    It ended in a pickle but they are heading to the big one!

    Stupid question:
    Does the US automatically qualify to be one of the teams in the little league world series?

    There are 16 teams in the LLWS. 8 from the U.S. and 8 international that play in separate brackets. The U.S. champion plays the international champion in the finale.

    I won’t be watching the game today—because it’s been rescheduled to tomorrow at 11:00 AM, rain delay.

    Game on! Last game was more exciting than the last Padre game I went to. Hopefully they will win.

    Update 14-0 for Bonita, but the DOW is down over 400 points! Good thing I’m out, now question is when to get back in?

    My kids played for Bonita Valley little league for many years. One played up to about age 14. Have lots of memories watching those games!

    I cost-average it. For every percentage point the market dropped, I move 5% of my $ back in.

    Yes that makes sense. With my 401k though they only allow movement once every 60 days, that’s with Vanguard.

    There’s ways around that. Buy investor shares instead of admiral. And then convert investor to admiral. Buy like holdings. Or just buy etfs.

    Game on! Got my carne asada chips and beer in ice cold mug. Great game down to the end, but this is the end of the road for Bonita, they lost 9-7 in extended play.
