Almost always start with a random minor league team a season or 2 before an expansion year. (ie 1975 for 1977), then take over the Expansion team before expansion, see how long it takes before building a winner.
I find the game too easy at times, and eventually every franchise i start with will win a championship. (some within 3 years).
I find it boring winning all the time. Have more fun trying to keep a struggling team afloat, reach .500.
