Will there be an update at release time?

That is great news. I always feel like a rump roast when I have to quit on people when I just want an update. I've wondered what the reasoning was.

I can't try this here because I'm not hitting the appropriate servers but I would guess that you will be able to download the roster by simply going into the depth chart screen. This would be a great accidental feature. Phil

Many thanks Phil !

Thanks Phil for that......but can you say whether or not a roster update will take place?

We have a pretty good Online Franchise set up and was wondering if say Thrash was off of the Redskins, Jansen is now on the Lolions, Dre Bly is on the 9ers, Rodney Harrison is retired - these sort of things
