Is there a way to?????

Is there a way to "retire" all players after releasing them from their teams? I ran a sim up until 1981 with real players. Then for the supposed strike, I wanted to release, then "retire" all players. If I "delete" then all the players who are on career leaderboards will disappear, will they not?

Good question... I suggest making a backup and then trying it out. I do not have access to the code right now, so I cannot say that for sure.

I love the fact that this game has so many possibilities even the creator isn't sure.

(No, really, I like us having that much freedom to make our very own worlds.)

I was afraid of what I'd find out...........if you do hit delete all free agents from the function screen in game setup, all the players disappear like they never played a game, including on the historical leaderboards. Not sure if it's too late, but how about a "force retire" button, next to the "delete all free agents" button in the free agent screen when you are in commish mode for v9?
