Giving you a completely different viewpoint here as a Brit who watches the NLL. Watch the English Premier League and the only time you hear music is before the game has started and during halftime. Whats the need for it during play? Whilst it probably distracts the players a bit, I imagine it is also equally as distracting for the fans. Every footballer (soccer players as you guys call them) in the league has a twitter account which is used effectively for fan interaction, why doesn’t the NLL take advantage of that too? Maybe have the proper surname on the back and the twitter tag on one sleeve?
