Oh yea, here's a question that I'll throw out there and you can give me any ideas you have:

1) As you can see in the first few posts, I have a space reserved for the "Hall of Heroes & Legends", which is basically the UBA's Hall of Fame. Here are some thoughts I have on that:

- I'd like it to be VERY selective. Right now, I believe there are around 209 players that played in the AL or NL in MLB's HOF. I'd it to be even more strict than that.

I was thinking that, if it opens in 1932, the 20th anniversary of the UBA, if we induct one hitter and one pitcher every year, we'd end up with 144 players by 2009. That seems like a good number to me, but I'm running a test right now and maybe that is too selective. ( I feel bad seeing some guys not in there ) What are your thoughts?

- Secondly, I'd love to get some reader participation for this. If we do one hitter/one pitcher each year, that makes it fairly easy. I can throw up a poll and the top vote-getter gets in. But, do you have a better idea?

2) Putting aside the HOF talk...I have one mini-dynasty written already that will be online soon. But I'm looking for more ideas. I'm looking for ideas that can be turned into a 30-50 post (maybe more, if it's really fun) dynasty that take place in the UBA universe. For example, letters from a player to their family as they make their way to the big leagues...An auto-biography of a player...something like that. (Big Six...help me out here! You always have good ideas for dynasties)

- For this, I'm also opening this up to anyone who wants to do their own UBA mini-dynasty. Not really sure if anyone would be interested in that, but maybe it would be fun to play in someone else's universe for a change. Let me know if you are interested.
