Recently i have suffered a loss of my favorite lacrosse stick here is a short history of it june 2007-i bought a 10degree 7050 crankshaft for half the price at hopkins camp-later that week a towson (college) lax player offers me a brand spanking new k18 head for the shaft so i take it- a month later i get around to stringing it so i decide to go fancy and strung it traditional-one of the leather theathers was cut-march 1st i pay laxworld to string it regularly- i play with it through outthe season until 3 weeks ago i was playing catch in a line drill for cockeysville rec and somebody(MIKE D'AMELIO) throws me a rough pass i catch it and the stop of the stick snaps-i fixed it and keep blaming our sp defensemen Will p. for braking because he spazzis out and then i vow to never buy another expensive stx lax head.

Fan Nation should do this because there are many lacrosse fans who pay attention to MLL NLL D1 D2 D3 Juco Highschool lacrosse they should have this so i don't have to post every single thing under general sports I know lax isn't a major sport but this sport is truley the most american sport there is it was made in america by native Americans and I think that America's pastime shouldn't be baseball it should be lacrosse the fastest sport on two feet and the 2nd fastest growing sport in the u.s.

I really hate ticket brokerers they are the people who come up with computer programs to block people who are actually gonna watch the events computers so they can buyout all the best seats and make the ticket price go up 5 times with out ticket brokerers I would be going to so many more sports events. I REALLY HOPE THAT THEY OUTLAW THEM IN THE OTHER 40 STATES THAT ALLOW THEM these people don't even watch the games they just make it so you have to be on ticketmaster with in 1 minuite of the tickets going on sale please comment if you hate them like them or are one of them

Concussions Part 1 (featuring Alec White)
Behind The Back Lax :: about 1 month ago :: 82 views

tow weeks ago i boxed out this kid in lacrosse going to get the ground ball and he charges me and goes helmet to helmet and i am sitting there ( more like lying down) on the ground knocked out because a kid playing lacrosse doesn't know the effects helmet to helmet have on people. I was told the hit wasn't that bad but i did have to be rushed to JHU E.R. with a mild concussion. Trust me this kid's hit wasn't the hardest i've been hit because I go flying through the air every other game I think that i was hit hard the day before just not hard enough to realize how confussed i was from the hit that this minor head to head got me I mild concussion I was told that the kid later got a 3 miniute penalty for the illegal hit but I don't think that is enough I think any one who intentionally goes head to head in a lax game should be thrown out of the game and have a 2 minuite man down penalty and if the person knocks me in the head with their stick and it is a hard enough hit they should get a tree miniute penalty. part two coming next week keep reading my blogs
