Following the lead of Augusta National, the HHSFFL has formally invited its first two female members into the league and received verbal commitments from both invitees. While a few loose ends remain the paperwork still needs to be finalized, the HHSFFL is considering this a done deal. The HHSFFL Commissioner just gave an early morning press conference to a packed house (seen above).
This move has been supported by most and is thought to be long overdue. However, there are always a few staunch, "old school" individuals who are resistant to change. Check out the gritty, behind the scenes footage below of four league owners voicing their frustrations to the HHSFFL Commissioner.
These dissenting opinions seem to be in the vast minority, however. In an internet poll over the last 36 hours, 18% of fans think this is a giant leap forward, while only 6% are opposed to this move. 76% of voters said they simply just "don't give a shit."
Most HHSFFL fans in the guidance region have been strong supporters of the long-establish, though often irrelevant Sport of Kings. In terms of fan support and financial backing, this development could not have come at a worse time. After boasting a winning record and making the playoffs for the first time, Sport of Kings were looking forward to a year of high attendance and record breaking merchandise sales. However, with an expansion franchise in the same region its not yet clear as to whether or not there is enough of a fan base to support both teams. I suppose the only advice I could give to either franchise comes in the words of the late, great Al Davis..."Just win, Baby!"
