Hello Central Division GMs,

I have been appointed your divisional BOG member, and look forward to communicating and working with each of you. I will be who your UFA extensions and RFA extensions will be negotiated through. If you have any rules/signings/eligibility questions, feel free to let me know and I'll do my best to find an answer for those questions.

This thread was created for exclusive use by the teams in your division only. Here will be where official signings for your teams and any other important information will be confirmed and posted.

Stay tuned for any future updates from me as to time frames for various things we need to accomplish.

**PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE THIS MESSAGE AS NOT TO CREATE THOSE ANNOYING NOTIFICATIONS TO EVERYONE**

Central Div GMs,

The first buyout period is now open. It will close at the start of the entry draft (June 2). There will be a second buyout period June 10th -16th so don't feel rushed to do all (or any of) your buyouts now. Once you post a buyout, you cannot "undo it" so please don't edit your posts in that thread. Be certain that you want to buy a guy out before making the post official.

Thanks,
Matt59
