Wanted to revisit this thread due to something I found while going through the just released draft list for my W.P. Kinsella League.
Spotted a kid named Chris Cardin, Jr. among the players eligible for the draft. Now, as it happens, Chris Cardin is the name of a player who was a star in the WPK who retired at the end of the 1967 season. We are now in May of 1969. Chris Cardin is 42 years old. Chris Cardin, Jr. is 18 years old.
Gotta be father and son, right?

But I didn't create this player. He is not part of the process I am using to add relatives of current WPK players to the WPK universe. The game made this guy.

Is this something that happens in OOTP Fictional leagues? This can't just be some crazy coincidence of naming, could it?
If this is built into the game, that makes me so happy.

I'll still be adding relatives, including brothers, cousins, and grandsons, but I love that the game seems to be creating the occasional junior.
