We're two summers away from a Little League World Series with players potentially born in the 21st century. If that doesn't make you feel old, nothing will.
Watching the action from Williamsport this year, it's tough not to feel a little nostalgic for days of yore. These kids aren't exactly living the life many of us lived -- they can hit a curveball, after all -- but who didn't dream about playing in such a puissant event? Well, for starters, maybe those kids who were busy dreaming about spelling puissant.
While we wait for the first crossover star to win both the Little League World Series and the Scripps National Spelling Bee, we wonder if even in your supposed maturity, you'd pick Williamsport over Washington, D.C., if given a chance?
- SportsNation Flashback: Take the SN Spelling Bee quiz
“Go Chula Vista Park View!!! San Diego is proud and rootin' all of you on!! Bring home the hardware and show 'em that the kids can play some baseball in San Diego.
