The LYNX Football League is a fantasy football league owner, ran and commissioned by the owner of UnitardZ Productions, Zachary Serra, also known as The Zack Hardy. For the first two years, the LYNX league was held under public lobby, meaning that it was open to all fantasy competitors. In 2016, the league switched to a private lobby after a hiatus during the 2015-2016 NFL season, and switched from CBS Fantasy to ESPN Fantasy, and switched to a seven team league.
== History ==
=== Inaugural Season (2013) ===
Out of the current teams in the Lynx Football League, Zachary Serra was the only member of the inaugural season of the Lynx Football League. During the inaugural season of the Lynx Football League, the league was held listed as a public lobby, meaning that the league was filled up within two days, making it a publicly successful inaugural league. During the 2013-2014 NFL regular season, the Lynx Football League was held using the CBS Sports Fantasy system. This season was also the only time in the league's history that it was held under PPR (points per reception) league rules. The winner of the league's first inaugural championship game was "Spurt Mahgurt" who defeated "49ergoldminer" (owned by Zachary Serra) 112-97.
=== Final Season as Public Lobby (2014) ===
The final season that the Lynx Football League was held under the public lobby, Zachary Serra failed to make the post-season, leaving "London Bullfrogs" to defeat "New Jersey Barriers" in the second league championship game.
=== Hiatus (2015-2016) ===
During the 2015-2016 NFL regular season, the Lynx Football League took a year off, as the owner Zachary Serra, requested not to take part in fantasy football for the season.
=== Return, Private Lobby and Fantasy Cup Era (2016-present) ===
The LYNX Football League returned with a seven-team format and a new championship game called the Fantasy Cup. Zachary Serra resumed his duties as the owner, commissioner and show-runner. At the end of the regular season, Jessica Solnik (Team HollyWood) ended up winning the Eastern Division, with Zachary Schaffner (Team Schaffner) earning the playoff wildcard spot. Jordan Layman (Team Layman) would win the Western Division, with Tristen Ciarlo (Team Harambe Hungry Guerillas) earning a wildcard spot. In the Fantasy Cup (the third annual) to determine the winner of the Spalding Ball, Jessica Solnik and Jordan Layman would face off to become the second ever recipient of the Spalding Ball. This was the most recent season of the Lynx Football League, with no further season taking place as of 2020.
