Probably Should Have Beaten Houston, Thanks New England

Brine gloves arrive finally! Maverik refuses to bail on its flawed marketing campaign. A hilariously brash statement about Billy Looney. Dyed stick blowout. Let’s lax.

We begged and pleaded.

Now they are here.

Hobart

Army

Bryant

Jet Black elephant skin and leather with metallic gold accents

UMBC

The Black material has a metallic brushed texture

First batch of gloves are off to a good start for Brine.

Duke, Georgetown, Rutgers, Loyola, and Notre Dame wait in the wings.

Maverik get a grip.

Rabil is not a solider. Neither is Kellen Winslow.

Found this unit on Lax.com.

Rabil and Billy Looney circa 2007.

The only difference between these two is the name on their uniforms.

We might be so bold as to say Looney was better. Put Looney on a better team and call us.

But we’ll never really know thanks to his military commitment.

Who is the culprit?

E-Lacrosse Stick Dye Contest

E-Lacrosse recently published the results of their annual contest. These sticks are mind blowing like if Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Requiem for a Dream met and had a baby.

Slightly prettier than our all white STX Professor. It’s pearly does are numbered.

What’s our policy on dye jobs that are anti-team colors?

1. Pink doesn’t belong on the field unless the event benefits breast cancer research.

2. Baby blue is only acceptable if it is apart of your team’s color scheme.

3. If you’re a youth, high school, or college player, your dye job should not promote drugs or alcohol brands.

4. If you’re not one of the best players on your team, you can only dye your stick team colors.

Amendment to 4: if the stick was a hand me down due to financial reasons you are permitted to use said unit.

General rule of thumb: if your game can’t back it up, don’t do anything foolhardy to attract attention to yourself.

McLean mock ups by Striker Danger.

Just saying.

Welker doesn’t deserve this but the Patriots do for losing to Houston.

Having said that, we did lose to Cleveland…Kansas City…and Oakland.

    “4. If you’re not one of the best players on your team, you can only dye your stick team colors.”
    Amen. The high school team I coach wears black, orange, and white. Most of our players used white or black mesh. One of the captains had regular orange mesh and a couple of guys had orange K-lytes. Otherwise everybody had neutral colors. We did have one player show up at a game with NEON FREAKING ORANGE – so bright you could direct planes on the runway – mesh on a Gold Gait shaft. Needless to say he could not back up the stick he wielded, but that did not stop the other team from smearing the crap out of him.
    I always encourage neutral colors – even for the best players. No sense in drawing undue attention.
