I just wanted to also say good luck and congrats for being on the HOF ballot this year. I did have a general question about your league, how did you come up with the team names and cities, was it all just random? I ask because I have always wanted to start a fictional league but have had trouble deciding which teams to stick with or change.

Thank you.
I started and restarted a ton, with the goal to have one randomly generated team name jump out at me, as the franchise I would stake over, and the Iron Pigs won

It was a combo of name and logo really.
After that I took the teams and cities the game created and ran with it. I've put a crap ton of hours scouring the net for logos and images to create uni's, hats and what not and to be honest it's been half the fun of playing so far.
I would argue that if I did it over again I'd sim a period of time but then I think about what I'd have missed in these first four seasons and I am ok with it. I say that because in reading Orcin's replay (A MUST for anyone thinking of doing this) the winter and free agency, and arbitration stuff he makes so damn fun and interesting, I am just not entering that phase of my league and really looking forward to it.
