Big thumbs up for this!
I imagine that MLB might have reservations about this, as they do provide a license to Markus, but it is quite historical, and I for one think that the true spirit of rivalry should be adopted into the game somehow.
Yankees-Mets, Cubs-White Sox, Cubs-Cards, Red Sox-Yankees, Giants-Dodgers, you name it, those rivalries have existed for years, and they won't go away ever.
Brawls, heck, even fan interference is part of these histories. There's no way to say it doesn't have legitimacy.
I do think that some of the elements of this would be difficult to incorporate, but I do think it's worth investing in some of the parts that could be added.
Great idea indeed.
