Again one sport makes over a billion dollars and the other loses money. And football makes more money than both of them. Just a fact.

And I believe that both sports (lacrosse and ice hockey) have different rule sets for boys and girls on the high school level as well.

Even with different rule sets, different jumping abilities of the players, and different size balls, NCAA women's basketball and NCAA men's basketball are recognizable as being the same game.

At least to some visitors from Mars who never observed any basketball games played at any level.

They are not officiated the same, even at the high school level. So not sure I agree.

Agree, but it's still the same basic game.

Not apples and oranges, but Red Delicious Apples and Granny Smith Apples.
