Looks like Fields should probably be on the Giants by the timing of the signings...but I think OOPSS likes me better because it put him on my roster.

Must have been because Nils claim was at 12:09 and the OOPSS system didn't take him off waivers until 12:10 the first minute after the completion of the waiver period.

So maybe the waiver period runs through 12:09, when it says it ends at 12:09? So then Nils claim would need to be changed to a waiver wire claim from a free agent signing.

What I did was have the page up with his name on it and kept refreshing until it changed from "waiver" to the sign button. I can't help that it was at 12:09 or 12:10, shouldn't be a waiver claim.

OOPSS obviously liked my process better, he ended up on my roster.
