The Top Ten Losing TTAB Arguments: 2001 Edition

In 2001, I first created my list of "The Top Ten Losing TTAB Arguments" in an article published in Allen's Trademark Digest. (pdf here). The article provided my commentary on the top ten losers, with exemplary cases. The 2024 list is slightly different. I do not claim that all of these arguments are automatic losers, but as to the 2024 list specifically, I think five of them are always losers (1, 2, 5, 7, and 10), three are nearly always losers (4, 8, and 9), and two are usually losers (3 and 6).
