Tweet of the Week: No More Neon, Grippy Lacrosse Balls for MLL

Major League Lacrosse has seemingly gone away from using the grippy, neon orange balls that they have used in the past. This caused quite a stir on Twitter, especially from the Chesapeake Bayhawk’s head coach Dave Cottle. At first the rumor was that grippy balls picked up too much dirt, making them hard to see on TV. When the discussion turned to the color of the balls being the issue, the best tweet came in the form of Trevor Tierney appealing to Connor Martin.

Major League Lacrosse has seemingly gone away from using the grippy, neon orange balls that they have used in the past. This caused quite a stir on Twitter, especially from Chesapeake Bayhawks’ head coach Dave Cottle. At first the rumor was that grippy balls picked up too much dirt or turf pellets, making them hard to see on TV. When the discussion turned to the color of the balls being the issue, the best tweet came in the form of Trevor Tierney appealing to Connor Martin.

It seems that a lot of players (shooters and keepers alike) and coaches are upset about the ball change. Could an awesome and crazy Con Bro Chill video get enough attention to change the MLL’s mind? Probably not…but wouldn’t it be sweet?

Tweet of the Week: Suit & Tie for MLL Players

The rise of the "lax bro" has been evident over the past few years, and has certainly led to a lot of discussion. Over the summer, Connor wrote about the difference between "swag" and "swagger," and I continued the conversation. After prompting from a recent article, Connor centered this week's Hot Pot on the issue again. The debate has also resurfaced on social media, leading goalie John Geagan, of the NY Lizards and Manhattan College, to tweet his mind.
