Is ESPN exploiting kids with excessive LLWS coverage? (poll)

You tell me.

I could go on and on about how it's just plain wrong for ESPN to be televising the entire Little League World Series.  Or any of it, for that matter. These are 11 and 12-year-old kids, for crying out loud.

"Aren't we exploiting the trials and tribulations of children?" asks Dr. Richard Ginsburg, a Massachusetts physchologist.

"I have a hard time watching 11 and 12 year-old boys playing baseball on national television. In fact, I just change the channel. Don't get me wrong. I love the kids, but are they ready for that kind of exposure? Aren't we exploiting the trials and tribulations of children for adult entertainment?

"I'd prefer to see the Little League World Series to continue to occur but off the television and out of the papers. These boys are only kids. Let them experience the highs and lows, the camaraderie, the joy of the game on a smaller scale that they can manage. Let their families and friends attend the games and have a nice, small ceremony afterward that honors both teams. Let's find other ways to entertain ourselves as adults."

Couldn't agree more. But what do you think?
