Wayback Wednesday: This One Goes Out To All The Haters Who Think Lacrosse Is Soft
That's assault, brotha!
And if you've ever felt how heavy some of those old wooden sticks are, you could make the case that's assault with a deadly weapon. So I'm sorry but I'm just failing to recognize how a sport where literal felonies are being committed on the playing surface can be considered "soft".
You get a flag in football if you accidentally sneeze in the direction of the quarterback. You get a foul in basketball if an opposing player jumps in the air to shoot a shot and then lands where you are standing. But here we have a guy trying to make mashed potatoes out of an opponent's brains and the ref just politely asks if they could refrain from doing that again.
Tough look for all the haters today. Hope you have plenty of time to consider how wrong you've been while you're standing in the outfield waiting for a pop fly to come your way for 30 minutes.
