The MAL continues to bounce back and forth between 6 and 8 teams over the next 19 years, finally ending its run in '51 with an 8 team field. I'm thinking it might be interesting to add the 4 most "popular" teams from 1925 to 1951 and organize a 12 team - 2 division MAL starting in 1952.

I would probably take over one of the teams (hopefully the Akron Yankees?) and then report on my attempt to make them the MAL juggernauts.

Two other things;

(1) During the 3 years the league closed for WW2, I thought it would be a good idea to post bios of the 20 MAL players who gave their lives during that conflict, and

(2) Between 1951 and 1952, I would write up a few biographies for the best players in the MAL Replay - maybe the Hall of Fame inductees.

Thoughts?
I think it would be cool for you to continue it after it officially ended with one of the teams in the league. There would be a ton of history in the league and you'd be able to create more as you go. The bios in both cases would be really cool as well.
