put up $1,000,000 and the rights to the Bodog name in a blog entry at CalvinAyre.com.

Please go and digg this so it gets attention, maybe picked up elsewhere, and MAYBE we'll get to see Calvin Ayre in the ring settling this [censored] the old fashioned way [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

That is pretty ballsy but what is their beef with each other, the article did not specify except something about extortion and that could be a number of things, anyone know?

The man is a grandstanding bonehead. The patent troll has got him thoroughly thrashed in the US courts. Why then, would he bother to fight him for it?

Now if he was offering double or quits, and put the money in escrow in a US bank, he might get a taker. Otherwise, why would patent guy bother? He's already won it.
