Sure, when I see people walking down the street wearing New England… er, what is the New England professional lacrosse team that’s got games on NESN and ESPN every night? ... when I see people walking down the street with their logo on instead of the Boston Red Sox, I might think that lacrosse is the national pastime.
Or when Congress has a former Senator look into the allegations of steroid use in pro lacrosse. Seriously.
Can anyone even name someone who made more than a million dollars playing lacrosse last year?
That’s why baseball is the national pastime, and lacrosse is played by preppy jocks who couldn’t make it onto the baseball team.
