...anyway ... here is my new idea I have been mulling over. For MLB The Show, I think I want to create real college players in a minor league using the default names that are in Boog's "vocabulary" for the team names. Kinda like the DSL, what if the majors threw some money at developing the lost players of college baseball? I have been playing the heck out of MVP Baseball 07, but Mike Patrick and those graphics are really running stale for me too

I could use help naming my leagues ?? do i call them conferences? 150 teams isn't too bad when it is only 26 on each team. I plan on using a 5 man rotation, and I am not using the DH.



where was I? oh yeah, what should i name my leagues?
