Anybody play or watch sports? Which ones?
My indoor soccer season finished a month ago, and now I'm starting lacrosse. Going from what people here in NA think is not a rough sport (I think it is, I once absolutly pulverized somebody and didn't even get a foul) to an absolutly rough sport lol. Well... I'm a goaltender. Though goalies still can get into the rough business. Also, my most favourite sport is hockey, and I'm watching it right now (GO FLAMES GO!!!). Though it;s too expensive to play. Watching is A LOT cheaper lol.
So, anybody like sports? Cause I absoltuly love them. I'm a really well-rounded guy. I play videogames and I play sports. |

| I like some sports and may I ask what lacrosse is ?? Is it that game where you get slings and you throw balls or something?? But I dont like watching sports but I like playing them. And I live in the country so no one is around me. Nothing to do but watch tv and play video games. Except if you want to play by yourself and I definetly don't because I need someone to paly with. |

Lacrosse is
| Quote: | Lacrosse is a fast-paced team sport played by two teams of ten players (men) or twelve players (women), each of whom use netted sticks (called the crosse) in order to pass and catch a rubber ball with the aim of scoring goals by projecting the ball into the opponent's goal.
Popular mostly in North America, lacrosse is the continent's oldest sport and the fastest growing sport at all levels – youth, high school, college, and professional. Lacrosse is especially popular in the northeastern part of the US and is Canada's national summer sport. It is expanding westward, with burgeoning lacrosse communities in Colorado, California, Oregon, Florida, Tennessee, and Texas.
In its modern form, men's lacrosse is played on a field of grass or artificial turf. Each team is composed of three attackmen, three midfielders, three defensemen, and one goaltender. In men's lacrosse, players wear protective equipment on their heads, shoulders, and hands as body-checking is an integral part of the game. Women's lacrosse is played in a similar manner except with two additional midfielders per team. Players of women's lacrosse need only wear protective eyewear (except for the goaltender, who wears a mask) as contact is not permitted apart from minor stick-checks.
The sport was invented by Native North Americans. Its name was dehuntshigwa'es in Onondaga ("men hit a rounded object"), da-nah-wah'uwsdi in Eastern Cherokee ("little war"), Tewaarathon in Mohawk language ("little brother of war"), and baaga'adowe in Ojibwe "bump hips". Since there was only one ball, early players concentrated on first injuring their opponents with their sticks, and then moving easily to the goal. Sometimes games lasted for days, and often players were gravely injured or even killed. Early balls were made out of deerskin, clay, stone, and sometimes wood. Lacrosse has played a significant role in the community and religious life of tribes across the continent for many years. Early Lacrosse was characterized by deep spiritual involvement, befitting the spirit of combat in which it was undertaken. Those who took part did so in the role of warriors, with the goal of bringing glory and honor to themselves and their tribes. |
