For example..

Let's say Miami heat basketball team. I take the state miami map and put MH in the middle of it resembling Miami heat and sell that as a t-shirt. Would that be copyright? I am not using the full name Miami heat just the initials.

Thanks
Michael

    I'm not too sure on this one as there's no one definite answer.

    Miami is a city in Florida, not a state... just saying.
