I'm donating a dollar for every @PremierLacrosse goal scored this summer to the Sandy Hook Promise Foundation. I don't want this leaving our minds in a day like everything else. Demand better, and support people who demand better with you. PLL Players, fill up the damn nets.

So I'm done with the lacrosse media thing for a while. It's become quite clear to me that what I try to do isn't welcomed by the league office. They prefer, and even reward, coverage that is all praise all the time. That's not what I'm about. That's PR, that's not media.

The Indiana player with EMT training who treated Clemson's John Holcomb is Harris Jaffe. Harris is from Parkland, FL, and was among the organizers of the March For Our Lives, combatting gun violence in America following the MSD school shooting. This is an incredible young man.

Canada and the US should play a best of three series. A game of field, a game of box, and a game of sixes, and you have to use the same roster for all three games.

This will be one of the most incredible stories in lacrosse, or even all of sports, this spring. A Clemson player collapsed on the field and was treated by a player from Indiana's team with EMT training until an ambulance arrived. Wishing all the best to John Holcomb.
We send our deep gratitude to the Indiana player that used his EMT skills to help treat John on the field as well as the Liberty trainers on site. We will be forever grateful.

Jared Bernhardt is on the Falcons initial 53 man roster. From Tewaaraton winning attackman at Maryland, to National Championship winning QB at Ferris State, to NFL wide receiver.
Falcons have made the following moves to get down to the initial 53-man roster.

The @PremierLacrosse title game had 335k viewers and did a .26 rating. It was up against the last round of the PGA, Bruins/Capitals, Spurs/Pelicans, and Braves/Phillies. The PLL number beat the baseball game and was in the neighborhood of the NHL numbers.

If the PLL could find a way to make it work, a Labor Day title game would be so awesome. There's nobody else to go up against today. Could own a summer ending holiday with the PLL Championship.

I mostly tweet about lacrosse. But when a decision fundamentally reduces the availability of critical health care to women in America, and may also impact other marginalized groups, I'll have something to say about it. Unfollow and mute are at your disposal. I won't be hurt.

And now taking a break from lacrosse:. Six people in this country can strip away the rights of millions of women, and soon the LGBTQ community as well, despite the will of the people being the opposite. This decision will result in women dying. We are so incredibly broken.

Entenmann is a step outside the Notre Dame huddle during the timeout and basically nobody is talking to him. It's like not talking to a pitcher throwing a no hitter. He's in a different zone than the rest of us right now.

CJ Costabile of @PLLChaos had a high school senior year that is one of those things you had to see to believe. He had 63 points, including 38 goals. Faced off at 77%. He had 7 points, 3 goals and 4 assists, in the state title game for New Fairfield. He did all this with a pole.

Per the PLL, payouts for the Championship Series:. $5,000 for every player in the tournament. Then:.$10,000 bonus for each player on the winning team. $2,500 bonus for each player on the runner up. That's for both players AND coaches. That's a nice pay day.

In my mind, coming into tonight the bracket firmly had ND in it, and the last spot was between Duke and OSU. Leaving Notre Dame out is beyond explanation. There's no way anyone who's seen a game since March leaves that team out.

Pat Spencer to the Warriors. Still a ways to go to be on an NBA roster but he's gone from Tewaaraton winner at Loyola, to Northwestern hoops, to Europe, to the Wizards G-league, to Wizards Summer League, to Warriors training camp.
The Golden State Warriors have signed Pat Spencer to a non-guaranteed training camp deal, a league source tells @spotrac.

I wonder how many goalies could give the ball up to an attackman, and the attackman trusts the goalie so much that he actually gives it back.
