Day of Rivals
The Day of Rivals is perhaps the most anticipated lacrosse event of the year. This event takes place at the Baltimore Ravens stadium in Maryland. It also showcases the two bestrivalries in College lac rosse, Army vs. Navy and Johns Hopkins vs. Maryland. The Army Navy game puts pride and passion on the line, while the Hopkins Maryland game is back yard bragging rights. This year the underdogs Army look to sink Navy. While the Maryland upeerclassmen look to defeat a young Hopkins squad. This game will also determine who could win the Patriot league tournament which will give either Army or Navy an autpomatic bid to the NCAA tournament. Alos Hopkins is struggling coming off a 4 game losing streak and are at risk to not make the Ncaa tournament but a win over the number 3 terps will give them a great shot. All in All it should be a fun and beautiful day for lacrosse.

Bill Clinton was 42nd President of the United States. Monica Lewinsky helped show the world how much of a bro he is. He attended Oxford and Yale law school. Recently, single handedly, freed imprissoned Americas in North Korea (Very Bro). Perhaps the only non-bro thing he did was marry Hillary.
Bill Gates, Worlds richest man (about as bro as you can get). Dropped out of Stanford and technically does not have a college degree. He is also a famous Philanthropist.
Warren Buffett or Warren BROffett. The worlds most famous invester. Son of a congressmen (very bro). Made bank off his own pinball machine business as a freshmen in highschool. Attended UPENN, University of Nebrask-Lincoln, and Columbia University, Im sure he did his fair share of partying at each.
Mark Zuckerberg. He is on the Forbes list of Billionaires, and because he invented Facebook he pretty much controls everyones lives. He was a Classic Prep school Bro attending Phillips Exeter Academy. Attended Harvard and eventually gave that up and moved to California with his Bros.
Guidos are not bros
Guidos are not be mistaken for bros, first guidos wear way too much gel in their hair, more than anyone should wear. Guidos are guys with designer jeans, shaved eyebrows, and muscle tees in the corner jumping up and down and pumping their fists. They also tend to have a 365 day tan no matter what season it is. A guido party is a repetitive thumping of music and flashing lights and peole going crazy fistpuming looking like clowns. Bros were aware about their dislke of guidos well before the show "Jersey Shore". Guidos think they can do and say aything because they think their all connected to the mafia, when really their just everyday people.

Mustache March
Mustache March is one of the few times when its acceptable to grow a mustache and not be called a pedifile or have people ask how many STD's you posses in the fur over your upper lip. Don't get me wrong people still may ask you that its just less likely. Generaly a bro would rather be clean shaven, posses a chinstrap or have sweet sideburns. That is why bro's love march because they can let their dirty pedifile mustaches rage and no one can say a thing.
Lacrosse an olympic sport?
Lacrosse has been dominated by the Americans, who have won the World Championship every year except 1978, when they lost to Canada. Since then the World Championship has multiplied in size, in terms of teams competing. The countries taking part were Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, England, Germany, Iroquois Nation, Japan, Scotland, Sweden, United States, and Wales. Although it is played in many countries the United States is still expected to dominate. The Iroquois have been competing against other countries since the 19th Century, but were not allowed to participate in the World Championship or Olympics until 1990 because the box lacrosse leagues they played in were considered professional in nature and therefore they were not able to play in amateur competition. It did not take long for th Iroquois to be eligible to play, their winless streak did not last long either. Their first win came in the 1994 games, when they defeated newcomer Japan twice. Many people in the lacrosse community talk about attempting to re-include lacrosse in the Olympic games. But because they only had 11 countries show in the 1998 world championship they are unable to make it an olympic sport because it need 75 countries. This means that lacrosse must further develop in 12 countries and grow to 47 others in order to become an Olympic sport.
