People do know in crooked arrows the coach benched Lyle Thompson to put “Toby” in the game. Which is wild since he is easily one of the greatest to ever play.
@@finnmoran527 well, it actually is Lyle Thompson playing Lyle in the movie and getting benched, because Coach wanted to give his crushs son "Tobi" a chance to play... Miles and Ty are also in Crooked Arrows 🤘

As someone who has only ever come across lacrosse on US tv and film I found this really informative and loved the historical background and context. Excellent video.
I played Lax in College and briefly dated (probably too formal for it, hung out, maybe) with a girl who played Women's Lax. I went to a game to root for her once. I caught up with her afterwards and was like "I think you did well, but I have no idea what was happening." I hadn't previously watched Women's lacrosse and didn't realize it's almost a different sport entirely. Fun though. There should be a women's PLL .
Professionals who know the sport’s history, the film’s societal and historical context, the filmmaking process, and the technical side is a great selection.
Loved Paul’s comment about playing goalie. When I switched to goalie, I found my place on the field but also got exponentially better at every other position as well.
@@jurgenludwig8292 also @kera atkins First off you have so many things wrong with this. 1) You said baggaataway which is not at all what natives (at least it my tribe) call lacrosse. 2) Lacrosse was meant to be played as the creators game to honor him.
I was a goalie, so the first thing I noticed with Teen Wolf was how the guy’s form was not good, but then I remembered he had never played before, so it makes sense.
One of my teammates was playing defense and took a shot to the face mask. The mask bent in and the metal actually cut his cheek. He didn't get a concussion though
Used to block shots all the time when I played D, stuff to the head, body, wherever. Only time I think a ref blew the play dead on one was when I took a rip to the family jewels
Kaeden Kuch he also gives off the super left vibe so that might be it too. But he is the founder of the league so his words carry more weight than a players
In Crooked Arrows, the celly was a "smoke dance". It is another traditional native thing. Super fun but actually quite difficult to do, especially when competing at powwows!
Lacrosse looks like a lot of fun and I wish I had kept playing it. I stopped when I was younger cause of a negative season with a coach I was gonna be with for the next two years
Oz leaving early was weak. If anyone on my team in high school would of bailed on us for a chick he just started dating I would of never thought of them the same. 4+ years of commitment thrown away for some girl you’ve been with for a week is terrible loyalty and dedication.
It's crazy seeing a video like this pop up in my YT recommendations. Like for years now subconsciously whenever I saw lacrosse in TV or film I broke down if it's accurate or not and if they're playing good lacrosse. It's interesting to see how lacrosse scenes play out and to see if they're accurate because of just how niche the sport is. Like, if there's a basketball/football/baseball/hockey scene you can usually assume it's gonna be accurate given how widely known those sports are. Lacrosse is the opposite.
Paul is a pro athlete and still calls it a “karaoke” drill. Unless Paul is going to serenade us with his best rendition of “Nothing but a good time” by Poison, let’s call it by the right name. It’s “Carioca”.
I mean the sport was created by native Americans who are a largely disenfranchised group in this country so it kinda makes sense to give attention to those issues
Yeah it makes you wonder, in my experience the people who chirp on this stuff haven't behaved well themselves. Kyle's breakdown's are a little more nuanced or less in your face
I'm late but I never knew what lacrosse was till my senior year. I thought "that looks fun" and somehow made the team. Kyle Harrison was my idol when he was at Johns Hopkins I used the watch the Paul rabil commercials all the time lol
Idk about assuming the announcer is racist for not knowing the player little bit woke I respect you Paul because I think you have good intentions but you can’t go around assuming things are because of racism. I didn’t watch the movie so let me know if I’m wrong.
Jose Jonez the characters role was literally meant to be racist. Like he’s supposed to be an ignorant elitist that knows little about the true backgrounds of the sport.
Christopher Hughes that makes no sense they are identical twins that’s why he got them mixed up he only got the IDENTICAL twins mixed up nobody else regardless of race he would have mixed them up
I’d argue in my school the girl’s and boy’s lacrosse teams are pretty close. We each get half the field, but at the end of practice we would have everyone, boys and girls around the 8 fan, and play 3v3s within the 8 and we have boys and girls just lined up all over the 8 going in and out watching
He is right about the hockey goalie like stance. We have our catcher glove typically our right hand (depending on your strong hand) and our stick and block glove (it’s called that because it is like a giant pad on top of a glove) and we would be in pretty much the same leg position to be ready to do a butterfly to stop incoming pucks on the ice (a butterfly is where we flex our legs into a certain position to use our giant leg pads that go over our knees, chins, and a little bit of the thigh above the knee). I know all this goalie stuff because I am in a hockey (and becoming a lacrosse family because I am right now a defender in Venetia, PA) and I used to be a goalie (at least I tried but didn’t really like it much because I don’t have flexible legs) so yeah.
Crunchy Poptart they dont have much contact and im pretty sure they cant necessarily shoot if another player is in their shot path (thats not verbatim the rule is more complex than that) but there are a lot of rules that prevent most types of contact so its not really necessary for them to use all the same pads.
There’s a girl on my lacrosse team that’s really good at roll dodges. She usually plays midi and when she gets possession of the ball we all know she’s gonna finesse the other teams defense
Can we just all take a moment to enjoy the fact that a professional Lacrosse player (I don’t want to use the term Lax Bro) is praising a movie for ignoring traditional gender roles?
Anyone else find it funny when another race gets offended by something that the other race laughed at because I’m native and I laughed when Paul said “those racist remarks”😂
Fellas, in women's/girl's lax, ALL field players (goalies have different gear) not some as you stated, MUST wear protective goggles plus a mouth guard. In both instances where women are shown they have neither. You guys are the best of the best, you should know the women's game better, even though you play men's lax.
@@willdykema 30:30 "Some women will choose to wear eye wear." He spoke about helmets prior to this. Goggles, or "eyewear" is not a choice. It's mandatory at all levels of play for girls and women.
25:00 my coach makes us do this all the time. whenever somebody gets a highlight on someone else in practice, he gives them a chance to get back. however, never like this, we do it correctly.
Eh i think he just wants to show to the non viewer of lacrosse that the owner of the league has good morals or whatever. Destigmatizes the “lax bro” ig lol
Seems like these are all a little old and not very accurate representation of lacrosse would love to see a newer version that greatly depicts lacrosse. Let’s make it happen and it’ll help grow the game!!!
just a little back round info on the crooked arrows clip being "racist" if I recall correctly there was a pair of twins on the team and that line was meant to showcase tha, and not how native people "look similar because of braids". Also I believe the broadcaster messing that up was to show how bad/unrecognized the team was at that point in the movie. I agree that thist scene did not age well in todays social climate and was a poor choice of lines, but with full context it is apparent that this was not intended to be a racist or culturally assumed remark
This isn't what the "breakdown" is supposed to be... They didn't ask you to analyze a film and it's plot... They asked you to check the accuracy of your profession in the movie. Come on.

I like how Paul got offended at the announcer getting the players mixed up in crooked arrows, even though they’re twins😂
I thought I was the only one that realized that
Announcers should have a list of player numbers, but it’s still reasonable to get players mixed up once in a while.
Fr
I feel like the whole time he was trying to do like a political correctness informational
I like how Paul said awkward celebration like he didn’t run into a wall when he played for the Zardz
finally GQ got lacrosse lets gooooo
Frr

I've been waiting bro
All the lax players knowing fame is coming

Is Paul really diving deep into societal norms of an American Pie movie lol
And Mean Girls
Gotta set a good name for the league haha

Total puss
These guys are so soft

As a goalie, that teen wolf goalies footwork hurt my to watch
Also lol I’ve took too many shots to my head as a goalie and most part it really doesn’t hurt
Bro imma give hella respect to you for playing goalie
I’m goalie too! on a girls team but still basically the same position. That footwork hurt me too.
same here. those bowed knees-OW!
Will P yeah I was like wtf when the coach said to not get hit in the face it’s the shin and a knees
Fun fact in some Native American nations lacrosse is nicknamed the mini war. Because you could die/settle disputes playing the sport
Anything short of murder was allowed
The original name baggataway literally translates to little brother of war

most underrated sport of all time.
I was a goalie, so the first thing I noticed with Teen Wolf was how the guy’s form was not good, but then I remembered he had never played before, so it makes sense.
I play defense I take headshots all the time and never have I once been checked for concussions
I shot a kid in the helmet and they didn’t check him either
One of my teammates was playing defense and took a shot to the face mask. The mask bent in and the metal actually cut his cheek. He didn't get a concussion though
I was thinking the same thing. One game I got hit in the helmet by like three shots and it wasn’t called once.
Used to block shots all the time when I played D, stuff to the head, body, wherever. Only time I think a ref blew the play dead on one was when I took a rip to the family jewels

We see you Paul ✊🏾 glad he brought up the origins of the game and gave respect to the N.A
Why is he trying so hard😂😂 Kyle is chillin but why paul😂
‘Cause Paul is just like that and is very passionate about different things that have impacted the sport.
Paul was trying too hard to give the PLL a good face
I mean he has to
love their banter. you can tell they are homies
Great job guys, anything you post can help grow this amazing sport, don't listen to the haters.
In Crooked Arrows, the celly was a "smoke dance". It is another traditional native thing. Super fun but actually quite difficult to do, especially when competing at powwows!
Crooked arrows is an awesome movie and we need more lacrosse movies
If you were ever wondering the dance he did in crooked arrows is called a smoke dance it was a dance is natives did before we went to war
Remember when Paul was in Crooked Arrows and he had no facial hair and long hair? 😂 😂 😂
The og Paul
Both were suprisingly insightful not only about lacrosse I always love watching rabil but whole episode was cool
"Him walking out was a powerful moment"
*Proceeds to sprint off the field
If teen wolf wasn’t on here I would have been very upset😂. Scott McCall is the 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🔥.
Lacrosse looks like a lot of fun and I wish I had kept playing it. I stopped when I was younger cause of a negative season with a coach I was gonna be with for the next two years
Can we talk about how in crooked arrows they benched lyle Thompson for Tobey?!
I feel like every school has lacrosse but where I live lacrosse is literally not even in existence.
Brendan Moriarty my school doesn’t have a lacrosse team the best athletes usually play football and basketball
some places just don’t play it. gotta play travel then i guess
Oz leaving early was weak. If anyone on my team in high school would of bailed on us for a chick he just started dating I would of never thought of them the same. 4+ years of commitment thrown away for some girl you’ve been with for a week is terrible loyalty and dedication.

It’s a growing sport you’ve got to put the best face on as possible
He built a new league of lacrosse so of course he’s gonna be excited to talk about his sport

29:24 "Not aloud to do that either, that's assault" - Paul Rabil
Allowed*
How many times did Paul bring race into this. I heard him say “natives” like 80 times
Cause lacrosse is a anative game
Because native Americans invented the sport. Whites just made it their own like everything else
D A how ? Stfu you’re just upset white ppl are good at a sport
SHaWn VeriFiEd that’s cool best player in the world is native
Russell Saenz yea .... they made the sport
Anyone else notice the guy with mad tilt on his bucky at 18:45

@@T_money_ honestly i’m glad we don’t, it seems like a lot mainly because the most we can do is lightly push people
There not allowed to do that anyway that’s assault 29:25
Ano come over to Ireland or watch some hurling highlights nothing a good hit won't fix
James Scully true
Assault is implied violence to a person. Actually attacking someone is battery
In Women's Lacrosse in New Zealand, we're not allowed to play if we don't have a mouthguard and a mask/goggles.
it's the same in the u.s., idk where he heard that goggles are optional lmao

nice personalities in these men
i have been waiting for one of these
Crooked Arrows is one of my fav sports movies
Paul no goalies get checked for concussions after taking a shot to the face 😂
How about some comments on hand position when shooting?
Paul really just called the guy racist for confusing the 2 players
They’re apparently identical twins too, I think that was the joke they were going for

Anyone else find it funny when another race gets offended by something that the other race laughed at because I’m native and I laughed when Paul said “those racist remarks”😂
The fact that he said it was racist that he couldnt tell which is which but theyre identical twins 😂😂😂
One thing about the girls scene, no one at a high school level would cradle that low and that loosely. That was just asking to be trailed
I get hit in the face a lot by the ball and the ref never stopped the game😭
