Warrior denied in Grand Rapids!

Ok, just because I've been flowing this story I'm going to add this little bit...

A judge in Grand Rapids (that's MI boys and girls) denied an immedeate hearing for the case of Warrior/Athletes Connection (NBalance chain) vs the NCCA.

Warriors position is that it needs to block the NCCA rule change by October in order to avoid retooling equipment.

Apparently the judge decided the 6 months it took for Warrior to file the suit didn't make their case seem immedeate...no future court dates have been set.

Warrior files lawsuit against NCAA

Ok, so the deal is the NCAA changed the head specs causing current heads and those in development to now be illegal.



The rule:

Personally, I think this will all go away when the NCAA simply gives in and makes the rule change effective in 2011.

I also think that these pinched heads are BS. I have, on several occasions pin-wheeled some fish only to see the ball not drop out as it spun through the air (uh, hello? gravity?).

Bottom line is, if you have good stick skills, moves and you practice you should be able to play lacrosse with a little wire minnow net. If you can't, well, maybe you should go back to baseball.
