The parents of players on the Jackie Robinson West youth baseball team, which was stripped over the 2014 U.S. Little League championship in a residency scandal, have sued the volunteers who ran the team, the rival coaches who turned them in, Little League Baseball, ESPN and commentator Stephen A. Smith.

The story of the all-black JRW team’s journey from the South Side of Chicago to the world championship game captivated the nation in the summer of 2014, but the story unfolding behind the scenes had few heroes, according to the lawsuit filed Thursday in Cook County Circuit Court.

League officials knew ineligible players were on the JRW roster a week after the team’s Cinderella run ended with an 8-4 loss to South Korea, but they did nothing to strip the team of their U.S. title until after they had inked a new deal with ESPN. Two months later, top Little League officials posed with JRW players and President Barack Obama at the White House.

Birds of a feather: They should have had Sharpton, Jackson, Rahm Emanuel, and maybe add Bill and Hillary as examples of the heights one can attain using such behaviour. Role Models
