MLL Championship Weekend: Semifinals Recap
A quick rundown of today's Major League Lacrosse action in Annapolis, Maryland, according to YOUR comments on Twitter!
Crazy weekend for the MLL, but I sure am glad they played through the weather!
No doubt they lost some ticket revenue, but watching LIVE on ESPN2 was quite the treat for people all across the country. Hopefully today's games helped generate some new lacrosse fans!
Final scores:
Boston 14, Chesapeake 13
Hamilton 11, Denver 9Interesting tidbit: Most people who took our LAS Poll yesterday said they wanted the Denver Outlaws to win.

The teams got wet out there today, no question about it.
- Inside Lacrosse has some up-close photos of how players dealt with the rain:
- Scott Rodgers even got a new tattoo for the occasion!
- Some fresh ink on Hamilton goalie Scott Rodgers. He says now he needs to wear 42 on every team he plays for. t.co/FzHRIiP
Here are some fan reactions from throughout the day:
- Dear @MLB: please watch the @MLL_Lacrosse games on ESPN2 to see how REAL MEN play during a #Hurricane #LacrosseOverBaseball
- I respect the heck out of the @MLL_Lacrosse playing through these conditions. There are a lot of other sports that would hang it up.

Some interesting player activity occurred during the last few seconds of the Hamilton/Denver game. Most notably, an unnecessary gesture that poorly represented our sport.
