I'll continue the monologue for bookkeeping's sake.

I've finished the first two seasons, and the results are starting to look like I was hoping. I have the min. salary set low to $50k, but superstars should make about $10 million. In the offseason after the second season, one of the northern teams signed a 38 year old free agent to a $15 million/year salary. He probably wasn't worth half of that, but they had the money (well over $100 million in cash reserves).

To me, this is an early sign that all of the established talent in the league will migrate north while the young (and cheap) up-and-comers will rule the south.

I've set revenue sharing to really lop off a large chunk of the northern team's extra income to see if the cash flow to the south would ever help a southern team sign a marquee free agent.

Every southern team sells out every game, which would be fine except they still sell tickets for the same price as a northern team who gets a half filled 95k seat park.

Interesting note... the south has won the first two all-star games and first two world series. Of course, the talent hasn't had a chance to migrate north much, so I expect this to change over time. Though it would be really interesting to see the south dominate with lesser players.
