Comical. Not horseshoes, guys. Almost doesn't count. Consistency, history, record - that does.

So in 99 you went into OT also, who won?...you're right, it's not horseshoes, it's youth lacrosse that is played on an uneven field and has been for years, that is your consistency, your history, your record. You win all of the time because of your system, people in Maryland know it and more or less accept because it the structure we are forced to play in. Don't pretend for one minute that many of the local teams wouldn't be as good or better if the ages were leveled out. If you just won quietly and with some dignity, people would not have started dancing in the streets at halftime of the debacle on Saturday.
