I have a similar app (http://pickmoto.com) for iPhone and iPad. It's clear that we can't legally use the logos without a license. But of course the leagues aren't going to pay attention to indie developers until they are genuine threats. At that point, maybe you could afford to pay for the license or work something out.

We decided against risking it with logos because Apple could yank us at a moment's notice even if we made it into the Store. And considering that some of the best selling apps are developed by the Leagues, we imagine Apple would be pretty quick to act if the Leagues asked.

So instead, we're using pennants without logos. Not ideal, but safer.

I found this app before the season started. I've been playing it with some friends of mine and it's a lot of fun, you did a great job!

The NFL and MLB have very litigious IP counsel, who are kept on retainer and paid very generous amounts of money solely to police for unlicensed uses of their trademarks. In all likelihood, they've already got a cease-and-desist for sportschimp working up right now.
