Little League World Series

Every august I like to watching some of the Little League World Series, mostly because the kids are so passionate about it.  These 11 to 13 year olds are all about having fun and playing for the love of the game.  This tournament which is held every august, in Williamsport Pennsylvania  reminds us that games are fun and pure and played for nothing but fun and pride.  There is no money involved, everyone including the umpires volunteer their time.  The kids on the teams from the United States and the World have a great time together, and will build friendships that might last a lifetime.   When you hear one of these kids interviewed their just happy to be there, they talk about how nice the stadium is and how green the grass is.  This year is especially nice because there is a team from Africa, Uganda that came from nothing to make its way here.  Little League was the springboard to the Majors for guys like Lastings Millage, Gary Sheffield, Jason Marquis, Charlie Hays and Lloyd McClendon.
