for a network to give it a higher profile.

eg.
Pro Lacrosse- Strong big market following, fast growing prep sport, seen as a potential replacement to football(if all the drastic scenarios come to fruition). Solid college sport as well with a nice championship weekend around Memorial Day.

This is easy.... esports. In fact, I predict in 20 years it will overtake traditional sports. It's already huge in Asia and Europe. It's just a matter of time before it gets picked up nationally in the US. You already have gamers making millions of dollars in competition. Just follow the money.... I watched a stream the other night that had 150,000 viewers, and it wasn't even that popular of a game.

lacrosse is a cool sport and all but it's not that great to watch honestly. i still have an issue with its rules that leave players standing and waiting for play to move to their side of the field.
