I am not sure that is correct. Because i have always assumed that historical players were real players and that yes the standard league may use real players with names changed but then again wouldnt that make them fictional players? After all ootp doesnt know names. I have always understood there to be fictional and historical/real players. Still it would probably be easier to use a roster set or edited database or for him to edit the database as he likes than trying to change every name. I am pretty sure someone has probably already done that. But then again i have hardly bothered with standard league because i like custom and historical leagues.
