I know it's early in the league and whatnot but I'm looking forward to making a record book for our league (digitally, ain't nobody got time to print and bind that shit) for everyone to be able to look back on and be nostalgic (that may be a personal thing being a huge stat geek, but I figure everyone who plays any level of fantasy sports cares somewhat about that). My idea for the record book has some things in place already. I spent some time yesterday designing templates for the book because I'm a stickler for making the tables look pretty. I've finished a table record for our drafts which obviously will be concluding in the next few days here, as well as pages for pending opening day rosters. I made free agent and trade trackers so player movement can be tracked as well season-to-season (a little overkill maybe but this is what you got yourself into folks ). Finally, I will be making "Meet the Manager" pages for each owner for each sport with a little performance and roster history (overall record, best and worst regular season record, highest team performance, individual player performmance, and head to head records vs. the other owners.) I'm going to get into the habit of using everyone's names from now on because I, for example, can't keep calling Chris "naked" Dallas GM (naked)
I attached a sample of what a section of the book would look like if anyone is interested in looking at what I've started on.

If anyone has any suggestions for additions to the record book I'd love to hear them!
ALSO, I have been looking at things like trophies and did find some matching ones for all four sports on flyingwawards.com/. I was thinking we could get one with tags on them to engrave for each year. I'm of course open to more unique ideas for rewards and such at season's end too. Something along the lines of a jacket with a yearly patch sewn on and mailed to the league champion for each year, and maybe the last place team has to do something silly and photograph it or something. Obviously a while away with all this stuff but I wanted to hear all suggestions
FINAL ORDER OF BUSINESS:
Obviously, our league is named very boringly because I am dangerously uncreative, so if anyone has any name suggestions for our league, for each individual sport league names (maybe tie them together?), for the trophies, or anything, we're all ears. Also, I was going to get a logo or something worked on at some point too but I am incompetent with everything design based so that might be a while. If anyone is into that kind of thing I'd love some input.
