What year is a good year to start with for a historical league? 1901? 1920? 1946? 1962? 1977?

Anybody have a favorite starting point?

Really depends on what your looking for. My favorite thing to do is to rebuild some of the worst teams in history. Taking over the '27 Yankees isn't fun for me.

Pre-60's doesn't do much for me. Start in 1962 and take over the Mets if you want a challenge.

Definitely 1946!

I always start in 1903, if only because leagues dont change much after that for a long time (excpet a few name changes). Only thing is, in 1904 the schedule went from 140 games to 154 games

I also start in 1903, for the same reasons (easy expansion). In 1901 you get that anomalous Brewers' team. You chop a couple years off Christy Mathewson's career, but you get all of Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker, etc. The fictional players fizzle out after a few years and it's all historical.
