This was a very fun build. I'm surprised more people aren't in already. Some people shy away from themes that involve a lot of research, but this one really doesn't. For those who are considering it, give it a try!

This was a super fun build. I actually finished a second team and I'm now debating which one I should go with.

To encourage more signups I'm going to add to the rules a bit more clarification on name connectivity.
If a players real or full name is different from what is used in the WIS database then it is ok to use that name as a link.
For instance: in baseball-reference.com Addie Joss's real full name is Adrian Joss. So any other player with a first name of Adrian would be eligible.


coping this to the first post.

Not sure that's really fair to the teams who have already entered without the benefit of this rule.

We are probably a long way from this league filling. If anyone wants to pull their team and redo it that is not a problem.
