I don't care one way or the other,but would like to know how the MLL treats the Chicago Machine and the Ohio Machine. Does the MLL consider them one franchise two cities or two different franchise. any info or sources from the team or league would be great.

They are not the same franchise. The Chicago Machine moved to Rochester New York to become the new Rochester Rattlers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.44.76.95 (talk) 17:18, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Chicago Machine to Ohio ?[edit]

I think the Ohio Machine are a different franchise that took the name and colors of the former Chicago team. The Ohio Machine do not claim the records of the Chicago team and say they began in 2012. Media Guide. There is some weird connection between the teams Inside Lacrosse story, but the announcement in IL in 2011 doesn't mention it. Maybe some front office guys were both in Chicago and Ohio? I can't find anything on who owns the Ohio Machine. Are they a New Balance team? There are references in the two articles to MLL press releases saying the franchise are the same, but they don't include links. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 15:33, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
