I went to bed early last night and forgot to pick. Baltimore was supposed to be up at 11:57 last night according to the draft sheet but it also has SF at the same time so I have no idea where we are right now.

Well considering it has SF at 11:57 am and Baltimore at 11:57 pm I'm going to guess Baltimore got skipped last night and SF is on the clock right now.

I just did this for my own sanity. All times EDT starting at the top of Round 18 yesterday:

Tampa Bay pick at 4:43pm, Boston up until 6:43pm
Boston pick at 5:24pm, Cleveland up until 7:24pm
Cleveland's clock expired 7:24pm, Milwaukee up until 9:24pm
Cleveland pick at 7:40pm
Milwaukee pick at 7:57pm, Chicago (N) up until 9:57pm
Chicago (N)'s clock expired 9:57pm, Baltimore up until 11:57pm
Baltimore's clock expired 11:57pm, San Francisco up until 11:57am
Chicago (N) pick at 9:31am

The Blingees' time is accurate in the draft doc. They have just under two hours to pick.


Edit: Time travel oooOOOooOOOOooOOOOO

It didn't matter, but I (Baltimore) should not have been skipped. Clock freezes at 10pm EST. I was well within my 2 hour window when I picked.

Daylight Saving Time is archaic as gently caress and makes no goddamned sense at all in a culture where only a tiny fraction of people still farm for a living. This doesn't change the fact that you, IcePhoenix, and the entire state of Arizona are asstarded for making a personal stand by refusing to acknowledge the rest of the United States' clock standard. The east. Coast. Is. On. Daylight. Saving. Time. If it was on Eastern Standard Time right now, it would be 10:29 there, not 11:29. Words have meaning. I am bored as gently caress and need to fill up the endless time between my picks somehow.

:negative: Sorry, y'all. I was on a plane or in a car for like all of yesterday. Though that's really no excuse for reading 10-12 as 10-10, since 10 never equals 12 no matter what loving time zone I'm in.
