Display Minor League Affiliations

So far I haven't seen any major errors, but have seen a lot of minor things that I think could be worked on.

Here is the first one.

I issues with this in 2006 and it's still a problem for me in 2007.

I see no easy way of telling which major league team each of the minor league teams are associated with. So far I've been using a trick someone mentioned for 2006 and using the major league nickname and abbreviation for all their minor league teams.

To solve this I think OOTP should always put the abbreviation next to the name of each minor league teams when it is displayed.

IIRC, the major league team's logo is displayed on the right hand side of the header, in the various minor league team pages.

Now that you mention it, I have seen the logo on the minor league team pages, but I think it needs to be displayed before that.

For example. If I select my AAA league from the "Select League" in the upper left and look at the "AAA Teams" in the menu, I only get the city and nick name. To figure out which team is related to each of the ML teams I have to go to each team. I have the same problem if I look at the AAA standings.

Also, if I go to the SiON home page and choose AAA. On that page it shows the AAA standings, but again I have to choose each team to see which ML team that are affiliated with.

I got so annoyed with this that I change all of the affiliates' names (not cities) to match the parent clubs'.

You can just go to the team page, on the team menu you'll see an affiliates button. Just click on it and it shows you all of the team affiliates and you can choose which one to go to.
