[trenchfoot]

Just thought I'd exercise my one allotted bragging rights for this year. It's big news in Hawaii.

Hawaii beats Curacao to win fourth Little League World Series title

Hawaii got back-to-back homers in the first inning, sparking a 13-3 win in just four innings over Curacao in the championship of the Little League World Series.

What an incredibly dominating team. Hawaii crushed all opponents by a combined 60-5 score.

I watched a couple of those games. Unbelievable.

Hawaii should secede and start a bobsled team.

In the midst of Global Warming?

As Grand Moff Tarkin once said: "I think you overestimate their chaunces!"

“Feel the rhythm! Feel the rhyme! Get on up, it's bobsled time! Cool runnings!”


Absolutely loved that movie. Thanks for the memories. Hawaii has its own bobsled ride. It involves these grooves cut into a mountainside by rainfall. Soon after a rainfall hits these grooves, we would climb up to the top of these slick mud grooves, cut some large heart shaped leaf off of what we call "monkey tail" plant and use them as sleds. The ride is bumpy, fast and painful and ends in a short fall into a cold chilly pond. All the ingredients young kids would need to have a shitload of fun. The only thing you'd have to worry about are these tree roots sticking out into the groove. You wanna rip yourself a new one that's the way to do it.

It’s the Spam.

It’s the Spam.

OK, I'm gonna rat on the team by exposing the "superfood" the Hawaii kids were being fed daily while in Pennsylvania:

In lieu of steroids, it's Spam musubi, sort'a like sushi. Kids go crazy for it at potluck parties. Loads of protein and starches for energy-starved kids, completely legal in all 50 states and accepted by the Little League as a source of energy. <---(jus' kidding of course).

As some have said to those accusing Barry Bonds of taking steroids: He still had to have the awesome eyesight and ability to connect his bat with the ball.

The rational was the steroids simply increased his arm size and his strength.
