I have a product idea. What does it mean when something says "Licensed by the NFL"? Does everything have to be licensed, I mean, let's say it's a football ( a common object), but it represents something in the NFL(like the football phones with team logo), does this have to be licensed? If it deals with a specific identity that is found only in the NFL is that what causes it to be licensed? If manufacturer already produces a licensed product, can they then produce another product much more easily? Is it better to sell a product idea, if possible than it is to keep it and try to do it on your own?

Anything with a logo owned by someone else must be licensed by the owner to use the logo. Each product requires a separate license. Companies that already have licenses have less difficulty acquiring additional licenses because they are know the the people/organizations the must grant the license.
