It's possibly I'm hijacking this thread a bit because I'm still a
Rails noob, but couldn't opponent by of type Team in another
belongs_to relationship on schedule? Or is that a bad idea? If so, can
someone tell me how you'd model that? From an OO perspective you'd
have

Team team;
Team opponent;

would you just set up another belongs_to like:

belongs_to :opponent, :class_name => "Team", :foreign_key => "opponent_id"
