NLL Playoffs: 2 Hours to Game Time

Art — Sat, 05 May 2012 22:13:50 +0000

Time to get fired up for the rematch between the Minnesota Swarm and the Colorado Mammoth, this time in the first round of the NLL playoffs. No better way to get ready for the game than to listen to some Santiago x The Natural. This video is from last weekend’s game at the X.

The Swarm are coming off a four-game winning streak (including last weekend’s home victory over the Mammoth). We’ll be at Cork’s Irish Pub tonight watching with the folks from The Hive. Go, Swarm!

Watch Jesse Play Box Lacrosse

Jesse and I had the opportunity to play in the Minnesota Swarm media game last weekend. Jesse played well and held her own, just like the athlete that she is. I, on the other hand, merely tried to survive without having a stroke or heart attack. The clip below, which aired on the local TV news, shows Jesse guarding one of the local sports anchors as he gets a breakaway and scores a goal.

The Swarm coaching staff and its star players gave us a 90-minute clinic in face-offs, loose ball scooping and shooting. Jesse and I had a blast. Later that evening, we got to come back to the arena and watch the Swarm clinch a playoff spot, led by star forward and Redbird Media client Callum Crawford.

Wicked cool hoar frost when we woke up this morning. Every outside surface seemed to have sprouted white whiskers overnight.

Greatest Lacrosse Shot. Evah.

Check out buzzer beater, full-court shot by team captain @suits20 in last night’s Swarm home-opener. Suck it, Bandits. Cheap shots and sucker punches don’t make you guys winners.

Minnesota Swarm 2012, a set on Flickr.

Katie, Jesse and I made our way to the Xcel Center tonight to watch the Minnesota Swarm take on the Buffalo Bandits. And to rep the Cherokee Nation for Native American Heritage Night with the Swarm.

This had to be one of the best lax games I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot of lacrosse games over the years. Highlights of the night were captain Andrew Suitor’s full-court shot at the buzzer to score a goal in an empty Buffalo net, as well as the phenomenal play of rookie goalie Tyler Carlson.

Final score was 19-11 Minnesota, for the first home victory over the Bandits in franchise history.
