njndirish Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 George McFly was a pushover, constantly mocked, and has a shoddy life, while Biff stole everything from him. All it took was some time traveling to reverse the course of time. And that is what I plan to do. Through the flux capacitor and the Football Editor 2012, I have traveled back in time and created another reality. In this history, Harvard doesn't build a stadium which prevents the kicking-game from taking off, US Congress temporarily bans American Football in the early 20th century due to deaths, the great Soccer War is averted and baseball team owners and industrial leaders take the hit on Black Friday and support soccer teams as well. In essence, the thousands if not tens of thousands of football clubs that have graced the many playing fields of America are left in tact and prosper in their regional leagues and a new history is written filled with the beautiful game being played by millions. tl;dr Using several sources I am creating an American database taking an era in American sports where soccer was #2 behind baseball and continuing it to the present day where it became #1 in the 80's. This database will feature historical chronicled teams along with some imagination of the what-if variety. The teams will remain regional up until the 60's with the advent of the NASL, and later the 90's with MLS. Right now I'm in the research and basic creation phase and I plan to have this database out by April 1st. Goals -Create as many known teams as possible, then create additional teams if need be (In Progress Currently in the 1880's) -Create as many known competitions as possible, then create other competitions -Create a history of the entire system and its development -Create players, records, derbies, winners, stadiums, Awards and cities -Organize clubs by reputation formula -Sort Clubs into the leagues and competitions -Test -debug until clean -Create more media -Edit international history Known Alternate history As I have come to realize, had this alternate reality occurred, America would be a dominate force on the international stage. I plan on assessing this by pretending America was like England in the early 20th century where they refused to play in the World Cup and then I'll use the policy US's Olympic program, sent amateurs to play in the later events. I will however change the history post 1998. In 2002, America will make the finals where they lose to Brazil only because this won't happen. 2006 and 2010 are seen let downs keeping with actual history, leading to present day. Now some questions for you the reader (Please note this will change through time) -Derbies: the oldest Derby in America is the Taunton Derby in 1857, yet I cannot go beyond 1900 in dates, is there any way to change that? -History: if anyone has significant historical data in terms of American and Canada, please contact me. While the databases and books I am accessing are extremely valuable, they are only limited by the lack of records the nations kept of the game. If you happen to know of a book or a website I could use it would be greatly appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto Blizzard Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Yeah. I don't know how much is available easily, unfortunately. I wanted to add some historical Canadian clubs to my database, but I kept things pretty rudimentary... wikipedia was a decent source for club names, but beyond that, not much else. Are you creating your database in the normal editor? If so, are you planning on creating a Canadian cup? You might run into problems qualifying a Canadian team for the Champions League.

njndirish Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Will these teams replace the original MLS Teams? No, MLS teams will remain and the structure will be based around the idea that soccer was very regional, attempted to nationalize in the 70's, and nationalized again in 1996. Certain teams like Fall River Marksmen and Bethlehem Steel FC will be top flight, but most modern clubs will be higher up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam426 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Wow this looks incredible. How will it affect the mosern day U.S. national team though. will all the real players like donovan etc be there. You'd think that if "Soccer" had been the most popular sport in America for the last 100 years then players like Donovan would probably not be able to get into the National Side and many of the best players in the world would be American and the MLS would probably be the strongest league in the world.

mytreds Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 If anyone is interested, I am attempting this myself on FM 12. I'm not using as many teams njndrirish has listed, just the major ones and those I could find wiki pages for. It'll be at least 5 tiers- an American Premier League (16 teams), an American National League (20 teams), North, East, South, and West conferences (about 15 teams apiece), then regional divisions and league under that. Right now I have listed all the teams I want to use and am sorting them into their present day divisions. From there I'll have to start creating individual team and division histories. And then I'll crack open the editor to start the grueling process of reediting everything in the US database. Again if anyone is interested, I'll keep posting.
