NHL Playoffs

When I first got to ESPN, I tried to make a big push for Lacrosse. But there just isn't enough interest beyond the college level. We're still trying to come up with a good plan for it though. All hope is not lost

It's not big enough on the national level yet. If you go anywhere on the east coast and a lot of places in Texas, you'll find lacrosse is fairly mainstream. Maryland and New York are obviously the huge lacrosse states, but by no means hold the dominance they used to have. Lacrosse has bridged out (when I was a freshman, it was only in it's third year as a program at my school in Frederick) and only has room to grow.

It's a great sport, very similar to basketball in the footwork and things of that nature.

I'm a rabid fan... and I had the opportunity to play against some really good teams (My one year at CUA I got to play against Salisbury, which was like a dream come true).. and I think the sport will emerge as a real contender to baseball in the next 10-15 years. America really just doesn't understand it yet, and by no means is ready for any kind of national exposure IMO.

In due time... In due time.

i love me some hockey. i cant imagine what those guys felt like after playing in that 4 overtime game
