I was at a BBQ yesterday that included some of the Kings coaches, front offive peopleand other pesonnell. We were just chatting about the state of the league. Apparently June 16th is huge for the league because that's when all the sponsors have to have their budgets in to the league. If the league can't come to an agreement they won't have any sponsorship for the upcoming year. Imagine, no TV deal, no sponsorship.......Let's hope cooler heads prevail over the next month and they figure something out.

Not here.

I'm hoping their heads continue to be so full of themselves that they burn baby burn.

Let's see that greed fest survive without sponcership... :)

Lax-
Speaking of circled dates, I'm sure you caught the Final Four from Philly. It's the only time I get to see lacrosse on TV and it ain't nearly enough. The last moments of UVa--Hopkins was amazing and Duke played like their basketball team in the Final....getting a lead then folding down the stretch. Need an experienced take on the weekend. Sir?

I only saw the final game. We were camping that weekend and decided to come home a day early due to weather. I need to get CSTV so I can watch more.
