I think John Elway might be a little bored. Apparently he is not happy with the local punk band,"Elway" for using his name. His lawyers have issued a cease and desist to the band to stop using his name but, the band has different ideas. In a statement from the band on punknews.org,

We have no intention of changing the name again. We love the name, regardless of what connotations are inferred by the listener. Surely, if the Dead Kennedys could become one of punk's most popular bands without incurring litigation, Elway can keep their moniker and continue making so-so music for our dozens of fans to enjoy.

I say good for the band! I am pretty sure that there are other people in the world that have that last name, so I don't think he can claim it. If anything this is free publicity for them and nothing says punk like saying, "screw your lawsuit!"
