Introducing the NLL Cup

[Jer15]

For some reason, the National Lacrosse League decided to introduce a new trophy today for their league championship.

 

Personally, I didn't love the previous one but this one is way too gimmicky to me. It looks like they made a Lombardi size trophy (which they admit to in the article) but didn't want to get away from the inscriptions like the Stanley Cup (or maybe more appropriately, the summer equivalent, the Mann Cup). I believe it is supposed to resemble the star in the league logo. 

 

There's an interactive site to see the new trophy here.

Doesn't look too bad. I'm sure we'll see them add another ring or simply redesign it again when they get to that point.

Oh yeah, no doubt.

In looking at it, it honestly doesn't look like it was all that well fabricated.  I see (at least what I perceive to be) flaws in it.  But it's a symbol.  It's not something I'd call a "cup," but it's a symbol.
