[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lacrosse isn't, and probably never will be, equal to baseball. More kids play baseball, more colleges have programs, etc. It is also a more affordable game for kids to play. Don't confuse the lunatic following lacrosse has spread over a few dozen prep schools with something that is a real national scope game. [/quote]

In this area, lacrosse is the premium spring  sport at privates in dc/baltimore.   A big bonus for the high schools is that the college programs are disproportionately at elite schools. You seem stuck in the 80's.[/quote]

No, you seek stuck in the lax cheerleader section. What I wrote is lacrosse is a sport taken too seriously for what it is at a couple dozen prep schools. In the DMV + Baltimore you see that. Go 100 miles west or 100 miles south and you don't see that. Baseball is huge in every corner and county of America. Yes, some good academic colleges have lacrosse. But every one of those colleges has baseball and baseball goes hundreds of more colleges deep in the sport. In this area prep school lacrosse is the world to those idiot parents. But then there's the other 99% that doesn't care about it. [/quote]
