The solution here is obvious.  Add Men's Lacrosse.  It is the fastest growing team sport in America and a sport of the future.  I've never played the game and have only admired it from afar until recently.  We got our 8 year old to play the sport and she's taken to it.  I'm even learning to catch and throw the ball with her.

What, are you trying to get them to give triple points for ice hockey and rifle?  Maybe that's what would happen if Stanford took on yet another sport.

Hmm.... I would expect, as a team sport, the e-sports are much faster growing than lacrosse.  Possibly before lacrosse makes it to the Olympics as even a demonstration sport, ESPN will dump it in favor of e-sports, so e-sports will get the triple points in this crassly commercial advertisement.  It wouldn't even have to be an NCAA sport.

I'm not knocking lacrosse as a physical sport, just questioning the motive behind its bias in this "award".
