Evil Empire

My grandson plays for the Berryhill Chiefs in under 10 years old baseball league.  Yes, I know it is probably not good that the  team has a negative Native American team name. They got it from the School of the same name.  The thing is they were playing a team from my city whose name was the "Evil Empire" and their shirts were emblazoned with King Cobra heads and their helmets had a skull and crossbones!  Under 10 little leagues

The Evil Empire won but later in the day the two teams seemed destined to play again in the championship game of they tournament. I guess there is a rule concerning how many pitches a little league pitcher can throw.  The Chiefs won their last game 8-2, but the Evil Empire saw that our pitcher had thrown 1pitch more than allowed.  The Chiefs had to forfeit the game and could not play the Championship game.

"Evil Empire" seems very fitting.  


The day played out like American History!
