Tell E-Lacrosse not to be biased first and then I might consider it.

Man, I really hate this arguement. Is E-Lacrosse biased? OF COURSE. Are they making some pretty heavy (and irrational) accusations? YES. Are some of the stuff warrior puts out inappropriate. Yes. Do we even notice these little things, such as tiny profane catchphrases written in illegible "scribbly" fonts on magazine ads. I really doubt it. Are warrior shafts historically weak? More or less, yeah. Is all of their gear they put out subpar and cheating out the customer? Of course not. Is there stuff overpriced? At times yes, but that doesn't mean you need to buy it.
There. And here.

this arguement has been beaten to death there.

mmm...yes. this is an older article, and there's already a thread on it. Post it up in there if you've got an opinion, chances are everyone already knows about the article anyways. Also, check out laxnation's response to it.

I have a Razer head, and a Krypto Pro shaft... plus The playersclub shoulder and arm pads and I have no problems with warrior equipment. True I dont like the way they advertise. I almost threw up after visiting their site... but they do have some good products. My razer and krypto pro are super light and comfortable. I just have STX gloves and a Cascade helmet. And I use a X2 as my back up stick

that's just your opinion. Which probably explains why you thought the e-lacrosse article was so enlightening.

The article is clearly biased, and clearly someone did a lot of digging because someone at Warrior upset them. It's just like people saying McDonalds is communist.. if you dig enough you can put any spin you want on anything you want. Yes, they're controversial, but they're nowhere close to where that article puts them. Things they mention, like, "The release of the new Warrior Heroine (pronounced harrow - in) shafts with "softgrip" is tantamount to a street mugging of Harrow" and, "..and that every kid has a KIND GREEN shaft because green is boring compared to a good illegal drug reference" are just ridiculous. Sure, they have a ton of comments on there that make it seem like they have a lot of support, but have you actually read any? Try these on for size.
"I bought a $115 Warrior KryptoPro and after a short time, it snapped right in half! It broke into two pieces! My teammates, after seeing this happen are now purchasing KryptoPros! Warrior has established itself to where it has a stranglehold on the new lacrosse player market, especially out here in the northwest. - Alan" .. This one doesn't even make sense.
"I was someone who used to be in Warrior's inner circle. I can explain it all. The street slang and drug references they use in their advertisments to try to make themselves look cool because in real life they are NOT. - No Name" He's agreeing with E-Lacrosse on the basis that Warrior executives are losers?

That is the biggest joke of an article iv'e ever seen, they have the mac daddy gloves and say "they incourage prostitution" hahahaha
hey just something i noticed a few days ago is that on super freaks(i dont know if this is on any of warriors other gloves) but on that little inner cuff thing that everyone is so crazy about on the top of it it has the little warrior sign and right below this it says pimp. You can barely see it so look close and youll see.
