Things that nobody reads in America today:
The online legal mumbo jumbo before you check the little "I Agree" box.
Kate Upton's resume.
Major League Baseball's "Pace of Play Procedures."
Not that baseball games don't have a pace. They do: snails escaping a freezer.
It's clear no MLB player or umpire has ever read the procedures, or else how do you explain what I witnessed Sunday, when I sat down to do something really stupid -- watch an entire televised MLB game without the aid of a DVR?

Kalamazoo College (D3 MI) Adds Men's and Women's Lacrosse
Tuesday, June 26, 2012
Kalamazoo College officials announced Wednesday that Emilia Ward has been appointed head coach of the first women's varsity lacrosse team in the College's history. Women's lacrosse will continue to compete as a club sport in 2012-13 before taking the field as a varsity sport in the spring of the 2013-14 academic year.
Women's lacrosse will be the first new varsity sport at Kalamazoo College since 1991, when women's golf was added. A men's varsity lacrosse program is scheduled to take the field in spring 2015. Both teams will play on Kalamazoo College's newly renovated athletics fields due to open this fall.

MLL Eyeing South Florida Franchise
Wednesday, June 20, 2012
On the surface, the Major League Lacrosse (MLL) All-Star Game at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton on Saturday, June 30 will serve as a showcase of top players from franchises throughout other parts of the country.
But on closer and deeper scrutiny, the attraction at 7:30 p.m. at the Owls' new football stadium could be a prelude to another pro sports team in South Florida.
While it is not being officially called a "test market" event, the MLL will be monitoring the game to determine whether Boca Raton will receive an expansion franchise to start play in 2014.
According to insidelacrosse.com, the southeast United States is being strongly looked at by MLL, and cities topping the list of franchise possibilities include Boca Raton, Atlanta and Dallas.

Is Lacrosse on the Cusp of a Division I Sponsorship Explosion?
Tuesday, June 05, 2012
John Paul huddled with his players after they had just defeated Michigan State in last year's club lacrosse regular-season finale. Paul, a University of Michigan alum and former athletics administrator who over 14 years built arguably the most successful club lacrosse program in the nation, had an announcement to make. The Wolverines were making the jump to Division I, beginning with the 2012 season.
Shocked silence.
Fast-forward 12 months, and the shock lingers. The team, which lost one game in 59 while capturing three consecutive club lacrosse national championships between 2008 and 2010, tasted victory only once this season, but its Division I presence has nonetheless sent reverberations throughout collegiate lacrosse. No BCS school had launched a varsity men's lacrosse program since Notre Dame did so in 1981. "A lot of people are calling us the biggest story in the game in 30 years," Paul says, "which is nice of them to put a little bit more pressure on our backs."
