Major League Lacrosse
Hey Jcatherine7, The reason that Lacrosse is termed as a Semi-Professional sport, is not because of how seriously people take the sport, it lies in the fact that the players do not make enough money to entirely live off of it. The literal definition of semi-professional is "receiving payment for an activity but not relying entirely on it for a living." The listed salaries are there according to this source by the Wall Street Journal: Wikipedia is built off of reliable sources, not just whatever a passing person thinks something should be. If you can find a reliable source that contradicts what the Wall Street Journal has to say about their semi-professionalism (or lack there of), that can be added in, otherwise it is considered Original Research. Additionally, when commenting on someones userpage, please use the "new section" button, don't just write something above everything else. Jcmcc (Talk) 23:13, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
