I mean, we know that stats accumulated in triple-A are, well, equal to triple-A stats. And double-A stats are double-A. But we don't know, even close to definitely, where Negro League stats should be. It is, and will always be, a matter of opinion. Thus, if OOTP wants gamers who are into Negro Leagues to be into OOTP, the option should be included. IMO.

i like that idea!!! i don't know how much work it would be, or how much traction there would be to have it implemented, but those of us who like using Negro League Players in our games (even if not the actual leagues) would love an option to have them imported at whatever level we want for our game. Great idea Sir. Now we just need to see it put into effect somehow ...
