How do ya'll feel about it? And is it pretty big to you people in high school? I live by the beach in Florida and they got a team like two years ago. Ipersonally can't stand lacrosse, hockey or whatever and i'm really annoyed at how quick it's caught on at my school. They're gettin treatedlike us football/basketball/any REAL sport people watch players, but it seems to me like they're just the unathletic kids who want to be on a team. AND Ihate hearin em talk about " oh man I just got that new such and such stick today"... is anyone with me on this, am I just being a hater, or haslacrosse never even been around your school and you have no clue what i'm talking about.

You're being a hater.

If the lacrosse team at your school is a bunch of unathletic kids, then your lacrosse team sucks.

I live in Maryland, and lacrosse is huge in the Northeast especially amongs the upper crust i.e. boarding schools and the Ivy League.

Other than that, though, I don't think people are really on it outside of the Northeast down to Virginia.

I used to play it, and it IS a real sport. It's very physical and you need to have good coordination. Plus it's mad fun, so I suggest you get alacrosse stick and a ball (which is very heavy compared to the balls of other sports) and toss it around with the unathletic kids. You'll be hooked just onthe motions of cradling, passing, and shooting.

Lacrosse is huge in the Northeast specifically Central New York and Long Island. My school has won the national championship back to back so school spirit forLAX is at a high right now. The only thing I don't like is that it is very expensive to play. Why would you be annoyed that its catching on? Any publicityfor the sport is great.

and yeah btw i completely understand how big it is up north. I'm not even hating on that- I completely understand that and hockey are where its at upthere, but understand I live in Florida. plus it's not even an actual sport listed in athletics, it's just a club sport

I think it's pure athletics, rather than skill. You give Reggie Bush a lax stick and a few weeks of training, let him learn cradling etc, and he'll bethe most prolific scorer in the history of the sport. It's a very interesting sport to watch live, as well.

You're silly. Lacrosse takes a lot of fitness and athletic skill.

I'm surprised they play it in Florida though. It's mostly a north/northeast thing.
