Default Pro Lacrosse??

So I was watching the news the other day and heard about some guy financing his own "pro" lacrosse team here in Chicago...just wondering if any other cities might have a team now? You know, it'd be hard to have a sports team and not have anyone to play, I think fans would give up if they couldn't see their favorite players play AT ALL. :haha: Sound familiar?

Discuss.

There is a league called the NLL with teams in Toronto, Buffalo, Rochester, Philadelphia, Calgary, Edmonton, Arizona and a bunch of other teams. I can't speak for the other teams, but I know the Toronto franchise has been very successful at the gate.

Most of the players will hold two jobs when they are playing, but it's still worth it. It's a cool sport to watch.

They moved to Ottawa in the 2000 to become the Rebels who in turn moved to Edmonton to become the Rush.

I've seen the indoor one flipping channels one night. Awesome. Just like hockey, except no ice and skates!

I would be interested if they had a team in Detroit.
