Back to the Future: Alternate Reality America

[njndirish]

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.

I haven't perused this site myself, but the guy who runs it is Canada's foremost historian of soccer in Canada: http://www.canadiansoccerhistory.com/

[njndirish]

I haven't perused this site myself, but the guy who runs it is Canada's foremost historian of soccer in Canada: http://www.canadiansoccerhistory.com/

I have seen Mr. Jose's site, and I know he has a book out there somewhere and I plan to get my hands on it. Sadly his site isn't as detailed as http://homepages.sover.net/~spectrum/ and several of Mr. Allaway's texts

[Toronto Blizzard]

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.

[Toronto Blizzard]

I'm assuming Bethleham Steel and Oneida Football Club are to be included?

[njndirish]

I'm assuming Bethleham Steel and Oneida Football Club are to be included?

Of course, along with the Fall River Marksman, Brooklyn Wanderers, and several others.

[Toronto Blizzard]

Very nice. Galt FC from Canada needs to be in there, too (though, it sounds like you've got the research in-hand!).

[themodelcitizen]

Colin Jose is the guy to search for Canadian club history: http://www.canadiansoccerhistory.com/

Google his name to try and find more tidbits, the guy is basically the grand old man of Canadian footy history

[ABUREL]

you have something to work there .. Here's a site that can help http://http://homepages.sover.net

[grade]

Nice work. it seems you have lot of work to do.

I also was doing a USA pyramid system league, but life got in the way. But I will do as well research to make detail as possible as well.

[njndirish]

Added more teams, 162 new teams, with school it takes a while, but I've developed a formula to help create reputations, attendance, and max attendance

It also looks like there will be state leagues, and potentially city leagues (NYC, Fall River, St. Louis)

[njndirish]

Added a few more teams and competitions

[lukegolden2000]

Amazing idea.

[Booooooom]

This is fascinating.

One little request though. Could you upload two versions of this when it's done? One with USA becoming a better NT (and 2002 finalist) and one without changing anything with the national team etc? Assuming of course that it'd be your last step before launching the complete version, I don't see it as a huge request

[Alan A Wadge]

This sounds amazing, wishing you all the best! I'll definitely try the finish product once you publish it.

[Jason the Yank]

Cool concept.

Hope you leave room for the likes of Vampire FC (San Francisco), Roses FC (Detroit), St. Leo's (St. Louis) and Utah Copper.

[Booooooom]

any news here?

[njndirish]

any news here?

Been massively delayed with real life stuff, but I plan on working on it soon, hopefully late spring if anything

[goldtiger0]

Will these teams replace the original MLS Teams?

[njndirish]

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.

[njndirish]

486 unique teams in reputation order, the long weekend will hopefully be very productive

[Firesox]

no cosmos in the top league?

btw, really looking forward to this, love american soccer history

[njndirish]

Haven't reached the letter N yet in the almanac

[cswalk08]

The Delaware Wizards!?!?!?! I went to a few of their games and caps when I was 8! hahaha This is awesome! Good luck finishing this I can't wait to see it!

[shawne3386]

I'd love to be able to play in an all St. Louis league. If this were to happen, I would personally be very grateful as a soon-to-be graduate killing time while waiting for job interview calls.

[njndirish]

I have begun working on the main 4 leagues to set up a basis, more clubs will be added to 974 clubs already created.

[Pancev]

Whatever you do, please continue the Fall River/Bethlehem derby into the modern era.

[goldtiger0]

Any news? I tried to create my own USA league system, but to no avail. Really Can't wait for this!

[adam426]

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.

[Scott Candage]

Oh, I really want this. I'm originally from Fall River and MUST have this!!! Looks like great fun.

[Scott Candage]

Not sure if you've seen this list but I think you got most of them http://homepages.sover.net/~spectrum/earlyteams.html - but I noticed you missed the Fall River Weetamoes. Also, inclusion of Ponta Delgada S.C. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponta_Delgada_S.C. (John and Ed Souza of the 1950 World Cup team were on this team) would seem a must. Thanks!

[Scott Candage]

Any update on how this file is coming along?

[goldtiger0]

^^

I would also be interested in knowing any progress.

[panicfc23]

I've got to say, this is impressive.

[Scott Candage]

Could you please let us know how this is progressing?

[chris85]

I would also be interested to know the progress. Having read your description, am looking forward to playing it.

[Scott Candage]

I guess I'll stop looking at this thread every day. I do so have a life.

[goldtiger0]

FM13 is getting pretty close, i would like to be able to play this db. Any News?

[Scott Candage]

Testing, testing, is this thing on?

[Seller]

A few teams I didn't see:

CD Mexico/El Farolito, 1993 US Open Cup winners, merged with SF Bay Diablos in 1994 & 95. You got the Diablos...good work...i was the GK.

San Francisco Greek Americans, US Open Cup winners

San Jose Oaks, US Open Cup winners

San Francisco Scots, the oldest, continuous Soccer Club in the USA until they folded in 2007

[Scott Candage]

Hello? Is there anybody in there?

[gravityfed]

Would love to have this when its available! Any updates?

[mytreds]

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.
