Random Ballpark Assignment

Don't get me wrong - Old League Park is a sentimental favorite of mine: both because I'm a Clevelander, and also because my Grandfather used to work the scoreboard there. Also, it makes sense to have a "generic" (no modifiers) stadium as a default. But ...

Just as we have the ability to randomly assign cities to our teams upon league creation, it would ne nice if we had the ability to randomly assign stadiums from a pre-selected a pool.

This would include a button from the league setup screen that would creat a small window listing all of the stadiums on file. Add the ability to Ctrl-click on all the stadiums that you'd want in your league, and then the option to "maximize diversity," which would make sure that each stadium was assigned the same number of times before making one avaiable for assignment again, and that would finish off this nice, simple feature.

This wouldn't be revolutionary, and likely wouldn't be used by historical simmers, but it would add some extra flavor to fictional leagues.

Any thoughts?
