The NLL likes these crazy x-ending names. So "x-treme".

I saw when the Portland named their team the Lumberjax, part of the reason for the "x" was how it made the team name's ending similar to "lax". For Shamrox, I have no idea why, other than they think its cool. It's too bad, because I like the name "Shamrocks", as to me its a traditional lacrosse name and kind of a tribute to the Victoria Shamrocks...
