Arena Lacrosse League

Any news out there about the Arena Lacrosse League starting up in 2008?

No news per what I could dig up in Google.

I noticed a thread on wingszone speculating on the notion that MLL might want to start up an indoor league if NLL shuts down the season. Given the sponsor-backed battle that already lights the lacrosse sky, I wouldn't be surprised. I do tend to wonder if NLL could survive a shutdown, since their main problem is the number of truly viable markets (i.e. markets not having to puff up their attendance numbers). It strikes a chord with me that the only dailies that seem to keep updates about the possible lockout are Canadian.
