Inspired by this & this.... (I think the D'backs still lose, tho.)
Your mission, Jim, should you choose to accept it...is to a) start professional baseball as soon as possible after the first organized game in Ontario in 1838; b) have the pro league, by whatever name, incorporate as many other leagues (such as the Federal & Continental Leagues) as possible, rather than destroying them; c) have teams stay where they were founded (Boston Pilgrims, Brooklyn Dodgers, so forth); d) have a 40-team league in 2009. Bonus points for every Canadian team. Extra bonus points for incorporating Negro Leagues players (teams!) before 1947.
