Scheduling Is Everything

You are forgiven if you did not even know that the National LaCrosse League existed.

And you are not alone.

But on Sunday, The Rochester NIghthawks were crowned champions of the NLL with a 13-11 win over the Arziona Sting. It might have been hard to forgive the scheduling co-ordinators at Blue Cross Arena had the Nighthwaks succombed to the desert heat in Tucson. You see, Rochester was supposed to host the championship game, but due to a scheduling conflict they were forced to play the game on their opponents home turf. Seems that officials in Rochester were so confident in their teams playoff chances that they scheduled the Ringling Bros Circus instead of the chapionship game.

Hey Buffalo fans, at least up state NY has one championship to cherish.
