Conan O’Brien Rips Lacrosse…Again!


It is no secret that Conan O’Brien likes to dig into lacrosse. The talk show host’s disdain for lacrosse has been well documented over the years. He told Steve Carell he had a creepy lacrosse mustache, tweeted tired jokes about lacrosse players and now he feels the need to chime in about the latest in the “Rap-Lacrosse Wars” which of course pertains to Jay Z’s polarizing lacrosse lyrics.

View his entire monologue from April 30th below. Skip ahead to the 2 minute mark where he mentions lacrosse.

Also, it is important to note that Jay Z has worn lacrosse apparel in past music videos. Jay Z…hypocrite much?

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.

    Ehhh I wouldn’t really say he was ragging on lacrosse per se. He’s also said some positive things about the sport (check out his commencement speech at Dartmouth) and to be completely honest, I found the whole Jay-z/MLL situation about as funny as he did.
