Song-Summertime
I was actually at that Bandits vs Seals game lol, quite a good game too. My Dad has been a fan of them ever since they started in 1992, and he was the one that introduced me to the game. I’m really glad he did, I’ve been going to games whenever I get the chance, the atmosphere alone makes it worth it.
Go Bandits!
That’s great! My dad played a similar role in my love for lacrosse. I will always connect the sport with spending time with him. I’m glad to hear you’ve kept at it, you’re lucky to be a bandits fan, they’re a great team. But respectfully, go Mammoth!
@@RockyMountainLacrosse all I’ll say is this lol, if we meet in the finals again this year I just hope it’s a good series
Love the NLL. Back in the day, Portland had the Lumberjaxs, and there isn't a day that goes by where I don't think about em. I wish the NLL would come back to Portland. We have such a unique and home grown lax community here in Oregon.
The success of smaller markets like ROC (my NLL team) BUF, and Albany all around each other gives me hope for the PLL dividing up regions as time goes on. As excited as I am for expansion markets to grow the game, I do hope so see a CT team,an upstate NY team or two, and Long Island and some form of the Bayhawks come back. The success of smaller market NLL teams gives me hope.
The NLL gets the smaller markets so right, for the most part. They honor heritage and rivalry in a way field lacrosse leagues have yet to replicate
Thanks for continuing to put out lax content my guy. As a writer and a fan it warms me to see others with the same passion for the creator’s game. You can always count on me for a comment to appease the Almighty Algorithm. Happy holidays and looking forward to more NLL coverage and your Champ Series takes.
It’s comments like this that are the reason I keep making content. The Lacrosse community is filled with so many great and supportive people. Thanks for the kind words, you can count on me to keep putting out content. Merry Christmas, I hope you have a great holiday.
Aye! Glad you decided to finally get into the NLL! Couple things: The NLL got rid of the East-West conferences in favor of a unified standings system starting this season. Previously there were 7 teams in the West and 8 in the East which created two problems. 1. Some weirdness in the playoffs which would be the top 4 of the East, the top 3 of the West and then a wild card slot on the West side for the next best team with a tie going to the western team. This meant that eastern teams had a slight advantage of getting into the playoffs and the finals almost invariably being a western team vs an eastern team. The second problem it created was discussion around future expansion teams always was centered around "well it has to be in the West because they only have 7 to the East's 8". Unified standings will mean the top 8 teams make it to the playoffs regardless of location and future expansion isn't pigeon-holed into a western location. The new commissioner Brett Frood seems to have a really great vision for the future of the NLL which has me excited for whatever comes next. I recommended The Back of the Bird podcast which is 3 NLL guys interviewing various lacrosse players if you want some insight into the BTS and history of the league!
This is a great comment, thank you for the clarification. Honestly that makes a ton of sense why they would do that. I do plan on doing more NLL content so the input is really appreciated. Thank you again!
Also as a Knighthawks fan I feel obligated to defend them. While the Bandits are the most successful Pegula team and has the biggest fan turnout in the league (they're currently the longest continuous team in one location which helps) the Knighthawks get a pretty solid turnout considering Rochester is smaller than a lot of the other market cities and while the current Knighthawks franchise was started in 2019, the old Knighthawks franchise was one of the most successful teams in the league and won three years in a row (the only team to do it). That franchise was then moved to Halifax and took our championships with them. The current coach, of the second era Knighthawks Mike Hasen, is the same coach that won three years in a row with the original franchise and the team looked good last year and even better this year.
@@EliHackett-fm4of I’ll never get over losing the OG hawks. Wearing a blue and black Reebok Knighthawks hat as I write this.
Saw my first NLL game open day for the Firewolves, Loved it!!! Have not missed a home game yet, and got a subscription to ESPN so I can watch every game in the league.
I have a brother I don't get along with the best, or at least haven't historically. He's not into sports, at all, but I managed to convince him to go to a seals game with me this past year (my first lax game too), and it was an amazing bonding experience and he got into it like crazy it was awesome
So glad to see some NLL Coverage on UA-cam. I got into the league after watching the 2022 final, and follow the games whenever they're on. It's got the right mix of speed aggressiomn (And fighting), and I hope you do more videos like this spotlighting teams, players and even games.
Oh, and by the way, GO BANDITS!
How about Baltimore? I was watching the Baltimore Thunder on old 📺 but now the arena has been renovated and there should be a NLL team.
I agree. New updates to the arena gotta bring Baltimore back
As a Canadian living in the States, let me say this a little differently: "The lacrosse season has just ended. The playoffs are over and the championship has just finished." You turn on the TV and see some familiar players playing on a big field with no boards. They have funny helmets and strange 6-foot long sticks. But they even have some players I even recognize from the NLL. I'm a little surprised to see that it's all ready the 3rd week of the season." Also, pretty unfair that my favorite PLL teams had to play their first 2 games without their best players because they were playing that 3-game championship series you were talking about!
Las Vegas is going to be around for a while as one of their owners is Wayne Gretzky. Gretzky was also a great lacrosse player in his younger days. With him involved with the team, there will always people willing to invest in the team
great video! glad you discovered this box lacrosse league :)
Box is so much more physical to me and at least in buffalo, the games are absolutely electric. Playoff games sell out keybank (full sized hockey arena). Would love to see more attention on it.
Josh Byrne, Jeff Teat, Lyle Thompson, Zach Currier who are elite in the PLL are at their best in the NLL.
I hope the NLL gets another team but in the west coast like Seattle that would bring back the east vs west conferences and maybe an all-star game.
Just an update, there are no longer 2 conferences. This year will be one ladder. Top 8 teams overall will make the playoffs.
LETS GO BANDITS!
San Diego SEALS fan here, guess who coming for you. Oh, and we had a successful mammoth hunt. 🤣
As a Mammoth fan, Lacrosse is an amazing game. We are not doing well the first 5 games but we won 1 game. I hope we win against the Calgary Roughnecks. I agree with you, NLL. Is. AWESOME!
Panther City legit had an arena remodled just for them. Lol
Glad to see it’s paid off💀 lol
Fun fact (to add on hockey players playing lacrosse in the offseason) : Both the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs used to have lacrosse teams under the same name.
Also go Thunderbirds
LET'S GO BANDITS! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm also a Mammoth fan, my dad has been watching them ever since they debuted in 2001. I just went to the Warriors VS Mammoth game and that comeback was insane. I think with Cupido finally back we're going to start getting transition goals more frequently and I think we'll be able to make to the finals for the third time in a row if we play as good as we did this week, hopefully even winning it!
That comeback was crazy! You're a lucky duck to be there for that, its great to hear from another mammoth fan! #TusksUp
can't wait for the excitement on the woolies win over vancouver. what a game!!
Yeah it’s kinda embarrassing that their is not that much people at every game for our Panther City Lacrosse team I’m from Texas😂
I’m a Bandits fan and for some reason there’s just some random bias against lacrosse, like my friends for some reason always have to try and put it down, jokes on them because the bandits are the only good Buffalo team now
I know that feeling, Lacrosse is definitely more niche. My brothers and friends do the same thing. But that will never take away the joy we get from watching. I hope my videos help make you feel better about your enjoyment for the NLL. Thanks for the great comment!
I'm from Canada so I'm more familiar with box lacrosse as opposed to field lacrosse. And yes, Hockey is much bigger in Canada, and even the CFL is bigger than lacrosse. But I'm an losing interest in Hockey, and have been looking at Lacrosse.
Banditland Is The Best Fanbase
For the issues with watching hockey games I have heard that it is way worse in Colorado than anywhere else
The Toronto team doesn’t even play in Toronto, they play in Hamilton.
NLL Expansion needs:
Edmonton, Boston, Baltimore, Portland, Detroit/Minnesota.
Possibly throw Chicago in there if they can get an arena that's midsized to play in. Most arenas aren't giant.
100% spot on, this might be the best list I’ve seen so far!
@@michaelcroft3216 The UIC Pavillion where the Chicago Wolves play would be ideal.
Detroit, Baltimore, Boston, and Portland used to have teams but they folded sadly. I hope they can get a second chance in a league expansion sometime soon.
Edmonton had the rush before they moved to Saskatoon
NLL is fuckin sweet
The nll is awesome because Texas actually has a team
Haha I should’ve just said that
Even though their name sucks and no one goes to the games except me
@@NateK48 They need to get out of Fort Worth and move to Dallas Proper.
@@Natendowii yes I want to see them play at the aac
Go swarm
Lyle Thompson is next level, I love watching him play. Even if he goes off against my Mammoths.
Facts bro@@RockyMountainLacrosse
PLL store is very delayed. Over priced.
Totally agree, keep your eye out as I plan on doing a video covering the insanity of the store.
The nll store sucks ass
