Thanks Gern44 for the logo; pretty neat looking.

Davwms, thanks for the history note. I actually was not aware of anything historical with the league.

I am attempting to create a fictional MLB League, with fictional players, that starts out in 1900. The charter teams will be teams from the states that make up most or close to the original 13 colonies.

As of now, my charter teams are:

Albany Admirals
Baltimore Badgers
Buffalo Browns
Cambridge Cavalry
Charleston Chiefs
Durham Ducks
Newport Navigators
Plymouth Pilgrims
Portsmouth Pirates
Raleigh Raiders
Richmond Rebels
Wilmington Wildcats

My "plan" is to run the league/division until around 1910 and then merge a Pioneer League/Division of another 12 teams which will include the states West of the charter league states, mainly Midwest states. This is when I plan to start playing a World Series.

Somewhere later on, I'll create a Western or "Oregon Trail" League/Division that will merge into the Colonial & Pioneer League that will help add some western states into the mix, which will help mimic the real MLB three Division setup. Basicaly, the league will grow as the US did with the settlers traveling West.
