(CBS) The Little League World Series journey came to an end last night for the Cumberland, R.I., squad when it fell 8-7 to the Jackie Robinson West team from Chicago.

Afterward, Rhode Island coach David Belisle delivered a heartfelt speech that has taken the Internet by storm. While admitting he thoroughly respected and enjoyed the speech, 670 The Score's Dan Bernstein said he hopes the speech is the norm and not the exception among coaches in a world in which youth sports are taken as seriously as ever.
