Someone slap me.. For the life of me i had always thought that after 1871 that the Cubs did not come back until 1876. Never knew that they came back in 1874. Also interesting that 23rd St Grounds is also on the near south side. That could have made the Cubs the original Southside Hitmen.
When i get the game next week a historical league will be my 1st league. might even make it an RD league.

Well Chicago did have a little fire back in 1871.
I think its a little bit of a debate of whether the Cubs and Braves go back to 1871 or 1876. Not sure what MLB says. I guess its a question of whether you think the National League was a new league with new teams or a new league with established teams moving to the new league from the National Association.

Why are the Nationals underlined? Whats up with the underscore between Dark & Blues?
I posted your other SS in the bug forums about it. Also I take it OOTP doesn't have the pre 1900 logos?

The underline might be because he was either controlling or acting as manager for Washington or it may be the last team he viewed.
I don't think the underscore is a bug. I believe it just comes from the way the nicknames in the teams cash are listed. You can change it and it should show up in expansion to whatever you change it to. But keep in mind that it doesn't seem that you can change the way the game creates a historical league.
