Wow...that could be a league in itself...

Just curious -- which database do you use? Thanks ...
You're right, AZ. Placing the New York teams and Boston in the same division made the most sense, both in terms of rivalry and geography. As NYY #23 pointed out, New Yorkers of one generation will naturally find the Red Sox-Yankees rivalry the most intriguing, while their parents and grandparents might consider the contests between the three New York teams to be more interesting. Who knows; West Coast fans might get into the Dodgers-Giants rivalry even more.

As for the database, I'm using the one that came preloaded with v8. Lahman, I believe.
