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

The Patriots have had talks with representatives for free agent Sam Adams.
Bill Belichick is a fan of the 342-pound Adams, who could help back up Vince Wilfork on the nose. An Adams signing may not be good news for Mike Wright.
Apparently, the Pats are taking their new motto from the Statue of Liberty, "Give me your tired, your poor. . . "
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?
Wow, are the Pats getting old. If they sign Adams (34), he will join Seau (38), James (34), Kyle Brady (35), and Moss, Morris and Thomas (all 30 by the start of the season) as some of their key off season signings.
They will join the likes of Hawkins (32), Harrison (34), Bruschi (34), Vrabel (32), Colvin (30 during the season), Scott (33), Izzo (33) and the soon-to-be 30 Tom Brady.
They are definitely loading up for Belichick's last hurrah.

I wouldn't call them the Yankees- since they spend as much as everyone else.
But they are getting some top talent at discount prices. Most of these geezers are going to be backups/role players anyway. Tell me- would you rather have Tim Anderson , Brad Ciesak , and Mario Haggan or Sam Adams, Kyle Brady, and Jr Seau as backups?
If I were a Pats fan I'd be concerned if they were the Pat's starters - but as depth this is good for them.
Look at it this way guys- Looks like Bill Belichick wants to win one more before quitting. If they win it this year with the stacked line up- then it hastenes his retirement in my eyes. If that's the case, I hope they go 19-0 and win the Super Bowl and get his butt out of there sooner.

Actually, yes. I would. Because at least then I'd still have depth in place when everyone retires...rather than nothing at all. The end....is in sight. This division some day soon, shall belong to us and the Jests....
Good riddance Fairchild. Of course, the knowledge of your departure will only make TE more hateable than the typical Bills QB. Good luck, hope we don't mess you up like JP.

I think the Pats won't have to worry about long term depth.
They have some magic formula that gets them the experienced vet on sale while continually working the draft to near perfection. Weak draft year? Just trade their picks and bank them for a stronger draft.
They are the 49'ers from the 1980's. They would also get a lot of older washed up Vets for depth. Smerlas, Joe Cribbs, Charles Romes, Jim Burt, you name it.
1- Adams will be a backup. THat's a pretty good backup.
2- Yes, NE is getting old in some places, especially LB. Unfortunately for the competition, they got TWO first rounders and TWO third rounders next year to get more young talent when they need it.
