Stan Musial Retired at 23 years old

[pbar25]

Hi -

I'm currently in an OOTP online league that is using OOTP9.

We are within the 1945-6 free agency period (started in 1930), and 23 year old Stan Musial became the biggest free agent in our league's history.

His demands were roughly $400k per year.

Of the 16 teams within our league, at least 10 of the teams offered contracts, and offers began to approach $1,000,000 per year.

To our shock and horror, with multiple teams after him and multiple monster contracts on the table -- at the age of 23, during our last free agent sim -- Stan Musial retired.

We now are having a debate within our league as to whether or not to allow this retirement to stand.

We need to know if this is a glitch because too many contracts were offered to a player which happened to be well beyond what he was asking for --

Or is the game programmed to every once in a blue moon have 23 year old superstars retire?

We don't want to UNRETIRE him if it is against what the game engine attempts to accomplish.

But if it is a glitch, we obviously want Stan Musial to stay within our league.
