Mr. Sallen,
Take a look in the mirror. You are a cybersquatter. You lost the Corinthians and Cruzeiro decisions because you registered several domain names identical to Brazilian soccer teams and then you contacted the teams with offers to sell. When they rejected your offers to sell, you put up bibical quotes on Corinthians.com.
You have registered many domain names containing famous trademarks. This decision is less about past "sucks" decisions, and more about your own specific conduct.
Wake up, you are a cybersquatter.

On December 5, 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reversed the decision of the United States District Court of Massachusetts, remanding the Corinthians case back to the District Court. The District Court had ruled that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction with regard to Mr. Sallen's challenge to an order of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) that the domain name corinthians.com be transferred to a Brazilian corporation pursuant to a Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) proceeding. The Court of Appeals held that Federal subject matter jurisdiction does extend to such claims.
The opinion of the United States Court of Appeals can be read at the following link:
