Great game, great win, great pride.

As a whole, that was a great series. The entire thing from start to finish. Would like to have seen TN beat Panama!
Congrats USA!!
And thanks to the umpire for the favorable call in the 6th. ::))

Bob, please rephrase the thread title before Steelhead see's it! --------- Laffin' Steelie loves this kind of kid's stuff so he'll likely refrain. We can all ignore our triggers for a nano-second when cool life stuff like this crosses our desks.

Did you happen to notice that most of the kids most favored player was Bryce Harper?
While I'm a huge Nat's fan he might be about as vain as they come. He got ejected in last night's game and cared more about his hair then the ejection, which really hurt the team.
Too bad these players like Harper and Kaepernick do not realize the young eyes that are upon them. Having said that the ump was handing out some questionable calls.
Kap can bite me!!
Aside from a very few bad apples, I'm so proud of America's youth when it comes to International sports!!

I was in and out of my chair every bit as much as I am with that frikken college football pool Will runs by us each year.
And when I get off my chair or stool for a sporting event, it's for something very cool and a solid distraction from the schit us 40 plus guys deal with Mon-Saturday.

My daughter and I watched a bit of the LLWS and thoroughly enjoyed it. There are some talented young men that will never forget their time playing baseball in America.

I think a comparison between Harper and Pete Rose is more accurate than Kapperneck.

Yeah, I would have expected the thread title here to read:
Commie, Liberal, Yankee, NY Wimps Barely Beat A Few Slope-heads.
Why, I'm sure any Texas T-Ball team could have beat them 20-1. Way to go NY!!!

The way the NY pitcher dissected the Korean batters was nothing short of amazing for a 12 year old. powdr
