Season starts tomorrow, yip-pie

Not quite sure if that’s how you’d spell yip-pie. Not quite sure that I care. I do know, however, that the basketball season starts tomorrow and it’s about darn time.
I enjoy football. I really do. But there just comes a point when the following two truths become too evident to ignore:
1) I prefer basketball in general. It’s a better game and it’s more competitive.
2) It’s no longer warm enough to go outside…unless it involves golf, which is worthwhile provided there’s no snow on the ground.
So tomorrow morning, at 8 a.m. sharp, I will probably be on the golf course. HOWEVER, at 6 a.m. I will post 10 key questions that will be answered during the season. If you can answer them, or you think you know what the answer will be, post it here.
We have a number of exciting additions to our coverage this season that you’ve never seen before. Primarily, I’ll be on RNN every week discussing girls hoops in the area. We’ll have features on teams and players, not to mention analysis of games and playoff matchups. There’s more to share on the future of LoHud basketball and TV, but we’ll leave that for another day.

i don’t think there’s a hyphen, but why not use “hooray” instead? then you don’t have to worry.
