Lacrosse

I've never seen a lacrosse game in my entire life. Until this past weekend I didn't know that this game could be so exciting. Hell, I didn't know this game existed.

Jim Brown played Lacrosse at Syracuse. He was as good at Lacrosse as he was at football. But at the time he couldn't make Lacrosse his profession. So he played in the NFL.

Navy and Syracuse played for 4 quarters. The game was intense, full of contact and drama the entire game. The game has elements of football, basketball, hockey, and soccer all rolled into one. After the sweat cleared the Orange stood alone as the Div I National Lacrosse Champions.

Football, basketball, hockey, baseball, soccer are sports people watch. If you ever have an opportunity to watch lacrosse, do it. Hopefully you'll find the game as enjoyable as I did.

Welcome to the club. Lacrosse is a great game. Pretty much everyone I've ever known who played it said it was their favorite sport. Fortunately, it's a game that's as fun to watch as it is play.

I just wish they'd put it on TV more often.

Where I am from, Lacrosse is a key aspect of society. Gotta play, play for the right pee wee team; have the right coach; play in the right prep school; on and on. Guaranteed employment as a stock broker, if you can make the varsity. If you are a solid goal scorer, or a stout defensive player, they will let you sell stocks, not bonds. Make all-american or all met, and you can pick any pretty blond for your bride. Chances are, she'll be named Muffy or Bet. Your name, of coure, will be Skip or Kit.

Nowm guess which ville I call home?

That all being said, that was a great game. Shame Cuse won, as they have the most arrogant, yet boneheaded player: the Mighty Powell. It is the best sport, and I am glad I played in high school. (NB, I sell neither stocks nor bonds and my spouse does not have a prep nickname.) Ah, it's a shame.

I was at this game and it was a great game one of the top games I have ever been at. I never played lacrosse just became a huge fan of it in college and started going to the final four and it is a great time and I did not go to a prep school.
