Dethroned, in the league's own word
No founding year or list of champions is published. What the league does record is a dynasty ending: for the first time in years the Angels are not top of the standings.
An eight-word aside is the entire published history of this league, and it is more informative than most founding dates, because it says who has been winning and for how long.
The 2024 Outstanding Team Players are also kept, which is two seasons of named individuals.
Every season played on High Cheese is kept as standings, box scores and rosters together, so a run at the top is a record rather than a recollection.
