Fun Stuff!

LaxAllStars.com Photo of the Week is just straight tucking in goals.  New Orleans is fun!  Mardi Gras is fun!  Video highlights from the Mardi Gras Lacrosse Tournament are fun too!  STX Auction to benefit Thai flood victims!  The flooding wasn’t fun at all, but the chance to help out buy bidding on lacrosse gear is.

MCLAFan Photo of the Week is new and awesome!  FULL review of the Mardi Gras Lacrosse Tournament.  Lacrosse in snow covered Italy?  Don’t mind if I do.  Get involved with CityLax in New York City!  This is a groups that Grows The Game like few others!  Thailand announces their initial roster!

Has chrome gone way too far?  Big weekend on the Blue!  Ducks feed Ducks.  RL Burnside has a song called “That Mother#%&@er Stole My Check”.  Check out Music Monday for more.  Mardi Gras Tourney – Photo Blog. MLL trades.  Who wants to do the American Revolution in Europe?  Looks fun.  Lots of techno.

Killer Interviews:

Ryan Powell interviews Brett Hughes, and they both let it rip.  Krieg Shaw sits down with Chris Davis of Warrior to talk sneakers and design.

Gear:

New Oregon Uniforms!  Free shipping in February from Lacrosse Panda.  The season is right around the corner.  What do you still need?  Mountain Lakes will be wearing ONE ORANGE GLOVE and ONE WHITE GLOVE.  Seriously.  Punky Brewster style.  Elevation Sublimation.  ZimaGear Electricity.  Warrior Bushido shoe gets tested.  Passes.

THIS is the real Stevenson helmet.  Wild.  Oregon State‘s new lid is also wild.  Hobart gets gear.  But in a different way. Are compression shorts the next big swag item?  Nike goes Crimson, Indiana rejoices.  Iowa State Cloud looks good.  Singapore and Hong Kong HeadWrapz.  Reversible jealousy?  You call that a shirt?

Under Armour news isn’t ALL bad!  Right now they’re invading the MCLA in a big, and sometimes surprising, way!  UA Head Review as well.  Not bad for a first year head! And then there were these UA cleats.  Dear God.  At least we know what happened to Jimmy Choo.

And then we get to one mamajama of a “gear” post from Iowa Lacrosse Is Paul Gait Cursed?  An interesting take for sure!  Well worth a read and a comment!

And on an NLL note, check out some story lines from InLaxWeTrust.  Not to shabby!
