I don’t love piling on, but that stuff has no place in pro sports. And neither does Reid’s constant chippiness. That isn’t lacrosse, it’s bush league nonsense.

The thing about fighting in the NLL is that a lot of the 1 on 1s are exciting. But more often than not, it’s usually just two punchers getting in a fight. Guys like Snider add skill to the league, and toughness. but some of these other guys? They’re paid thugs. And it’s kind of a joke. I feel like I’m watching the WWE sometimes.

Mind you, I’m an American convert who likes box, and who isn’t opposed to fighting. I just think that this over the top brawl stuff belongs in baseball. If you need brawls to bring people to the game, it means your sport is kind of boring. Box would be wise to avoid that in my humble opinion.
