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!

Do you want to know how cheap this organization is???

Well, they cut TE Murphy last night and didn't bring in anybody, so it is pretty obvious it was done so that they wouldn't have to pay him a game check. My guess is that they have somebody in mind to sign tomorrow and didn't feel like paying the kid if he was inactive, so they cut him. Pretty cheap. IMO

Which is why we won't be here for long if we don't start winning NOW.

I hope Murphy's agent squirts some extra vaseline on the pen if the Bills call him back to play.

I hope it goes far enough up Wilsons colon so that he can feel it touching his stomach.

Matter-of-fact I hope they make the Bills pay him for the game that they didn't pay him for.

If they already knew they were going to get rid of him for someone else, then why not? He couldn't have played in the game anyways.

More likely they cut him so his year's salary would not be guarenteed like it would have been had he been on the opening day roster (and he would have been inactive yesterday). So it is not a game check thing, it is a year's salary thing and teams have done that for years.

They won't and can't.

Teams have been doing this for years to veteran player to avoid having an entire year's slary guarenteed.

The "Bills are cheap" argument has been disproven countless times.

100 million to two players is cheap???????????????????????????????????????????????????????
