Not Good For The Little League

The Little League World Series has become a popular sport around this time of the year. It gets talked about, and seeing it on T.V. is expected by all.
Competition, that's what it's all about.
Winning the Little League World Series finals, that's what every kids dream of, besides making to the Major Leagues.
Many enjoy seeing these young children, and parents love watching their little children compete for one of the biggest achievements for children that are their age.
Cheering them on, seeing little children compete like no other.
Some people would say it's amazing seeing this children do something they love, it keeps them out of trouble and makes it easy for them to set dreams, and goals for their life. The view becomes clear for them in the future. Much more joy in their life then others.
The Little League World Series is getting serious, because it's getting closer and closer to what team is the strongest, most talented, and most of all the best.
This has been apart of television for a while, around this year people get ready to watch the Little League World Series. For them it's entertaining, and it gets more attention then some professional sports as well.
The Little World Series has done a good job drawing a huge audience to their sport, but personally, I think it's a bad thing.
These children shouldn't be gaining exposure to big name channels, and receiving a huge amount of attention at the their age. Some people might say it's good, but it sends a wrong message to children.
Being invited to the ESPY Awards a couple of years ago, and being televised on ESPN where everyone around the world is taking about these children.
They are going to get the wrong mind set, that they are stars.
Why is this on television? It's just little children playing baseball with teams across the world. I understand it's a big league, but these children shouldn't be on ESPN, ESPN 2, and others. That's to much for these children, seeing high lights of themselves on ESPN, it's just a bad message for them.
Were treating these children like their stars, and that's not good.
They probably have that mind set already, the way their getting all this attention.
This league is getting more attention than what it should be getting. We shouldn't be seeing these children on these big name channels, it brings to much pressure. Those young children shouldn't be receiving that much pressure at a young age.
Seeing them cry when they lose, and having to go home and see your team lose the most important game of their life. Being written about in the newspaper like their stars.
What's wrong with just having the Little League World Series on a local channel or a non-big name channel, like some high school games. It will be much better, because they wouldn't be receiving much pressure, and it will keep these young children humbled.
Seeing themselves on ESPN, and having the media asking them questions after the game. This could change these children attitude, and that wouldn't be good.
It's almost like when high school athletes get to much attention, because of their talent. Many think that can hurt them, having them thinking their the best. Then a lack of practice comes into play, and their level of skill starts to fall. It's the same thing with the Little League World Series, but they are receiving more exposure than high school athletes.
