With Major League Lacrosse headed to the Queen City in 2012, hundreds and maybe even thousands of fans are thrilled. While professional
lax may not be the biggest draw nationwide, the sport has shown tremendous growth potential through youth leagues, and that could serve as a ray of sunshine for Charlotte. In a city where the Bobcats squad is headlined by NBA good guy Stephen Jackson, and the Panthers are set to fail with a rookie quarterback and reliable targets like Brandon LaFell and David Gettis, Charlotte sports fans haven't had much to cheer about lately. Add to all that the fact that Jimmy Clausen still currently resides in their state. Now I'm not one to give unnecessary pats on the back, but the Charlotte MLL franchise has done a tremendous job in engaging fans through social media and even allowing them to pick the mascot and design for their soon-to-be team.
Don't get it twisted- I'll probably never watch a single minute of a single game, but I've already submitted my vote for the Charlotte Flow. Anyone who knows anything about "bro" and "lax" culture knows that any good player earns his stripes by his "flow."
Lax flow is that shaggy hair style that every 14 year old guy thinks is necessary to woo an equally awkward, self conscious female. The fact that I could potentially contribute to a professional franchise being named after a hair style embodying pimple-faced adolescents (or is that adolescence?) is amazing.
To understand the Ultimate Lax Bro better,
enjoy this comedic gem brought to you by this flow bearing, pinny wearing, Busch Light chugging bro.
