Why Does MLB Hate Obama?

A couple weeks ago, we directed you to a site selling the most awesome t-shirts in the world. When we saw our love for Obama combined with our love of the White Sox combined into one and printed on 100% cotton, our credit card came right out. After waiting two agonizing weeks, we got the goods in the mail last week -- a few days ahead of the March 15 expected ship date.

Obama of Dreams had over a dozen different designs with versions of MLB team logos reworked to include Obama's name. On Tuesday, Major League Baseball had Obama of Dreams shut down by sending them a cease and desist letter threatening legal action.

It's a good thing they got those White Sox shirts out the door early... but were fans of other teams as lucky? Any of you Cubs fans get one?

Now, we're torn about what to do with our shirt -- do we still wear it? Or will it become some sort of valuable collectors item? Oh, if only we'd ordered two...
