It is not "illegal". To say that something is illegal is to imply that it is against the law. If you use their logo without their permission, you're not going to to be criminally charged. It is, however a trademark (not copyright) infringement for which you can be sued, and for which the court will award damages to the owner of the trademark. That's if you get caught.

The team logos are copyrighted, so if you want to use them, you have to have permission. If you use them without permission, and they find out, they can sue you.

Yes it is illegal and there is no way to make it legal unless they give you permission legally.

Yes, it's illegal and you can get sued and fined. Go to their website and email them asking permission. It will most likely be denied.

of direction this is unlawful. those trademarks and the rights to apply those trademarks belong to the communities. no one is authorized to apply them for his or her very own very own earnings. this could be purely such as you entering into to your community retail save and shoplifting merchandise. trademarks are the psychological property of the group. Taking them is stealing.
