I personal like how the powells play the game. I also like to see an attackmen who rides hard and does all the hard work to set up his teamates for the goals

my family sits with Larry and Sue Powell at all the SU games, we tailgate before and after with them and when Casey and Ryan come down they hang with their parents so I get to ahng with them. Ahter the game Mikey comes out too...it's awesome. We also see them at all the Rattler games, my little brother and Mason are pretty tight too.

Yeah, I just went to the Rattlers game on Sat., and I got all 3 Powells autographs. Luckily, I ran out onto the field, and who do you know was out there? Mike Powell! It was so lucky, and he is really nice, so is Casey, but I already knew that.
I also saw his whole family there.
-Go Rattlers!

powellfan1
07-19-2003, 08:02 AM
Oh, I thought it was the last one, because I went onto the field after the game for autographs, and I went to get Mike Powell, and I was standing near the goal, and some kids were playing there with their sticks, and a kid shot it and hit the post, and almost hit us, and some man was like"Mike, don't shoot around here!" I thought that was your brother or whatever.
-Go Rattlers!

I try to play a lot like John Gagalardi(spelling???)or any other defenseman-Rob Doeer probably.:concerned But I can`t really say I have one real person I follow, I like a lot of personal motos that are not just from lacrosse...:banghead but I still try to be like a lot of those defenders.:laugh hah-I almost forgot,I still also like the Powells and of course the Gait brothers.But I still think much about which is my favorite team...and which defender I follow(I often find that I argue with myself on that fact...:cry...what can you do???).I really like most all MLL lacrosse pros,I just find that it takes a lot to become one,and I respect that,because it takes a lot to become a good pro at everything:off OOPS,getting a bit of th topic.

Yeah Yeah MX enough of that, We said who YOU try to play like, not who do you want to be, I am stuck on myself too, but I try to play like guys who are actually making money playing the game not losing money :) Until I have someone buying my equipment... Im gonna look up to the guys who dont have to buy there own stuff. Jalbert is my Idol :)

I just answered the question and it is: what player do you try to play like and i said you cant play like anybody else consciously unless you are in some type of trick contest, idols are great, i have plant of my own, but I dont play like them, i just admire their contributions to the team/sport. My idols include: Todd Macfarlane and Spencer Wright

ya same, if you develop your style from a pro player when your starting out, than you can custom your own moves.

When I was 8, my neighbor and I wanted to be the Gait bros. so all we did was practice the air gait on their hockey goal.
And then in college my coaches made Johnny Christmas jokes about me being the exact opposite type of player he is. Since he was Johnny Christmas, I was dubbed Aaron Channukah...there was even video footage to boot...but I don't try and play like anyone in particular anymore.

id have to agree. i look up to Conor Gill, and Ryan Boyle. theyre both freakin awesome feeders and they can both get the goals when they need to. i personally go for the assist before being selfish and taking it for myself. i love watching both play the game.

um, i look up to guys like mark millon, maracheck, conor gill, and mike powell. but i dont really try to model my game after any of theirs. id say i watch all different players and takes pieces from each, its helped me to form somewhat of my own playing style
