I doubt that. I may be wrong, but our banner would likely fall under Fair Use.
Q, the Internet is very very sktchy on copyright law because there has not been an international law established for what can and cannot be on the internet. That being said, if any of those teams, players or leagues pictured state that their logos cannot be used without consent, then they'd have to be removed. Canoe, for example, has very clear usage policies stated on their website, and anyone found disobeying those laws can be subject to a lawsuit. How often that happens, I don't know; but in my capacity as an editor for a Canoe subsite, I've asked fan sites to remove and I've never had a counter argument.
Now for the HI Mag, though, that's a different story. Advice to Bruce -- if you plan on using any photos, be they regular shots or card images in the print version, make sure you have permissions in place. Print publications cannot simply publish photos at least without proper credits. the card manufacturers and memorabilia peeps will usually say "yeah you can print stuff from our products, no problem", but get it in writing.
Any other photo though must have proper accreditation with a traceable source. When I shot photos for CSM/CSC of the CFL or what have you, I had photo accreditation from the host team. If we used a photo from Getty, we paid Getty for the use and they had all the licensing already in place.
