For those who are confused as to what they did, in little league, everybody on your team has to be part of the same "park" league meaning from the same city. This team brought in kids from other cities allowing for more talent. Which is against the rules.

Tre Merritt just because someone is white doesn't mean they haven't experienced racism. Stop thinking only colored people can experience racism. All people can experience racism.
Tre Merritt I am a small business owner with a wife and 3 small children who struggles to put food on my table. I run a small welding shop out of my house. I am white. 3 years ago my neighbor repainting baltimore city jail approached me with this scrapping job to cut up and haul off of appliances in the kitchen after a flood filled the kitchen with sewage. It was a chance to make $80,000. I said sure give my name to the head of the job at the site. He did and I got a call from the head of the demolition job( part of the prison system). He told me I could start the next week. I said sure and faxed over all my paperwork to start. Two days later I get A phone call back saying that they cannot hire me because I am not a minority contractor. So I lost an $80,000 job that would have payed off my debt because Im not black. I have experienced this 6 more times bidding on local and state government jobs and each time I lose the job as soon as they find out that Im not a minority.
buildthings79 that is a damn shame. it isn't right at all. But consider those millions of other times people have lost out on jobs BECAUSE they were black (or some kind of minority). I know it doesn't make things right or fair with you but you're not the only one who was denied because the color of your skin.
It’s a shame that mom’s & dad’s would do this. I remember watching there game, and was so happy for them. Now this, then they cry it’s because they are black. Don’t cheat no matter your color.

Jill Morrow probably, should have gotten Keanu Reeves he wouldn't cheat he even cut one of his best players after finding out he lied about his age to be able to play with his friends
@gunluvr20 It doesn't matter if cheating didn't give them a "significant" advantage. We have blatant proof that they cheated, they won the World Series while doing so.
Yes because everything is about race. Let's go straight to race instead of the irresponsibility unethical and immoral actions of adults. Do you know when the race is constantly thrown out as an excuse, it starts to become taken seriously less and less. I'm at the point myself that brings up race, I automatically start to discount anything that's being said.
'By you disregarding what we are saying, you are being racist because we're black." I don't think I could've described it better, but I feel the same way, honestly.
"This is a racially motivated witch hunt" "We know we are winners, our parents know we are winners, Chicago knows we are winners" Everyone cringed at that
Kevon Lowe Every team who wins games by that margin raises suspicion. And when you’re being celebrated outside your assigned boundaries you’re going to get investigated. Quit race baiting. It’s pathetic
Kevon Lowe Seeing as the supporters were in ANOTHER teams boundaries, and they were being supported by a group of people that are supposed to supporting another team I do believe that. Without a shadow of a doubt. Oh but they were being supported by them because they recruited suburban kids from that area even though that’s blatant cheating? Oh well that explains it, huh? You’re so pathetic bro. Quit race baiting. They are not champions. They are cheaters. And everyone who knew about the cheating but still let it happen are just as bad.
@.Oh, I'm aware of that. He also says he tries to strengthen black communities, but donates absolutely nothing to black charities, all the while living in a million dollar house.
@@kesayo Ever heard of kids who rebel? A lot of kids don't listen to their parents, sometimes I don't. They are at fault too because I'm sure there were some kids who could've easily refused and the parents wouldn't try to argue back. Everyone's family life is different so I can be right in some cases and wrong in others.
@@krebskreblin4012 Aah I'm pretty sure that they'll know about that . You do realize that they're playing the game. Once you start playing a game on a certain level. The trainers will tell you all the rules and regulations because they don't want you to do any kind of dumb stuff. So they also knew that if its a district based team that they'll need the kids from that district. If you're outsourcing the kids ....that's cheating. Why? Because if that kid were to get selected he would've played against them but he's playing for them. Now do that with alot of places and you now have the finest kids from multiple districts rather than your own. Basically you outsourced the talent....that's cheating . ..... take it like this actually this will be more easier to understand. You have an American team and to make your team overpowered you bring in the best players from all around the world whether if they're American or not because they're not Americans. They would've played for their own respective countries against American team That's cheating
This is exactly the problem I have with kids' sports. Often the adults involved take things way too seriously. It should be about teaching the children important lessons (like teamwork, friendly competition, how to win/ lose gracefully, etc.) while they have fun. Unfortunately, so many of these adults try to live vicariously through these children. They end up ruining the entire experience for the children. I have seen kids go from loving and enjoying a sport to absolutely hating it because of all the pressure being put onto them by adults. SMH
Melody Green, the Ironic thing is that the parents of that team pulled the race card, saying that it was because they WERE black that the title was stripped, not because they cheated. So in a way, dtype62's stereotypical comment actually has backbone to it
First the parents cheated not the kids (no matter what there skin looks like) I myself would not take it away from the kids L.L. Baseball has had cheaters since the beginning nice lesson the kids play the best they can and win it all but are still considered the losers Nice going When they don’t try any more at anything ask why come back here for the answer
Me and my friend could never play together we lived close to each other but on different LL districts. Everyone knows how the system works and this is blatant cheating.
Uhhh yea I'm sure there is rampant cheating with this but it becomes a problem when it's high level( relatively speaking) but also when this occurs in a city you have exponentially more kids to choose from than day a random town in Minnesota So yea they are all good players but that is the point. When you break the rules and choose the best from wherever you want you won't have a weak spot in your lineup whereas a team that follows the rules may have weak spots
I’m white and I don’t know anything about being racially profiled but when people say everything is racist just because they are effected negatively for their own actions, destroys the whole meaning behind being racially profiled!
The question is - how many other little league teams are doing this? If only a few, then yes, they are guilty. If most teams are doing this, then they are unjustly punished. That's my take. So once again, the press did a half baked story. Discrimination is when many are doing the same thing, but only one gets punished.
That's what's wrong with kids today parents teaching them wrong ad saying it's OK and to use race to help u out. bulshit show them right ad wrong stop blaming it on race
Okay, I'm not a sports fan but these kids knew exactly what they were doing even at that age they knew the rules so it wasn't just the adults cheating it was the kids cheating too!
Exactly! I really wanted to ask the boys a direct question did they aware of the situation that their team was consist of children from different city or not. It's impossible if the player did not understand the rule of the game.
The kids weren't as culpable as the adults involved, but lets not pretend that they were ignorant of the situation. When every kid on the team is from a different town but it's only your team and you're 100 times better than the competition? You'd have to be a complete and utter idiot not to notice something.
It's tiring. Regardless of race if you cheat you deserve what's coming. Blacks need to stop playing the race card for every single little thing and face reality for what it is. Not everything is racially charged!
@@torreywilliams6154 I completely agree, but a lot of what they are trying to claim is that they think they got a harsher punishment than an all-Caucasian team would have received for doing the exact same thing. Now, granted, I don't know if that's true or not (I don't pay enough attention to youth sports specifically to have anything to compare it to in order to determine whether or not certain punishments really are harsher than others).
The kids knew they were cheating. There are little league borders for where you live. These kids know where you live... Geez I know the border lines for teams a hour away.....
There's probably a few teams that do, but it's such an easy thing to fact check that there is no point doing it. Especially on the biggest stage of where you are competing. They can plead ignorance, but ignorance doesn't excuse it.
God, everyone getting so mad at that kid in the end. It's the ADULT'S fault, not the kids. I would blame the adults for A, doing this, and B, calling the race card.
They were an incredible feel good story. No doubt about it. I love seeing young black men playing baseball. So many good young black men choose hoops over baseball - and hoops is soooo tough for anyone to succeed. Black, white, asian, whatever - doesn't matter. If you cheat (and you cheat your kids by faking addresses!), you don't deserve to win. It's little league! You can't recruit outside your league's boundaries for a reason. It's not fair. Some leagues are so big, they have split their leagues so they are stuck having 2 (watered down) all-star teams... thus, never having a shot to make it to the LLWS. When parents do this crap, they screw their own kids as well as the other leagues and teams. THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO ABOUT RACE. If you think it was - you're begging for an excuse.
So no stealing signs, no over aged kids, no pitch count infractions and yall are this serious over it, smh. They literally just got kids out of their range, which is bad, but not awful or anything.
I remember watching that team throughout the tournament and those kids from Chicago absolutely dominated the other teams kids through the heart of the lineup hitting three and four home runs a game in multiple games it was insane I remember thinking these kids have to have been recruited
No one is saying they aren't talented its just because they fished out all the talented kids from other areas which is not allowed it's not because of racists.
EVERYONE is responsible, the parents, the coach and the kids ALL knew that they were cheating. When they were caught, they tried to play the RACE CARD. The race card has been played more times than a deck of playing cards in prison.
As a little league coach for 10 years I can say this. 100%, not 99%, 100% of every problem I ever had was from the adults. Now as young as 5 years old we have parents wanting that competitive edge for that trophy, championship and yes a college scholarship starting at age 5 and it gets worse every year the child ages. Think I'm kidding? Coach a little league team.
I remember watching these kids play and seeing such a difference in size, stature and talent across the lineup and saying to myself “there’s something strange going on here”. I guess I wasn’t just imagining it..
If a team from Detroit took kids from Dearborn and added them to team and beat kids from Milwaukee would Detroit lost if those kids went to that Detroit school as well
They broke the rules plain and simple. What kind of example are we setting for these young men if we dont follow the rules? Hey it's ok to cheat if you dont get caught but if you do blame someone else and call it racial bias? This is sad for these boys but the adults who perpetrated this should own up and take responsibility. Very sad.

@gunluvr20 It doesn't matter if cheating didn't give them a "significant" advantage. We have blatant proof that they cheated, they won the World Series while doing so.
Yes because everything is about race. Let's go straight to race instead of the irresponsibility unethical and immoral actions of adults. Do you know when the race is constantly thrown out as an excuse, it starts to become taken seriously less and less. I'm at the point myself that brings up race, I automatically start to discount anything that's being said.
'By you disregarding what we are saying, you are being racist because we're black."
I don't think I could've described it better, but I feel the same way, honestly.
I feel the same way.
"This is a racially motivated witch hunt"
"We know we are winners, our parents know we are winners, Chicago knows we are winners"
Everyone cringed at that
Leave the kid alone. He was influenced by adults who should know better.
This isn’t racism. This was a team who broke the rules and got punished for it. They deserved their punishment. How on earth is this racism?
since we are black, let's pull the race card. maybe that'll change their mind
Does every team get investigated after winning a championship? Doubt it.
Kevon Lowe Every team who wins games by that margin raises suspicion. And when you’re being celebrated outside your assigned boundaries you’re going to get investigated. Quit race baiting. It’s pathetic
Honey Badger a nationally televised team having supporters outside its boundaries is suspicious? You don’t even believe that lol.
Kevon Lowe Seeing as the supporters were in ANOTHER teams boundaries, and they were being supported by a group of people that are supposed to supporting another team I do believe that. Without a shadow of a doubt. Oh but they were being supported by them because they recruited suburban kids from that area even though that’s blatant cheating? Oh well that explains it, huh? You’re so pathetic bro. Quit race baiting. They are not champions. They are cheaters. And everyone who knew about the cheating but still let it happen are just as bad.
If Jesse Jackson says it's racist, then it must be racist, right? *eyeroll*
Kinda makes him sound racist
@.Oh, I'm aware of that. He also says he tries to strengthen black communities, but donates absolutely nothing to black charities, all the while living in a million dollar house.
“Apologize.” Jesse Jackson (to Randy Marsh aka Lorde)
If Jessie Jackson patronizes prostitution, should prostitution then need to be legalized?
I heard he donates "privately".
Those kids knew it too. Don’t act like they are innocent
It's doesn't matter if the kids knew it or not. Kids do what the adults say. Right or wrong. It's the adult's fault.
@@kesayo Since when do kids do what adults say?
@@kesayo Ever heard of kids who rebel? A lot of kids don't listen to their parents, sometimes I don't. They are at fault too because I'm sure there were some kids who could've easily refused and the parents wouldn't try to argue back.
Everyone's family life is different so I can be right in some cases and wrong in others.
@@aiiello bruh there’s no way the kids know anything about district maps or any of that, what on earth are you talking about??
@@krebskreblin4012 Aah I'm pretty sure that they'll know about that .
You do realize that they're playing the game. Once you start playing a game on a certain level. The trainers will tell you all the rules and regulations because they don't want you to do any kind of dumb stuff.
So they also knew that if its a district based team that they'll need the kids from that district. If you're outsourcing the kids ....that's cheating.
Why?
Because if that kid were to get selected he would've played against them but he's playing for them.
Now do that with alot of places and you now have the finest kids from multiple districts rather than your own. Basically you outsourced the talent....that's cheating . ..... take it like this actually this will be more easier to understand.
You have an American team and to make your team overpowered you bring in the best players from all around the world whether if they're American or not because they're not Americans. They would've played for their own respective countries against American team
That's cheating
This is exactly the problem I have with kids' sports. Often the adults involved take things way too seriously. It should be about teaching the children important lessons (like teamwork, friendly competition, how to win/ lose gracefully, etc.) while they have fun. Unfortunately, so many of these adults try to live vicariously through these children. They end up ruining the entire experience for the children. I have seen kids go from loving and enjoying a sport to absolutely hating it because of all the pressure being put onto them by adults. SMH
they did teach the children something. If you're not cheating, you're not trying!!!
So you think adult who put in the time to see their kids make a run to the regionals shouldn’t be upset their kids lost to cheaters?
“THEYRE ONLY SAYING WE CHEATED BECAUSE WE’RE BLACK!!”
Tom Brady: YEAH!
EDIT: Brady is the GOAT btw
Why where they heros?
BECAUSE THEY'RE BLACK.
Lmao
Billy Bellichick: You’re only pushing deflate gate because I’m African American!
@@clearsightnt_animations776 I was saying they got portrayed as heros..
Ok that was funny
So sad that the Jackie Robinson team to honor such a great baseball player only to disgrace him.
Not just the parents. The kids knew it was illegal to.
If they were white, mexican,Mexican, or any race they wouldn't be sticking up for them
Absolutely appalling that they refuse to accept that cheating means they ARE NOT champions.
jay west yes it was straight up cheating but let’s not blame the kids for it
dtype62 nice bait
Melody Green, the Ironic thing is that the parents of that team pulled the race card, saying that it was because they WERE black that the title was stripped, not because they cheated.
So in a way, dtype62's stereotypical comment actually has backbone to it
First the parents cheated not the kids (no matter what there skin looks like) I myself would not take it away from the kids L.L. Baseball has had cheaters since the beginning nice lesson the kids play the best they can and win it all but are still considered the losers Nice going When they don’t try any more at anything ask why come back here for the answer
jay west black people can't do anything wrong. You should know this by now lol
Me and my friend could never play together we lived close to each other but on different LL districts. Everyone knows how the system works and this is blatant cheating.
Jelly Fam you may not know the rules, but their coaches do and they knew exactly what they were doing.
English teachers would be like
*It’s my friend and I*
Uhhh yea I'm sure there is rampant cheating with this but it becomes a problem when it's high level( relatively speaking) but also when this occurs in a city you have exponentially more kids to choose from than day a random town in Minnesota
So yea they are all good players but that is the point. When you break the rules and choose the best from wherever you want you won't have a weak spot in your lineup whereas a team that follows the rules may have weak spots
@@bobbyward2440 sorry I'm not from the US I dont understand this rule. Can they only play for the team in their district is it?
@@RyAn-sj7ck yes if a player is out of their district they can’t play for the team. They can only play for the team if they’re in the district.
Why punish the kids though, no punishment for the adults? The kids shouldn't be affected, it's little league for Christ's sake.
If you ain’t cheating, you ain’t trying!
“i know we’re champions” lmao no? you cheated?
I don’t think that the little kid had much say in the matter, he may of had no idea what was going on. It’s the adults to blame
The Black Sox scandle of lil league. Shame on the coaches n every kid that knew. Only a fatherless Democrat plantation culture could be so cold.
@@andrewpitts955 Any of the kids that knew are tattooed for life with shame. Japan team would never do it.

+Asvp Vinoo fr lol
Ummmmm...what?
+Savage Playz hahaha black people blame everyone else for thier problems stfu
I’m white and I don’t know anything about being racially profiled but when people say everything is racist just because they are effected negatively for their own actions, destroys the whole meaning behind being racially profiled!
The question is - how many other little league teams are doing this? If only a few, then yes, they are guilty. If most teams are doing this, then they are unjustly punished. That's my take. So once again, the press did a half baked story.
Discrimination is when many are doing the same thing, but only one gets punished.
Good point.
When you cheat you're not champions, you're cheaters!!!
Khawk12092 not like they use high schoolers they should of enter travel baseball.. llws got dumb rules
Or your just salty asf

If Obama had sons.
Khawk idiot did they cheat on the field?
The kids weren't innocent they KNEW THEY WERE CHEATING TOO.
R Kurtz maybe their minds were erased before hand and were implanted that they played for that team you dont know that they cheated too
They knew they were TOO OLD and not from that area
2A Forever they weren’t too old
That's what's wrong with kids today parents teaching them wrong ad saying it's OK and to use race to help u out. bulshit show them right ad wrong stop blaming it on race
Yo I still don’t know what they did
Anytime someone says they are a victim of a witch hunt, they're guilty af

He's got a six deck shoe full

But ur still a racist so???
He and Farrakhan own the factory.
That kid doesn't know what he is talking about. He thinks that he can get away with cheating by pulling the race card. SMH
Wes Atkinson the kid didn’t pull the race card the adults did
A Random Giraffe And the adults are worse for using the kid who doesn't know what he is talking about.
Peter Parker true
Wes Atkinson they’re from Chicago.
The kids didn't even know about this this was completely the adults fault
Okay, I'm not a sports fan but these kids knew exactly what they were doing even at that age they knew the rules so it wasn't just the adults cheating it was the kids cheating too!
Exactly! I really wanted to ask the boys a direct question did they aware of the situation that their team was consist of children from different city or not. It's impossible if the player did not understand the rule of the game.
There is literally nothing involving kids that adults won’t utterly ruin!
Just go on playing that race card...personal responsibility be damned!
I'm black and I don't feel sorry for them cheating ass parents.
Jon Tesfay tell my father and mother that
The priest was going along with this bull crap. Shameful
The kids weren't as culpable as the adults involved, but lets not pretend that they were ignorant of the situation. When every kid on the team is from a different town but it's only your team and you're 100 times better than the competition? You'd have to be a complete and utter idiot not to notice something.
*Blacks called out for cheating*
*Blacks: That's raaaaaaciiiiisssst*
It's tiring. Regardless of race if you cheat you deserve what's coming. Blacks need to stop playing the race card for every single little thing and face reality for what it is. Not everything is racially charged!
Jackie Robinson would have never wanted this.
TW Music I’m black and I get sick of it
Colin Decker it sucks and it’s unfair but it is what it is
@@torreywilliams6154 I completely agree, but a lot of what they are trying to claim is that they think they got a harsher punishment than an all-Caucasian team would have received for doing the exact same thing. Now, granted, I don't know if that's true or not (I don't pay enough attention to youth sports specifically to have anything to compare it to in order to determine whether or not certain punishments really are harsher than others).
The kids knew they were cheating. There are little league borders for where you live. These kids know where you live... Geez I know the border lines for teams a hour away.....
Braydon Miller I'm pretty sure half of these teams do this
Rick... Pretty sure you are wrong.
There's probably a few teams that do, but it's such an easy thing to fact check that there is no point doing it. Especially on the biggest stage of where you are competing. They can plead ignorance, but ignorance doesn't excuse it.
Brandon will make a great black politician someday. Blame everyone else, but those at fault.
I feel sorry for the kid that’s forced to say that by their parents

I Hate cheater's of All color's! Anything involving Jesse " The Hustler" Jackson is bound to be crooked! Too bad for the kid's tho😒😒😒
Ah, you caught me cheating. You just activated my race card.
they cheated "its racially motivated" no, you cheated. LOL
They were an incredible feel good story. No doubt about it. I love seeing young black men playing baseball. So many good young black men choose hoops over baseball - and hoops is soooo tough for anyone to succeed. Black, white, asian, whatever - doesn't matter. If you cheat (and you cheat your kids by faking addresses!), you don't deserve to win. It's little league! You can't recruit outside your league's boundaries for a reason. It's not fair. Some leagues are so big, they have split their leagues so they are stuck having 2 (watered down) all-star teams... thus, never having a shot to make it to the LLWS. When parents do this crap, they screw their own kids as well as the other leagues and teams. THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO ABOUT RACE. If you think it was - you're begging for an excuse.
T Sprockett so you only like seeing young black men play basketball instead of baseball other races can't do it?
kjswazy when did he say that?
kjswazy learn to read.
so what if we choose hoops? is what an individual loves, i don't even know why u added that in ur comment
Kyle Kuzma ROTY
Because it's his opinion.
I met these guys, they visited us in Chicago. They were super nice.
So no stealing signs, no over aged kids, no pitch count infractions and yall are this serious over it, smh. They literally just got kids out of their range, which is bad, but not awful or anything.
I remember watching that team throughout the tournament and those kids from Chicago absolutely dominated the other teams kids through the heart of the lineup hitting three and four home runs a game in multiple games it was insane I remember thinking these kids have to have been recruited
It wasn’t racism it was improper zoning race had nothing to do with it
Someone in Chicago cheated and lied about something? Who ever heard of such?
No one is saying they aren't talented its just because they fished out all the talented kids from other areas which is not allowed it's not because of racists.
“Character, courage, loyalty “ is the the motto of the league. Unfortunately the “adults” fail at instilling good character into these kids.
Team Moto:
Character, Courage, -Loyalty- No Snitching Yo!
EVERYONE is responsible, the parents, the coach and the kids ALL knew that they were cheating. When they were caught, they tried to play the RACE CARD. The race card has been played more times than a deck of playing cards in prison.
On the kids uniform sleeve it has little league Logo and say I will not cheat
They don't deserve to be called Jackie Robinson
As a little league coach for 10 years I can say this. 100%, not 99%, 100% of every problem I ever had was from the adults. Now as young as 5 years old we have parents wanting that competitive edge for that trophy, championship and yes a college scholarship starting at age 5 and it gets worse every year the child ages. Think I'm kidding? Coach a little league team.
They did cheat by violating the residency rules. The Houston Astros would be proud
I remember watching these kids play and seeing such a difference in size, stature and talent across the lineup and saying to myself “there’s something strange going on here”. I guess I wasn’t just imagining it..
Coached L.L. for over 20 yrs...They knew that they took kids from outside there zone...they were hoping to not get caught...period
If a team from Detroit took kids from Dearborn and added them to team and beat kids from Milwaukee would Detroit lost if those kids went to that Detroit school as well
The kids in this team are dishonest and can't even own up to it. Parents are doing such a great job.
Lol they couldn't have an all black team win. Looks bad on the white man.
I guess having an all black team cheat looks good on the black man though🤣🤣🤣
They broke the rules plain and simple. What kind of example are we setting for these young men if we dont follow the rules? Hey it's ok to cheat if you dont get caught but if you do blame someone else and call it racial bias? This is sad for these boys but the adults who perpetrated this should own up and take responsibility. Very sad.
