Toronto's Dispersal Strategy
The profession of sports general manager is tough. I've never held the position but as an opinionated sports fan, I know how we treat GMs. When the team struggles, they're always at fault for not building a winner. When they win, the coach did an excellent job. Add to entry drafts, summer scouting...

Major League Lacrosse Playoff Preview: Chesapeake Bayhawks
The Bayhawks will face off against the Cannons for a chance to play in the MLL championship game. Last season the underdog Bayhawks were able to defeat Boston to move on to the finals, and they look to do so again. The Bayhawks finished with the fourth seed for the second season in a row after...

Crotty Creates Chances, Rattlers Really Rolling
BREAKING NEWS! Rochester Rattlers win their second straight game. In other news, Saturday was not April Fools day, so you know that this actually happened. At the mid point of the season, I predicted that the Rattlers would finish with a 4-8 record. With two wins over the powerful Denver Outlaws,...
Losston Cannons
Well, Boston had another chance to clinch a playoff spot and they failed. As of right now, I would say that their best shot is for Denver and Chesapeake to continue losing and to wait for the season to end. Their defense seemed shaky in the first quarter by falling behind 3-0 to the Nationals. They...
Cannons Fire Blank Shot, Get Licked by Lizards
Editor's note: They did not get licked, Boston lost 12-11, it just made a better title. This game was definitely full of scoring streaks. Boston started off with 5 goals, that was followed by 4 Long Island goals (one 2 pointer), then 4 Boston (one 2 pointer), 6 Long Island, and then a final Boston...
