That's 3am EST. I still haven't figured out how long it takes for the WW to switch over to FA's. It definitely doesn't switch over at 12:01 AM sharp.
Bluto: Over? Did you say over? NOTHING is over until WE decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? HELL, NO!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.

WW usually processes between 4am-5am eastern time (1am-2am pacific). One of the nice things about having gone back to school (and working on my own schedule) is being able to scoop up anybody I want that clears waivers.

it does, actually, as long as the player involved doesn't have any pending waiver claims.
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll drown because you forgot to teach him to swim.

I wish that were the case, but it just isn't--at least not all of the time. I live on the west coast and there have been multiple occasions after midnight, and even after 1am, when I've tried to pick up a player when he switched over to free agency after and he still showed up on yahoo as a waiver wire guy. And the next morning when I've picked him up he was available as a free agent--so there obviously were no waiver wire requests for him.
