Hey Comish Bud Selig, these gamer clowns just raised $25 mil and they robbed you of your logo. What are your going to do about it?

Major League Gaming, a professional video-game league based in NYC, has raised a big $25M round from Oak Investment Partners, says PE Wire. This follows a $10M round earlier this year led by Ritchie Capital. Also earlier this year, the company appointed Matthew Bromberg, the former GM of Time Warner's Moviefone and AOL Games properties, as President and COO.
