Did anybody see the Baltimore/Long Island championship game? I watched a good bit of it, and it was my first prolonged exposure to the league. It looked to me like they were just beating the snot out of each other. Was this pretty typical of the level of play throughout the season? I'm sure the refs are told to let them play and not be too quick to throw the flag. But the way it looked from my couch (I know, great view) was that you had to commit a felony to get a personal foul called on you.

Also, there was a lot of "free hand" contact on the wrap-around checks. Is this allowed, or was it just part of the "let them play" officiating?

Chuck
