It may not be the flashiest, furthest reaching or highest profile sports league in North America, but Major League Lacrosse's passionate community of fans, coaches and players give it certain qualities not seen by spectators of more established sports. Writer Phil Shore spent the 2019 MLL season visiting all of the league's active franchises to better understand what drives the people who love and dedicate themselves to this overlooked corner of the sporting world. Phil joins me to share what makes the league special, what it has to offer the sports travel fan and why the future is brighter than some may assume.

Can you imagine Tom Brady playing Arena Football? How about Cristiano Ronaldo playing in a summer indoor football league? Welcome to the world of pro lacrosse, where some of the top stars make a living playing year round in multiple leagues. Tracing its roots back to Native American communities and with a recorded history of more than 350 years, it's North America's indigenous game. Now played in three forms, Adam Moore and Hutton Jackson of Pro Lacrosse Talk are our guides through the outdoor (field), indoor (box) and women's (a distinctly different game) versions of the game. Featuring world renowned arenas (and occasional stadium), increased media coverage and high profile sponsorship deals indicate it's a sport steadily on the rise and well with checking out.
