All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Positive and negative things about the team right now
Positive and negative things about the team right now
For me the positive thing is the secondary which looks very solid. Right now the defense got a major remodeling and we look every bit a strong as 04.
On the negative side I have to say the o-line. A lot of questions marks and I'm a little bit worried that were going to see a rerun of last year. If that's the case it doesn't matter which QB starts.
Re: Positive and negative things about the team right now
I think that besides the questions with the O line, negatives - or at least concerns - include the unsettled QB situation (although if given the opportunity to play and develop, JP should be very good); a group of smallish WRs, with no clearcut no. 2, and no real assurance that Evans can replace Moulds at no. 1; the uncertainty as to whether Spikes can come all the way back; and a young and unproven group of DTs.
Positives include a talented secondary; a solid group of veteran LBs; good talent and depth at WR and RB; a versatile and improved TE corps; and the league's best punter and ST units.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Dude you're nuts. The secondary is better, but 2 of the guys are rookies and will take their licks (remember McGee's first season at CB?) TKO is a big ? plus Fletcher and Posey are getting old. The DL still sucks. Tripplett is still the only guy really capable of starting at DT, and the two-headed monster of Denney and Kelsey doesn't scare anyone. In '04 the D had two dominant DT's, TKO and Fletcher peaking at LB, Nate at his best at CB plus experienced Milloy and Vincent... if you think the 06 D is anywhere close, you're kidding yourself.
Re: Positive and negative things about the team right now
Positives: a good core of young players in Losman, Evans, McGahee, McGee, Crowell etc. If these guys develop we could have a solid team for a long time to come.
Negative: lots of question marks at key positions, especially QB, OT, DT, DE, S, new coaching staff/new system, young team that lacks experience, best player coming off a severe injury (TKO)....
Re: Positive and negative things about the team right now
Who is our leader on Offense? Anyone? Anyone at all?
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Re: Positive and negative things about the team right now
The only two players on the roster I feel positive about are Evans and Moorman.
Everyone else is either a rookie, still developing, coming off a severe injury, disappointed last year, aging, mediocre, journeyman or just plain sucks.

Can't disagree there. Let's just say we should be better than we were last year.
