What are your thoughts on the new website?

www.mnswarm.com

i said team new but i think the video and media is most important cause of what he said^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Some video would be good. And maybe some features about some of the other players in the league.

If you can get the rights, more sections from "War on the Floor", the NLL DVD featuing the greats, John Grant Jr., Paul and Gary Gait, John Tavares, etc...

Love the site!

For now, the site needs to expose MN to lacrosse. AS previous posters have mentioned, video clips of NLL action is probably the best way to go. In another month, or so, when the draft nears, they should do a lot of player profiles of the people the team might select.

Thanks for the input! There are several videos in the multimedia section you can check out.

Lacrosse Videos!!!

Thanks manager! That is the ticket for the fans not in the know!

I'd like to see some lacrosse video games, that'd be pretty cool, though i'm not saying it'd be less enjoyable without them, it'd make things a little more interesting.

that would b great if they had some games. It would just give me one more reason to come to this site.

we need some games like maybe the one ahaheim's has or lax pacman (thanks for the idea elephauntese)

im lovin the videos they have allready the hits and goals ones...itd be great if they made a best goals and hits videos for just minnesota over the course of the season or weekly highlights sumthin along those lines

You should put a video in were u can listen and have players show you the game of lacrosse. ya know like a slow motion deal were its a step by step procces being explained to you so Minnesotains(and wisconsinites) can understand the game. i think the lacrosse team will get a lot of support. especcially with hockey on hold. a lot of the Minnesota Wild fans will join the MN swarm fan base including me. I think it would be good to feature a player a week on the site so fans can get to know the players. Minnesotat or Wisconsin for that matter has never had a lacrosse team so we really don't know the rules or the players for the MN swarm.


other then that i love the site.

we definitely need some player bios.

This isn't a suggestion, its a kudos. I want to say to the webteam of the Swarm that they are doing an awesome job. I, myself, am a web designer and I know how hard doing updates in a timely fashion can be. But when I got home from the exhibition game on Dec. 10, they already had pictures and a writeup online. I only live like 20 min. from the Excel.. Great job guys!! I know it's not easy!! It's nice to know now that when there is an away game that we cant see or hear, we can just keep our eye on the website that night to find out. Great job!!

We could use some standings and stats for the Swarm and the league. I looked everywhere and couldn't find a link to the standings or boxscores to the past games. Am I missing something?

same here. I was looking for some tats for the pre season games but could find none.

stats*

Stats would be great

MNSWARMANGER I have a few requests for the website. First: The pictures at the shop are cool! but could you put the back of the jersey with a number on it. Second: I don't know if this is possible but for games could you have a mini vision like the MLB does for instance when the twins swiched to victory sports one I subscribed to a online T.V thing it was like five bucks or something so I could watch some games. Third: Could we have a few games on this site or something like that. I love your site I come to it everyday thanks.

give video player bios
highlight reels.

There is already a Playstation 2 Lacrosse Video Game. I've seen it many times on Ebay for auction. I still need to pick it up.

I agree with everyone else to get to know the players. I think the video that was added is awesome. I really like the website that Minnesota has.

One suggestion which I have no idea whether its possible is having an online chat. I've seen it say via MSN. You have a person asking questions to a player. You can have people email in their questions before hand or during while having a moderator filter out anything unnecessary. It offers a way to create dialogue directly between the fans and players. You can keep the transcripts online for others to see or if fans weren't able to participate.

Just a suggestion. But otherwise looks great!

Whats the name of the video game????

It's not a PS2 game but there is one, made a couple years ago for PS1, it is called Blast Lacrosse, worth the money if you can get it for a low price on Ebay like I did,

My mistake. It is a PS1 game Blast Lacrosse. There are some rumours though that Electronic Arts or other video game companies are thinking of coming out with something new in the future.

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!

If they can make a Rugby game, why not a lacrosse game right?

I hope so (vancouver won't be in it...YES)

they should make a game for PS3 and Xbox 2

That woudl be sweet!! Gonna check into seeing if i can get Blast Lacrosse.

I like the mnswarm.com web site. One addition I would like to see added to the Team Roster page is what equipment a player uses. For instance I want to know what type of stick a player uses. Do offensive players favor a particular brand/model? Is there a league rule about the custom stringing? From my vantage point they all look the same. Go Swarm!!!

I think that is a great idea. Just like what they did with the wild in the programmes. They could also talk about how they prepare for the match.

It'd also be cool to be able to create our own polls in more than just "season tickets" , or u could just change it to "polls" because really right now that's all that's in there
