or... from a bot team that has been recycled. I think when a team is wiped for a new coach, every player has a small chance to seek employment again much like when you fire people. That's why you sometimes see clumps of odd free agents - usuallly with a bit of age and sometimes developed to some extent (which excludes a brand new team immediately discarding players with no future when they generate their team).

there are several bot teams that have like 41-45 yr olds. they cant retire on bot teams. so they are always planning to retire. like brett favre.

iii.1 has a team of all ol as well. there are some dinosaurs on that team. columbus cows or something with cows.

Bringing back a very old thread, but when a player has this message do they always actually retire at the end of that season?
