Honored to have you in the film, JoJo.
Great respect. Thank you for your work with this. It truly is good for the soul, just a stick a ball and a wall. 🙏🙌🤝💪
Amazing, I never knew lacrosse was Native American and had so much history and depth to it. Love from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️
this is a great supplement to a Lacrosse unit in physical education classes, especially when teaching remotely! Thank you for making this documentary to show the importance of tradition
This is such a great resource about lacrosse, I love being able to find information that comes from the Native people who play. I will have to show this to my teacher!
Beautiful history and craftsmanship!

I've got to figure you have no idea how disresectful and ignorant your comment is. You don't always have to make a comment, particularly when you know nothing about the subject at hand.

@@satman1w It's not about politial correctness and similar shit, my friend, it's about ignorance and disrespect. Did you even watch the video? Do know anything about the Medicine Game, the spiritual aspect of the Creator's game, what the stick that you refer to as a pooper scooper represents? The stick that the Natives bury with their dead you're going to call a pooper scooper. Can you see the ignorance (you obviously don't understand what that stick means) and disrespect there, or did you think your dog shit comment was so clever you just couldn't resist?
