  • Curacao and Hawaii played in the 2022 Little League World Series Championship Game!
    Covering sports in a unique way since 2018.
    If you’re looking for a place that can educate you with commentary on top of high quality edits, this is the place for you! I’ve covered Baseball (MLB, NCAA, LLWS), Football (NFL, NCAA), Basketball (NBA, NCAA), Hockey (NHL), Softball (NCAA), and much more!
    I make my videos on the HP Spectre x360. I use Adobe Premiere Rush to edit, which allows me to commentate and efficiently splice up clips in a high quality way.
    One of my favorite accomplishments is revolutionizing the way sports channels create thumbnails. I started making them with team logos on the left, and a game snapshot on the right, and I’ve gotten almost all of my video views with that style.
    I have a combined 4 years of experience as a Baseball & Basketball Play by Play announcer, which is where I learned my skills for commentary/breakdowns.

    Wow…not enough is said about Hawaii’s coaches. These kids approach to hitting is college level stuff. They keep it simple. Balanced, no needless movement and quick hands. Their load position is nothing more then shifting their weight. Unbelievable job by the coaches.

    Simply an amazing performance by the USA (Hawaii) Team. They dominated every game in the series. Major League Baseball (MLB) scouts should keep an eye on these boys--especially the homerun hitters and the great pitchers. There is another Shohei Ohtani-type kid who is both a homerun hitter and a great pitcher. I have no doubts that at least a half-dozen of these kids will eventually end up on MLB teams. The Los Angeles Angels should hire Hawaii's coach. He would make the Angels into a winner. Congratulations from a former Hawaii boy (born and raised in Hawaii for the first 20 years of my 80-year life thus far). Funny how it is more fun watching these Little League players than watching MLB. Shaka, brah!

      Unlikely but you never know
      The playing field gets bigger and many of these boys - puberty will treat differently, some will grow much bigger and stronger, others will not as much - genetic lottery will have more to say than early child hood resources
      My guess is most of these clubs come from upper middle class or affluent neighborhoods - the Honolulu team was no exception
      But who cares for now, I’m basking in the glory these kids have brought to our little island 🏝 you made me so proud!!

      The Honolulu boys tend to come from affluent families and go to Punahou, or Iolani, or Mid-Pac, where tuition is $28k/year. By high school they are looking at becoming doctors or investment bankers, and sports doesn't mean as much to them.

    Respect to all the Curacao players who played their hearts out till the very end. They left it all on the field and played as well as any team in the world. But I will say that their coach sold hard. From now until forever, coaches are gonna look back at this Curacao team and learn to make sure you have some sort of strategy or endgame in case you get to the finals. I get that you play to win but Burning the best pitcher in the tournament while you led by 5 in the 4th inning will go down as one of the worst coaching decisions ever made in LLWS history.
