Could you be a bit more specific. If you are refering to the lax mag on the Men's Collegiate Lacrosse Association page it is because it is spam. IMO it is put in there not to add anything to the article but just to advertise it.

Starting with the 2008 season, a magazine will be available by subscription that will be dedicated to covering the MCLA, its games, players, coaches, and fans. MCLA The Lax Mag will be offered 6 times during the season and once in the fall.

It reads like an ad, especially when you put it near the the top of the article and if I recall correctly the link was placed at the top of the external links. You may want to read this Wikipedia:SPAM. Smith03 (talk) 05:15, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

So what if it reads like an ad. Who made you sole keeper of the MCLA ? The mag is dedicated to the league -- why shouldn't it be listed on the page? User:67.160.213.2

for the reasons I gave below. Why do you keep putting this back in? Do you profit from the magazine? Smith03 (talk) 23:23, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

NO -- the league profits both financially and growth. i'll go all night. you want to help the league or just be wikipedia nazi -- you don't think collegelax.us profits? User:67.160.213.2

Well we can remove collegelax.us as well Smith03 (talk) 21:56, 23 January 2008 (UTC) You may want to read Wikipedia:No personal attacks as well. Are you User:Agentogden? Smith03 (talk) 22:23, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

You CAN remove Collegelax, but you haven't. I really don't see the problem with listing the magazine as part of the description of the MCLA. For what reason would you not want people to know that the league has a magazine dedicated to it? User:67.160.213.2

You can also remove Collegelax if you want to. The problem is as I stated below it is spam. I find it hard to believe you do not have anything to do with the magazine when the only edits you have made under this account have been to re insert the same spam message. if this magazine was free I would not care but it clearly is an attempt to use wikipedia to advertise for a magazine. I can keep reverting just as much as you can. Smith03 (talk) 04:12, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
