Leagues is not, in fact, a new game.
I've been running a version of it for years — with friends, family, colleagues. Its popularity and longevity seem to rest on three things: simplicity, accessibility, and the sheer unpredictability of the Premier League.
At times joyous, at others maddening. It has a way of snaring people as they chase the strategy that will finally outfox everyone else.
A year or two into retirement, I teamed up with three sharp, like-minded people — Ed, Liga, and Roger — who had the know-how to bring it to a wider audience. Much of what they do goes directly over my head. I'm eternally grateful.
We hope you'll get as many years of fun out of it as we have. Love and happiness to you.
