We're trying it out. For fun!

About
Welcome to... our first season of the Holiday Hoops League.
We haven't done fantasy basketball for a long time, since NIBL times. (gasp) The NBA is pretty popular now, and it's a nice filler between fantasy football and baseball. So, we're giving it a shot.
H2L is part of the williamt global fantasy-industrial complex.

Wrap
Mon Apr 1, 2019 — that's a wrap.
Congrats to winner (weener?) TY on a great season and a killer team. Worthy!
We're still a Bambi league (wobbly legs, tenuous existence), but this was a good start.
Two big issues (imho): 1) recruiting, and 2) max games during the week. We may have to try moving to ESPN for #2 there. We'll see.
thanks... yow, bill
PS - thanks to Bootstrap for the website sugar, Jumbotron template
Our champion wins the coveted Holiday Hoops Medal of Victory!
