David M. Blodgett Writes
As a season ticket holder for the Rochester Knighthawks from the inception, I would like you to forward this to all the players that you can. We as fans
appreciate all of the extra time the players spend with the fans. I know a
few of the Knighthawks and they will sign autographs for the fans, win or lose.
Little things like that as well as taking a minute or two to answer a
question or two at a post game party is what makes your sport great and why attendance
is good at most of the arenas. Keep up the good work.

As a lacrosse fan, I love the NLL and the great players who play in it.
I just hope that the players recognize the potential for this game.
After the horrible treatment that the players got from the MILL, it will
be hard not to be greedy. I hope the PLPA will take an active role in
the promotion of the sport and the league. Remember that the average
person doesn't know a thing about lacrosse. Teach them the game and
they will love it. The NLL players are the most down to earth,
accessible, and likeable athletes I've ever seen. The public loves that,
keep it up. The PLPA needs to help the NLL overcome their marketing
deficiencies. Make public appearances, do interviews, visit youth
leagues and schools. Don't just concentrate in lax hotbeds,expand the
market. Unfortunately, the stars of today will probably not be able to
reap the benefits they create. The PLPA needs to do all they can to
make this sport thrive.
PS. This site is a great start. Keep updating as the season goes on,
and keep us diehards updated in the offseason. How about adding "other
occupation" to the profiles?
