NLL Going Outdoors

The NLL has confirmed that they are indeed pursuing a push to take the NLL outdoor in the summer of 2007, commish Jim Jennings confirmed during a press conference in Denver on Thursday afternoon. The current NLL will remain a winter pro boxla league, but at the same time the NLL is eagerly perusing the development of this new pro field league that will take affect during the summer of 2007. The league would put a stranglehold on the pro scene as well as allow many of today's NLLers the opportunity to play pro ball on a full-time basis.
