Hey! I play lacrosse, and I know it's not as popular as other sports, so not many people know about it.
So, for CyanSliver and everyone else, here is a Wikipedia.

In short, lacrosse is played on a field a bit larger than a football field. You use a stick with a net at the top to hold a ball that is about 3 in in diameter. You can pass, dodge, whatever to get to the other teams goal, and then you'll shoot. I'm not good at explaining, the wiki is better at that. But lacrosse is played a lot like basketball, since basketball was invented by lacrosse players, and its also played like hockey, a tiny bit of soccer.

It was invented by basketball players...? Wasn't it by the indian dudes?huh.gif mellow.gif

I would think it was invented by an australian. Oh GM I'm giving awards out in 2 days. Your close to getting a cookie smile.gif

W00T!!

Smart Dawg- 10-21-2006
teh sigh.

Read it carefully. Basketball was invented by lacrosse players. You're smart.
Indians did invent lacrosse.
I don't know what austrailian your talking about.

CyanSliver- 10-21-2006
No, what I meant was that it seems that it would be invented by Australians.

Smart Dawg- 10-21-2006
What, basketball? Or lacrosse?

Anyway, top teams in world lacrosse are
1. USA, duh. We always win, except for this year when we got beaten by..
2. Canada, who had Gary Gait on their team who scored 5 goals in the chamionship game, which pretty much won them the game..
3. Japan is pretty good actually.

4-infinity. Every other country sucks balls at lacrosse.

Lacrosse is an insanely crazy sport to watch. Much more entertaining than soccer. And baseball...don't even get me started.

CyanSliver- 10-22-2006
Hmm.. maybe I should watch some Lacrosse. Damn you SD for getting me interested!! unsure.gif

Smart Dawg- 10-22-2006
Yeah, but you won't find it very easily in california, its a big east coast thing.

Baseball is too slow. Lacrosse is actually called the fas-*test*-('") game on two feet.

Lol! Seriously, I don't think he's played it. It's not brutal, rugby = brutal.

Smart Dawg- 11-06-2006
hmm. I was guarding the goalie when he had the ball. I hit him, and he dropped the ball. OPEN GOAL. I grab the ball, and go towards the net. I get killed, smashed to the shoulder from behind. ;_;

I have a bruise on my arm, it hurts like shit.
