MLL Future In California?

August 6, 2012

The MLL has tried venturing into California before, but the outcome was not so successful. The San Francisco Dragons and Los Angeles Riptide joined the league in 2006, but only lasted two seasons. That has many wondering if the league will ever return to the Golden State, especially as a part of their expansion plans in the coming years. Only four MLL franchises have ever straight up folded, and they…

Lizards and Bayhawks Set for Crucial Second Meeting

August 4, 2012

The first time these two met, was the first game in 2012 for both of them. That was when Chesapeake stated they were strong and when Long Island seemed to have some trouble, even though the Lizards only lost 13-11. Now, Chesapeake is still strong and Long Island has improved tremendously. Long Island’s offense has really clicked together and plays as a team. Matt Gibson came out of nowhere and…

August 3, 2012

Yesterday news came out that the Bandits goaltender Michael Thompson would be retiring from the league after a solid seven season career in the NLL. Last season Thompson lost the starting job to acquisition Anthony Cosmo, who was franchised two days ago by the team.

MLL Unit Breakdowns: Denver @ Rochester

August 2, 2012

On paper, Denver has the upper hand. Then again, there have been a few whacky losses this season. In their first meeting, the Outlaws took home the win 16-12. Since then, both teams have matured, gelled and will play hard to win. Denver’s attack is led by Brendan Mundorf who has been hot and not at different times this season. He’s either rattled the cage or let others do the…

MLL Unit Breakdowns: Ohio @ Boston

Boston got a huge win against Chesapeake and Ohio unfortunately lost to Rochester last weekend. However, that doesn’t mean the Machine will lose to the Cannons. Ohio has the capability to come back late in games and win. They showed that they are a second half team in their game against the Rattlers last weekend. They were down 7-3 at the end of the first half and came back to…

July 30, 2012

The Olympics are in full swing in London with the best athletes in the world showing off their abilities. If you are a frequent reader of the site, at some point you probably thought about the lack of lacrosse in the Olympics. Is it realistic to think that someday it could possibly happen?
