11-Year Old Spouts Big League Clichés Ahead of Little League World Series

The Little League World Series is two weeks away, so the best Little League teams from around the country are currently traveling and trying to win their way into the big tournament. Bull City Little League in Durham, North Carolina won their state championship this week and have advanced to regionals. (Obligatory)

ABC 11 spoke to the team about their accomplishment. It seems 11-year old Jackson doesn’t want to give future opponents any bulletin board material.

"“We just gotta stay focused. Not let the media get to us and not try to make crazy plays.”"

Are 11-year olds self-aware enough to say that as a joke? (Quote at the 1:30 mark or embedded in the Tweet below.)
