    The topic that I chose was the 2004 NBA Detroit Pistons & Indiana Pacers brawl; it was also known as the Malice at the Palace which occurred on November 19, 2004. The reason why I picked this event is because it changed the history of the NBA, and it also made a deep impact on the teams, players, and their fans; it also caused the organization to lay down different ground rules, while it also lead to a security increase at the arenas for the safety of the players and the fans while also limiting the use of alcohol. Sources say that this brawl still remains as “the most infamous brawl in NBA history;” in my opinion, any short brawl in the NBA will never top the Malice at the Palace because there have not been any brutal fights these past seasons,…

    Watching the ball leave my teammate’s stick, fly through the air, and land in my stick was only the beginning of my love for lacrosse. Now, every time I shoot the ball and it strikes the back of the net, I remember the first time I played lacrosse and I am extremely grateful for it. I knew from the moment I picked up a stick, that I had a future and I would need to work extremely hard to become the best player I could be. Although I was not able to catch or throw my first time practicing, I kept pushing myself and evolved into the strong player I am today.
