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

Profootballtalk.com reports the Browns are expected to sign free agent OL Eric Steinbach to a contract worth roughly $7 million-per-season.
Steinbach will play left guard if he signs with Cleveland on Friday.
While I agree that this money is ridiculous and he will be overpaid on a thin market, get ready for the countless, stupid posts about what an overated player Steinbach is.
The truth for the unbiased people; is that Steinbach is one of the best guards in the NFL. I don't talk about him because Buffalo won't and shouldn't pay him that kind of money (too many holes to use up that much money for one person)-- But if he became a Bill I"d be absolutely estatic.
Few guards are better than him, but that will get twisted tommorow once he signs with whomever for a crazy contract.
IF Cleveland signs him I will be impressed for one reason.
THey spent a lot on Fa's last year and didnt win ****.. Frankly, they sucked..
but what i like about this is small market team or not, if nothing else at least this FO makes an EFFORT to bring in big name players to give their fans something to be excited about. If you think that doesnt matter then you're being naive about business and your only fooling yourself.
But.. having said that-- The reason why this team is not good, hasnt been good in quite some time and may not be for several more years is because they are maybe the worst team at drafting since the Colts of the pre-Polian days.
Having marqee FA's is great, but its a waste of you dont consistently draft good young talent... This is the ONE category that I do still feel real good about Marv Levy right now.

Cleveland is soon becoming the Bermuda Triangle for high priced free agency. You see them all over the place, and all of a sudden they're gone and disappeared off the face of the earth.

Steinbach gives up an average of 3.5 sacks and 6.5 penalties including 4.5 false start penalties, a year. Moreover he's been playing between Levi Jones and Rich Braham, 2 excellent players, for most of his career.
Just count me as one of those who think that $7M a year is WAY too much.
