hockey and lacrosse own all, especially lacrosse heres a lacrosse pic for all who dont know what it is [img]http://carrierdome.syr.edu/Images/lacrosse%20in%20dome.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.inform.umd.edu/News/Diamondback/01-04-23/menlax.jpg[/img]god i love lax. (lax = lacrosse) the longer sticks (the right pic) are defencemen, they use longer sticks so they can keep the attackers out far
