New guy here,
Is this a good idea?, and old idea, or a flawed dumb idea? but has there ever been a FRANCISE LEAGUE?
While selecting my first team ever from the 70s roster, I found I liked to fill it with Dodgers and Angels, you guessed it, I’m from So Cal.
I was thinking it would be fun if I had to build my team just from Dodgers, or parish the thought, just from Angels, to play other teams built just from Reds, Cubs, you get the idea.
You wouldn’t have to worry about losing players to other teams because they’d be restricted to their own franchise as were you.
12 teams per league, maybe and NL only, or AL only league
Salary cap would level the diamond between the haves and have nots.
If a player played for more than one franchise, three season cards put him on that team. If it’s split 2 seasons to 2, most AB or IP.
I’m sure this idea must have been done before, but I’m so excited about it, I’d even take the Angels.
What does anyone think, Soup
p.s., I'm going to post this in the 70s forum too, I hope that's okay
