Brine Partners with MLL

(I'm scooping just about everyone here after getting a memo from the commish's office.) In a not so surprising announcement, Brine is partnering with the MLL and players will be allowed to use either company's heads and handles this coming season. Also, four teams are going to wear Brine equipment (pads, etc.). Interesting development, but really not surprising considering New Balance's purchase of Brine last fall. I believe many players will be excited about the chance to use different heads. I imagine Sonny will post the official release soon, but like I said, I wanted to scoop someone for once . . .

Does anybody know what four teams will be Brine equipment users? Maybe 2 in the East and 2 in the West?

It was only a matter of time before Brine was in the MLL. Since NB/Warrior bought out Brine it seems only natural that their products would be used this year. Keeping all of the lax equipment under one roof guarantees that someone will make more money... maybe the players?!?... nahhhhh.
