also, NBA players have a FUCKLOAD spent on them making sure that their bodies are good to go week in week out... but that doesnt mean its a harder sport, it just means its developed further than what rowing has in terms of skill, fitness etc because of the funds its had avalliable.
You realize they were world class athletes living in the Hood at 17 and not much changes at 19 in the nba

wild innit? Canadians can do some nutty fuckin things cause everything is so much more compressed compared to field lacrosse so they do crazy things in tight spaces. I play goalie in field but would never want to do box goalie. Losing all your mobility looks shitty. Plus you just look like a goob.

didn't know the non U-19 stats. The championships were held this year for that bracket so I knew those off of the top of my head. And the top 3 teams for lacrosse are always the US Canada and the Iroquois Nation

You get ranked teams and players but your state offers no competition.
I went to Dallas skyline SR year and played 6 top 50 teams
Some of the.Florida teams could beat big.east.teams.
