Title: Canada's game, Lacrosse!
Post by: Fr0z3N on July 17, 2004, 03:24 PM
Who plays it? Do you like it?

I play, it's my favourite sport because I am the biggest and the best. Today we won the championship game.  :)

I don't play it, I don't like it.
Play Hockey instead. That's Canada's sport.

Lacrosse is pretty sweet, I wouldn't call it Canada's game though.

Biggest and Best eh? Let's see some pictures!

It IS Canada's official game, or national game, or something.  God knows why..

It is Canada's national game. It was invented by some indians along time ago. I do play hockey but I love lacrosse, total domination.

You should see the little people who play lacrosse.
I estimate their sizes at approx. 4' - 5' maybe 5'5

Personally, I really hate Lacrosse, it shouldn't be Canadas national sport. Hockey should be Canadas national sport.

Personally, I think canada shouldn't have a national sport. Why? Because it's stupid! Just like down here in the states every state has a state bird and a state flower and shit like that. Why?! It's fucking stupid.

We had a kid entering 8th grade here at the highschool I went to, I believe his current stats are about 5'9 - 6'0 and hes around 175-180LBS the kids a monster, it was funny watching him play some type of running back position during football season, he'd just sprint through a gap and it'd take like 4 opposing players to even get him low enough to stumble across the ground.

Jealous?  

Does the USA have a national sport?

I think it's baseball isn't it? College/Allstar football seems pretty popular too.

Yes, Baseball.  It is the only sport given an exemption to the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, and purposefully allowed to be a monopoly.

I haven't even ever seen a lacrosse game. Why's it suck?

It doesn't, Akamas is just "opinionated". It's like a mix of hockey and football I guess.
Title: Re:Canada's game, Lacrosse!

I've seen a couple of pictures. Is it a little baseball like too? Anyone know any good websites?

From what I understand, it's alot like hockey but you run on a grass field with less equipment and try to "stradle" the ball in your stick.

Heh lacrosse. I'm such a tard I was thinking cricket. It's pretty much field hockey huh. Seems like it kinda fits as a good sport for Canada. Hockey for winter, lacrosse for summer.

That's called field lacrosse. I play indoor which you run on a hockey rink with no ice and you cradle the ball.

I was refering to the professional league, from what I've seen on TV (not 100% sure though, you probably know more).
