Have Online leagues built in to OOTP6

(If this hasn't been suggested before)
I think it is entirely possible for OOTP6 (or 5) to have the online feature built in to the actual program, using the DirectPlay technology. Yes, after signing into the internet, click one button to send in rosters to the commisioner, who sims the games while all players watch. With high speed internet, it wouldn't be too hard to run a whole league online the whole time, with chat rooms and the manual use of the "email function".

Let me know if this is possible, or at least what you think.

hmmm....maybe for online leagues, you can write emails to the other GMs and they will recieve it when they click the letter button or on their HTML thing....so if you wanted to propose an offer.....

what I'm proposing is more of an all around thing (optional of course). The email thing is sent WITHIN the OOTP program, and it is recieved by other GMs. It seems a lot less awkward, compared to the online league "html" imports and stuff. The downside of this would be that not as many people would use homepages.
