Since it is the off-season, I'd prefer having a new [Lax] thread for each discussion rather than a huge uber-thread that runs the length of the season.
(Oh yeah. My club lax team beat Brown 15-14 in OT today. Wooo Doggie.)

Good point. The growing cumbersomosity of that monster Lax thread is why I had proposed starting a new general thread ("Lacrosse II" -- I shoulda just done it insteada merely proposin' it!).
In addition to maintaining a series of general Lax threads (I, II, III, etc. -- start a new one each time the previous one accumulates several dozen posts), we could also have specific game-related ones (like the CU-Hahvahd one). Just suggestin'... (ain't I fulla bureaucratic b.s.?!) )
(And, yes, this is all only because it's off-hockey-season. I wouldn't presume to lax-hog the board while there's ice in Lynah.)
(P.S. -- Congrats on the victory over the Bruins!)

1. Is the lax schedule anywhere?
2. There used to be a great site with the national rankings, schedules, etc. What was it?

www.laxpower.com is better than insidelacrosse, IMO.
However, I am a little disappointed in Laxpower this year. In the past, they used some sort of iterative pairwise statistical model to determine the power rating. You could even figure out predicted goal differentials. In my mind, the neatest feature is that you get credit for quality losses, i.e. Brown's 1 goal OT loss to SU still improves their PR.
This year, they went to a BCS style rating that takes the power rating, and adds in the poll results. Given the old boys in MD don't want to recognize an Ivy resurgence this year, the polls and power ratings can vary to a large degree. Take for example the April 4th results:
I guess "real sports fans" don't like "that there computer stuff."

Agree, John. The new system borders on worthless.::rolleyes:
But the Forum can be informative.

Greg, another site:
www.360lacrosse.com
It's decent although I find it somewhat awkward to navigate.
