Semifinals are completed:
California beats Florida
Japan humiliates Canada
Curaçao stomps Guam
and my boys from Ewa Beach, Hawaii snuck past Louisiana 2-0.
Quick notes:
* Curaçao, in addition to being the defending champs, is the only team that has the "ç" with a funny beard-like thing on it. I believe the technical term for it is a wattle.
* Both international games finished by mercy rule (10-run) in the fifth. I saw the end of the Curaçao game. When Guam was pitching and down 10, the ump was calling anything that the catcher could get his mitt on a strike just to try and end the game before the kids started crying.
* Hawaii and California are meeting in the final. California represents the West. So what region is Hawaii? Northwest, of course.
* Watching Hawaii is like traveling through time. The coach and at least one player is sporting a mullet. The decisive home run in the last game started a chant in the crowd of "Whoop there it is!" Ah yes, these are my people.

I don't know what I would have done without that update. I just hope that those filthy Hawaiians don't shave points like they shave ice, no matter how tasty "shave point" might be.
Pass the poi.
Mahalo.
oh those crazy kids and their baseball, cosmic bowling and complicated shoes...
alas, to be young again.
i actually watched a bit of the cali-fl game. those 12 year olds look older than me.
No, they're all 12. It's just that with all the horse steroids they look a little older.
Pass the steroids infused poi.
Mahalo
