That's how I think of it anyway. Can always import a new Ted Williams (or whomever) into the draft class in some future time period. As for the HOF... it was empty until 1936 :P
Thats a nice way of looking at it. I also just am messing around and some of these historical seasons are so cool once they have been loaded, especially the Negro leagues. Might start a save as some basement dwelling team from the 40s, break the color barrier and become a dynasty. What do you think?
