Major League Baseball Commissioner Bug Selig has cracked the whip on amateur baseball teams across the country for infringing on MLB’s trademarked team names.

Now in a similar situation, Scrooge Selig has declared war on 12-year-olds across America, sending the infringement police to Little League baseball, ordering teams to change their names or face lawsuits.
