If someone in the East wants to get us started that would be great thanks

Does home ballpark have to be from one of the eras assigned? For example, I have Boston db, pre, and post. Could I choose a Fenway from the expansion era?

Your ballpark does need to come from the era as well as the team, so Beantown can take Fenway 41 or 57, but not from an expansion year..

I will have a team loaded by early tomorrow morning at the latest...

question on Paige he is on Cleveland can I use any card?

Beantown would also be able to choose Fenway '46, correct?

And I would expect Beantown also has available the Boston Braves parks (South End Grounds '11, Braves Field '20, and Braves Field '41) and the Milwaukee Braves park (County Stadium '57). There's more variety in that group than in the Gateway team, which has the problem of the Browns and Cardinals who played in pretty much the same park (Sportsman's). But that's part of why I really like these franchise themes -- really puts in some constraints.

Thanks for the clarification. Once the league is established, it's alot easier to drop and add player mistakes than to drop and add ballpark mistakes!

1.) The Tallguy747, you can use Fenway 1946.. no problem

2.) Warrenbob, I addressed the Satchell paige question earlier in the thread on a 9/30 posting:

"Also we are probably not going to use the NEL Players for this league so, the Indians can use the Satchell Paige card - 1948 CLE Post, but not his NEL card."
