  1. You are correct. The best PLL players don’t make more than 40-50K per season. Some of the best, however, make well north of a million per year when you include their endorsement deals, summer camp tours, and merchandising/apparel lines. Paul Rabil had a million dollar endorsement deal with Adidas well before he even left the MLL to create the PLL with his brother. Lyle Thompson has a very substantial endorsement deal with Nike, and he (along with his brothers/cousins) owns a very lucrative apparel company. These are just a couple examples. Judging a sport based on how much money the athletes earn is kind of foolish though. Don’t you think? There are a lot of sports I love where the athletes don’t make a lot of money and play mostly for the love of the sport.
  2. He’s one of the best indoor players in the world. One of the better field players too. Beastly but silky mitts and a blistering shot.
  3. Josh Byrne has been listed as questionable for tomorrow’s game. I suspect that he’ll give it a go at least. Really need him back. 🤞🤞🤞
  4. Never know I guess. Here’s my guess for starting lineup. First game of the regular season. I could definitely see Red playing more players than JB has in the past, as I truly believe he wants to get back to a more fast paced, “run and gun” offense. I could see 9 or 10 players getting burn. Mintz Starling Bell Benny McLeod
  5. I was referring specifically to the starting lineup, but yeah.
  6. Bandits offense is just not the same without Josh Byrne. You could tell Colorado was sliding early to Dhane Smith and Cloutier. Tahoka not getting his typical wide open looks at GLE. Tavares is going to have to mix in some new looks on offense.
  7. Bell or Westry at the 3? I say Bell starts bc he’s the better shooter, and Westry is first off the bench. Judah at the point and Starling at SG.
  8. My guess is that Judah comes back to Syracuse. I’ve heard a few things, but I believe the coaching staff expects him back. Just my gut along with a couple tid-bits I’ve picked up in the last few days.
  9. Go Heat 🔥. I’ve been a 76ers fan since Charles Barkley was drafted, but I love the way Jimmy Butler plays. It was especially delicious seeing all Celts fans crying in their coffee at work this morning. Almost as good as when the Bruins got bounced.
  10. D1 field natty at 1:00 and NLL finals game 2 at 4:00. Gonna be a good day for fans who care at all about minor league sports such as lacrosse and HS curling!
  11. So fondling your own balls is like…your thing? Weird kink.
  12. And it likely never will and that’s okay with me. Those who can’t appreciate the sheer beauty and physicality of the sport don’t deserve it anyway. 🤷🏾‍♂️
  13. Of course. I can’t help myself. That way I know what songs are most likely to be played, I can memorize the lyrics, and then I look like a super-duper fan as I sing along with the lyrics verbatim.
  14. Bandits had to put Josh Byrne, one of their best forwards, on IR today. That’s gonna hurt. Hoping for a packed arena tonight. LGO Bandits!!! Screw you right in the ear with your niche niche sport comment. 😂
  15. At least one full load of laundry per day. Sometimes two depending on the time of the year. Having two kids who are always on the go with sports, and a wife who works out twice per day, we do a crap ton of laundry.
  16. This is wild. I was reading that he’d only be practicing with the team, and my cousin and I were texting about it this morning and he said the coaching staff is saying that there is a chance he could play if he gets up to speed.
  17. Brush your teeth! Now, boom orange juice! That’s life! John Mulaney
  18. Man…my pants just got a little “snug” in the front.
  19. I like me some Brie or Camembert. Slice it and melt it on toasted French bread. I have this raspberry-jalapeño jam that I get at the farmers market that goes really well with it. Frequent late night snack for me and the wife. Paired with some champagne or a nice wine. 👌👌👌
  20. I’ve always wondered if you could get cheap tickets on StubHub or SeatGeek the morning of the game at a good discount. Anyone ever do this? There must be tickets still available and sellers wanting to get something for their tickets.
  21. welp, he’s committed which is huge. Does he have a significant injury history? Keep reading that online.
  22. I have a good feeling about Naheem McLeod. If we land him I’ll stop crying about Jesse Edwards.
  23. pretty sure he’s top 10 now
