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!
One of our top sources tells us that the Detroit Lions have reached an agreement in principle with Bears linebacker Roosevelt Colvin. Colvin would be the Lions second major defensive acquisition in five days. On Saturday, the Lions signed cornerback Dre' Bly, arguably the top coverage man on the open market. In Colvin, they've nabbed the man considered to be the top linebacker in free agency.
I think that rumor is wrong. Colvin never got an offer.

Colvin is also not in a rush to sign.
Lions | Colvin In Town, Not In A Rush? - from KFFL (http://nfl.kffl.com)
March 4, 2003 5:53:22 PT The Detroit News reports the Detroit Lions will visit, as previously reported, with free agent LB Rosevelt Colvin (Bears) on Tuesday. Colvin would give the Lions a pass rusher. "First and foremost, he's an experienced guy who's been starting," coach Steve Mariucci said. "He's a different-style linebacker than some of the others." However, Colvin doesn't appear to be in a rush to sign. "He's got some other visits," Mariucci said. "We're going to get a feel for him and get to know him a little bit."
