as I'm sure this has been asked a million times before but I have honestly searched the forums and am not finding a quick answer.

I've been away from OOTP for several years and now back in again... but I remember that at one point you actually had to download a seperate file to get the historical players and current major leaguers.

I see in this game you can quick-start a new 2009 league and all the players are in there... but yet when I've gone back and tried to start my own game and make some changes - for instance setting up my own league - the game always gives me fictional players... so am I doing something wrong... or do I have to download a file from somewhere?

Also... I'm very interested in creating my own 'restructuring' of MLB. Meaning I want real teams and real players and starting in 2009... but for instance I want to move the Royals to the NL Central (where they should have gone) and the Houston Astros to the AL West to even up the leagues. But again, I want to use the real teams and keep the real players on there.

Is there any 'simple' way to do this? I guess I'm just lost.

Thanks in advance.
