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!
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -- Bills head coach Dick Jauron isn't worried about defensive tackle John McCargo's recovery from a broken left foot and says the former first-round pick should be ready when training camp opens at the end of July.
More great news. If this keeps up, the negmeisters are going to have a tough day trying to bring the rest of us down.
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?
Jauron also said the other day that he's "not a doctor".
And one of the biggest reasons why players supposedly make the big jump between year one and year two is a full off-season to condition. Well, McCargo's conditioning is limited by his injury.
But he's already been declared a bust. Someone, quick forward him the memo. Give up. [/sarcasm]
I never said that he was a bust, but if you're not at least a little concerned by the fact that he's been injured two consecutive seasons and is missing valuable conditioning time, then you're just being naive.
C'mon, Op, cheer up. Come out of the dark side and join us naive homers.

Here we go with negativity again. Why don't you look and mention the positive also before trying to find something negative to lock on to:
McCargo has been able to work out his upper body all offseason. He’s noticeably thicker in the shoulders and chest than he was as a rookie.
“I’ve been getting a lot stronger,” McCargo said. “All I’ve been doing is lifting weights and working out. It’s not just about trying to lift 225 pounds like after college last year. It’s about playing stronger. . . . We have machines here that isolate each arm. In college we didn’t have machines like that. We do a lot more to get your core [torso] stronger. We do a lot to improve flexibility. In college we didn’t do nearly as much of that.”
