The Team Icon concept is now going strong in the 1990s and 1970s so I thought we could start one in the 1940s. If you're new to the concept basically you can only draft players who played for your team at some point in their career. If a player played for your team only you automatically are assigned that player.

I have listed the initial draft standings with the win totals from 1946-1955. The first 12 teams to get a sign up will be the ones we use and then the defunct teams will work like the defunct teams in the original Icon.  Having only 12 teams will help with the relatively low movement from team to team during this era.

Beirnej1 has taken the Tigers. Only four more to go.

I'd still be willing to take an NL team as well if needed

bump

So I guess I've taken the Braves

Think you mean 2 AL teams, Joe

whoscraig has decided to take the last NL spot (team TBD) so the NL is full. We only need two more in the AL and we can get this thing started.

scottyboy4 has joined with the Browns. Just one more AL team needed and we're all set.
