Yea, Lacrosse is getting bigger in the USA, but it's like Soccer, getting bigger but not really all that huge.

It is bigger, but lacrosse has existed longer, and was named the official sport of Canada a loooong time ago. At some point, I think the good old hockey game was named official winter sport of Canada, but yea. I was fucking sooo-prised when I heard about lax.

I've seen some college lacrosse on TV, pretty epic game actually and no wonder people are starting to get into it more.


I'd play it also if I didn't want to play hockey more.

College lacrosse is actually a different animal - the NCAA game is field lacrosse, whereas the more popular of the two pro leagues plays box (indoor) lacrosse.

Got it.

I'm not into lacrosse but still looks fun to play, but tough game for sure.

Outdoor lacrosse would have a bigger field then?

Yea, also have different positions - in field, there is no transition man but there is a midfielder.

For the joke of a station that they are, I guess the rest of the country must suck more?
