Just bought this today, I tried changing teams names within the game but it doesn't stick, anyway to do this?

Also, I went way over the cap with my initial draft but nothing happened, does something eventualy happen, is there a way to play without a cap?

I've been messing around with it a bit, seems like fun so far.

Do it as Commissioner (make sure the team selection drop-down is set for Commissioner's Office instead of a specific team), and go to Team Info. You can change team nicknames and graphics from there. Then save the game, quit, and reload. Without the quit/reload, some parts of the UI still use the old nicknames.

I'm thinking about buying this game but was wondering if I can download real rosters and logos, etc. or if there's a way to start with a completely ficticious universe. Anyone?

As JB pointed out there are lots of mods out there for rosters and logos and even draft files I believe - the one other thing you mentioned was a fictional universe. If by that you mean a completely random set of players then the only way to do that is if you create a fictional league, quit as the GM, login as the commish and sim out like 15 seasons into the future and then jump in then. The seasons sim fairly quickly so its not a massive project but there is nothing that makes a completely random set of players at the start (although you could run a fantasy draft and at least mix up the players)
