File and pages are up; the deadline for roster moves, extensions, releases and reward camps is TOMORROW, TUESDAY NIGHT at 9:00 PM EASTERN. I will reverse the career-enders, if there are any, as well. The actual flip will probably be a couple hours later as it takes time to do so.
If you want more time, let me know.
Dave/Mark, do yo jobs!
