One date, and it is not a game
The 2026 calendar for this league contains a banquet and nothing else: Saturday 9 May, upstairs at a restaurant on Willard Street in Quincy, cocktails at six, dinner at seven, programme shortly after, fifty dollars a seat.
There are no fixtures, because play is suspended.
The league's stated plan is to return to the field in 2027.
A season entered once on a High Cheese league page dates itself into every player's own calendar, and in a year with no season the events do the same job -- which is how a suspended league keeps five franchises' worth of men in the same room.
