We already have a fast, physical spring/summer alternative to baseball called lacrosse. As a bonus it is native to this continent.
Oh, I have no argument with that. I just wanted to check the comments about a boy playing a girls game.
Field Hockey, when played by adult men, is as exciting as Lacrosse. I know its hard to believe. But its true.
And Lacrosse is my favorite spring sport (I photograph sports for a living.)
I have often said that if I were Czar, and I mean real Czar and not a wimpy Obama czar, I would ban K-12 soccer, issue everyone lacrosse gear, and make it the official alternate Spring sport to baseball. Lacrosse has everything soccer does not - action, contact, scoring, and it requires opposable thumbs.
