Yes. From what I have seen in the news, the game was rigged.

yep

Yes - any rule violation needs to be punished. The intent is for the kids to learn that actions have consequences.....

Absolutely. Sportsmanship is the biggest part of the game. Lying, cheating, and corruption is reserved for the Democrats.

Yes... everyone had to have known that this was going on...yes...right down to the kids. Kids are smart and they know whats up.

If this were a younger age bracket i would say no. However even though this is ultimately the coaches fault...these boys are old enough to stand up and speak out for what is right. Very very hard lesson learned.

I'd rather we focus on taking the banks away from the bankers, but whatever.

Yes. However, if people were doing their job early in the tournaments, this would have never happened. But, much like "deflated" footballs, officials didn't do their job early in the process. Feel bad for the kids though.

I watched them kids. They were stacked. Typical cheating and dishonest traits from youth to the old out of Chicago. And they spoke very gangster. Commentator's thought it was cute and showed heart.

Yes I support it. That said this type of stuff happens everyday in youth and High School sports. One need look no further than Mardela and the Girls basketball team fiasco, Mardela and the Girls softball fiasco with unmitigated transfers and illegal team practices, Fruitland soccer club runs rampant bs at crown with juggling and stacking rosters, illegal players in every division. No I don't blame the kids at all it's the adults, coaches and parents that have no clue about sportsmanship and integrity.

Yes!

But how much does it suck to be one of those kids? You had no idea your team was cheating. That's a bummer.

Same should happen to the NE Patriots!

100 percent.
Now it's time to take the Patriots Super Bowl title away for all their cheating. That's as big a joke as the little league.

That's funny about Fruitland Soccer, they actually brought kids that had not played all season to last game or two of MASL League just to make sure they got those bragging rights LOL

1146, It was a vague reference to the fact that for over 100 years, the banksters have been methodically stealing from us. A crime which is so vast as to be almost unimaginable in scope. And we do nothing about it.

We continue to elect people who write laws to allow the theft to continue to grow and have precedence to the point where it is institutionalized.

But by god, let's get all excited when someone cheats in a kids' baseball game. Let's raise some hell.

Any questions on why this country is in the shape it is in?

12:39 and 1:36 Not going to happen, as they never once cheated.

"Spygate". It was legal to video the other team, every team did it, and still does to this day. They fined them for doing it from the sideline, which is now illegal. Not cheating.

"Deflategate". 11/12 balls deflated. 10/11 were just under 12.5, due to temperture and moisture. The 1 ball that Indy went to the refs about? THEY deflated it, as per league sources. Watch INDY get fined and docked draft picks in the next month or two. Besides, with slightly deflated balls in the first half (legal) they were up 17-7. With fully inflated balls after half? 28-0.

Go back to sipping on ESPN's teat.

YES. they cheated. period.

Absolutely!

Unfortunately their adult leaders let the kids down by not observing the residency rules. Simple as that.

All the adults and kids on other teams who followed the rules were at a disadvantage....all of their opponents, all season long.

My 11 year old son wants to leave a comment. He plays baseball. This is his comment: I don't support this because if those kids sign up for another league then their reputation would affect them, and they may have known or not have known, but they have to listen and do what the coaches and parents say or they cannot play. Even if they knew it was wrong they had peer pressure to be quiet or they couldn't play.
