2006 Edmonton Rush Season
The Edmonton Rush are a lacrosse team based in Edmonton, Alberta playing in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). The 2006 season was the Rush's inaugural season.
After starting the season 0-6, the Rush finally won their first-ever game, beating their provincial rivals the Calgary Roughnecks in Calgary. That was the high point of the season for the Rush, who didn't win again until the 2007 season.
Famous quotes containing the words rush and/or season:
“Is this then a touch? quivering me to a new identity,
Flames and ether making a rush for my veins,
Treacherous tip of me reaching and crowding to help them,
My flesh and blood playing out lightning to strike what is hardly
different from myself,
On all sides prurient provokers stiffening my limbs,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime,
Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
