I wouldn't say that it's too ambitious to start with a promotion/relegation concept. What I would suggest is to keep things small to start with. We all want to be a part of massive, sprawling leagues, but I think that can be a trap for first-time commissioners who don't yet know what lies ahead of them work and responsibility-wise.

My suggestion would be to roll with your concept but keep the inital number of teams in each league to a small, manageable number. Spend at least a few months of real world time getting a feel for your new role and everything it entails. At the end of that time, assess your situation. Are you enjoying yourself? Do you feel you can take on more? If so, embark on a modest expansion and repeat the process. If at any time you feel like you might be losing enthusiasm due to the workload, it's time to halt your expansion efforts. Remember, at the end of the day this needs to be fun for you. If you're not enjoying yourself, your owners won't be enjoying themselves either.
