Working on setting up a league to pit the best teams from each current franchise against each other (so each team has it's own league where all it's incarnations will only play each other). Pulled up a list of year-by-year records for each team to get the 30 best winning percentages (or World Series winners), with certain exceptions (custom league only allows teams from 1901, so nothing prior to that made the cut; and some teams haven't been in existence long enough to have 30 teams, so they basically get all their incarnations included). Currently going through to edit each teams name to include the year (so I don't just have 30 teams that say New York Yankees; but rather say New York Yankees 1927 / 1998 / etc.

(minor quibble with the custom league setup - the drop-down box to select the teams isn't always in the same order; so sometimes it has teams alphabetically, others it lists American league first, then National. Can this be defaulted to just list alphabetically regardless of league. Would just make it easier to find the team quicker.)

Anyway - team leagues will be 1 division / 30 teams, playing 162 game schedule. Top 4 teams make the playoffs - 7 game division series, followed by 7 game world series). I figure I'll take the winner from each league and put them all into a subsequent league to fight it out for the best team of all time.
