Gender:  Posts: 8,584 Thanks: 633 Thanked 471 Times in 311 Posts   | I know you like to rail on me for liking lacrosse, but I like it and the NC is here So who do you think will win (I was an idiot and forgot to post a poll). Syracuse and UVA play tomorrow afternoon (ESPN2), followed by Hopkins and Duke (ESPN). The winners play on Monday. I hope Cuse wins and shuts Duke up. -CSM |

What's to stop a team from getting one goal, and then simply holding onto it for the rest of the game? Is there a shot clock? Go Hopkins I guess.-jay |

Instead, they have a rule where you can't hold the ball outside the restraining box for more than 10 seconds, and it's very easy to lose the ball inside the restraining box because that's where defenders play very close. And most teams will never be satisfied with a 1 goal lead. Also, there's a rule where at the 2 minute warning of each half, the team with the lead has to keep the ball inside the restraining box PERMANELTY. This has changed the outcome of games. -CSM |

All NASCRAP drivers do is go around in circles. There aren't even any teams, it's just a driver, and a bunch of people who refuel his car or get him a new tire when he needs one. In NASCAR, the only team is the driver and his brain, nothing else. Oh, and NASCAR (As well as other "Racing sports") aren't even sports. Those who participate in them waste no energy whatsoever, they just waste some time away. Also, don't call anyone names like "Clod". You'll regret it deeply, escpecially in this forum. | |

| Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Booyaville (yeah!) Gender: Posts: 8,584 Thanks: 633 Thanked 471 Times in 311 Posts | Nascar is the only racing leaguethat sucks. Things like F-1 and drag I have no problem with (or anything that has a varied course and doesn't use leaded fuel). Even the Indy 500 is legit. And once the NHL starts being aired regularly (ie 2 games a week on ESPN or ESPN2) I'll stop this beef. Also, this guy seems like a troll considering his post in another topic praised a troll, so ignore him guys. I wouldn't put Lax on the level of these other sports yet, but don't count it as obscure because it does have a large fanbase. 48K tickets sold to the championships don't lie, and from what I hear attendance at regular season lacrosse games is about the same as attendance at PINGball games. And you guys missed some GREAT games today. Syracuse rallied from a 5 goal deficit in the third quarter to win in double overtime against UVA, and Hopkins beat the very heavily favored Duke in a close one. The title game is on Monday and I'd like it if you at least try watching it. Those who get into it can't stop watching. -CSM |

at least you have a little sensibility in that you're just not a fan of NASCAR instead of bagging racing as a whole with no plausible logic gj also a suggestion for improving your posting style please never use one of your gay nicknames again and you'll be one step closer to becoming a half decent poster thanks | |

| Cooler than you and you ****ing know it.  | I don't like Nascar because it's boring to watch unless somebody crashes. |

Still happens though. It's also cool when (Albeit rarely) one driver attacks another one. Alright, that almost never happens in NASCAR, but I've seen it happen. |

Gender: Posts: 8,584 Thanks: 633 Thanked 471 Times in 311 Posts | This is why I like lacrosse and hockey because you get to see big clock hits or fights way more often and they're more entertaining. If you were lucky to catch one of the Rangers-Devils NHL games you'll see what I mean. And if you watched the lacrosse yesterday you saw some VERY nasty hits. -CSM |

Hell, they give harder hits than most other teams/players in all sports. |

The only difference between football and those sports is you can use your hands. Lurch, have you even seen a lacrosse game (question mark) -CSM |

| What's this what's this a trick with a twist?  Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: Shhhh, it's a secret right now Gender: Posts: 13,619 Thanks: 1,146 Thanked 757 Times in 438 Posts    | I've learned recently there's a lot more to NASCAR than just going in circles, a lot of physics and **** involved in that. Never got into Lacrosse, never even heard of it until I moved to Tennessee back in 03/04. NBA has began to bore me, luckily UAB revived any bit of me that was still a b-ball fan. Football is still my ****, period. Falcons always, we wear the jerseys even if we never win a game. Which is often. |
