I was wondering, those people that play historical leagues, why there isn't a single 'ultimate' download for historical play. (For that matter why it didn't ship with the game!)

I'm thinking something along the lines of:

Correct Team Changes year by year (or at least instructions - including AAA)
Logos/Stadiums that are ERA-appropriate
Correct Schedules (even if need importing every season)
Accurate ERA adjustment (3rd party calculator?)
Photos/Images for all real players.
Renewable fictional (era-appropriate) images for fictional players.
Database for relatively accurate imports
Recommended player creation modifiers for specific eras.

I am aware many of these exist in isolation, but I am looking for something similar to the 'all-in-one' install for MLB 2005.

Is it possible for something like this to be created?

If so, what would you recommend I use for each?

(It is my intention that if I can get something acceptable together I might look at hosting it somewhere).
