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 http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/forum/feedback-forums/billszone-q-a/6521455-upgrade-report-bugs-here

USAtoday: Lynch steps into high expectations in Buffalo camp

08-08-2007, 11:05 AM

PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Buffalo Bills rookie Marshawn Lynch started the process of giving back before his NFL career began.
The running back held a camp for youngsters in his hometown of Oakland before reporting to his first training camp to assume the challenge of replacing Willis McGahee.
Lynch was that eager to serve as a role model.
"I come from the 'hood. We didn't really get to see too many athletes who made it," Lynch says. "We saw ones who had the potential to make it and got caught up in something. Thank God I'm one who made it this far. I just want to show kids it's possible."

What is about people from the hood that makes them always say they came from the hood? I think we figured out by now, you lived in the hood.

Not sure what you're getting at here. If he didn't say he came from the hood, how would we know?

Not all of us look at black guys with dreads and automatically assume they're from the hood.

I'll give him that. He definitely is more articulate than Willis McGahee was.

Very true. I've yet to remember an articulate Miami football player. Some talk like idiots (McGahee and Frank Gore), some fail wonderlics (Roscoe Parrish), and some go and on about relating football to war (Kellen Winslow, Jr.)

Bling is a racist. He thinks Jason Taylor is from the hood.
