Liked Belle Smith’s comment that when they played Carolina in the regular season she was in awe of them… Then at Final Four it was “ya they are unc, and we are Boston College” Total respect for Carolina, but new found confidence in what the BC team brings to the table Yes! Loved that quote too. Gav...

“It was crazy, I’ve never actually played in front of that big of a crowd before so just being able to score those goals and then just feel energy was like I felt I was in a dream—it was unreal.”

—Jenn Medjid on semifinal win vs Carolina

With COVID adding another year to many elite players, next year may produce some of the best teams ever assembled. Obviously there are many variables at play, but think about this years Final Four teams: BC, National Champs (luv wring that)- returns their core players, while adding the #1 and #4 in...

OuttaNowhereWregget : your team won a National Championship a few weeks ago. Celebrate that instead of looking to out players as "dirty" because you somehow feel that prevented your team from winning the NC. It didn't, in my opinion. That's not why I shared it with BCGold, but you are ent...

I know its not the main point of ur post, but yes, as a BC fan JMU winning the 2018 national title did make me angry!!! I second that. While we're on the subject of angry--remember this? -HMiV1u6Gko Was this really necessary? What's the point? Us BC fans remember it well. I posted it and quote/tagg...

That said, adding a player like Dirks to an already stacked team whose only blemish was a 1 goal loss to the eventual National Champions is more than likely a net positive for Carolina

Without a doubt.

You are most welcome, BCGold. I loved watching it too.

True, though all deserve respect for their efforts to be the best they can be, their contributions to their team, and to the sport. I think that's the point. So, when we talk about players, we really shouln't pee on someone who is less terrific than someone else. Doesn't mean that we can't say play...

I am wondering if your generalized/targeted post above fell into a foe bucket....Not for me. I love all. It's 'cause I have those obnoxious red dreads, yellow skin and goofy eyes...can't hate when you are me...although there was that time on the Simpsons when I went crazy.... That would be fine wit...

In case any of you Boston College Eagles fans didn't get a chance to watch this excellent documentary--Dream Big - The Story of Boston College Lacrosse--which aired on ACC Network last night--here it is, in its entirety, sans commercial interruptions. Run time is just under 26 minutes. Enjoy! zsYTq...

I joined LaxPower, the old forum that eventually folded back in the summer of 2018, if I remember correctly. When I discovered the Party had moved, I jined up immediately. I remember looking through all the tabs in the User Control Panel and puzzling over the Friends & Foes tab. https://pbs.twim...

Not beating a dead horse at all. I see and hear the elitist stuff regularly and it burns my tuchas! RESPECT the game and the players. That's what I choose to do and I'll continue to do that. Larry, may I ask--do you feel the same way about men's college sports in the NCAA? Lacrosse, basketball, foo...

Dirks -----> UNC. Hmm… guess it did not hurt that Levy is the HC of the USA team and Dirks has been at the training camps this summer Is this confirmed Not officially. But I think someone knows something on these boards. The leaks on FanLax are fairly reliable. You've got some folks very close to t...

They are rich, but that didn't help them against BC. I'm not telling you anything you don't know, of course. All their riches couldn't buy them a solution to Hall, Medjid, Scales, North, Smith, Schleicher... and the list goes on. "Love that Dirty Water."

Sometimes usernames run their course.

Remarkable look back at Major League Baseball in Aug 19th 1965. What a televised broadcast on TV was like before technology, if you will. This game pitting the Reds vs Cubs at Wrigley is picked up in the 8th inning of a good old fashioned pitchers duel which ended in the 10th.
