Andy, congratulations to your son and the whole team for a great series. We were rooting for the San Antonio team and the Reynosa, Mexico team as well and were hoping for a San Antonio-Reynosa, Mexico finals because Reynosa borders our hometown and San Antonio is four hours away. Nevertheless, I believe your the same guy that I met in San Diego, CA back in 1977 while I worked for the US Border Patrol and you for the San Diego PD. I remember getting together at the Valley Shadows Club, a COP Club, on San Ysidro Blvd many times. I saw you on television during the Little League World Series and immediately recognized you. Are you that same guy I met 32 years ago and actually became friends and hung out together? What a small world!! Anyway, all the best to you and the World Champions Chula Vista Team.

Readers of this blog/page (whatever you want to call it) should expect to hear of an "official challenge" to the championship game results of Chinese Taipei -vs- Chula Vista, CA. This writer believes that amphetamine use was engaged in by the USA team; namely Kiko Garcia. We'll see.
