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

Anybody catch last week's Bears game? The announcers were talking about the Bears brass being dissapointed in him and that has not even come close to their expectations.
Given the progress of our D-line, I'm sure glad this guy showed us his cards up front.
Darwin was overratted, and i am glad we didnt give the contract he wanted, he did nothing much to warrant a contract and i am glad we got a 5th for him, although i would have liked to get a better pick for spikes overall instead of walker
We get a 4th for Walker not a 5th. I will try and find the article, but the pick can be upgraded from a 5th to a 4th according to how much he plays. He has played in 11 games starting 7, at seasons end he will have played in 14 games and started 10....we will get a 4th for him.
Bringing in a guy who is sitting out a signed contract and rewarding him with a multi-year deal before he plays a down for the Bills would have sent a bad message to the rest of the team.
I agree, I think it is very funny how the Bills have a better record then all the teams that have ex-Bills because they wanted to go to a contender (Walker, McGahee, Spikes, etc). I guess they can look in the mirror and see there attitude is part of the problem. I think their are reasons why certain players never win. They don't have that team attitude.
The Bears just had to put two of their DTs on IR, so, even if they are disappointed with D.Walker, it is a pretty good bet that he is going to have to play. The conditional pick that the Bills got, as far as I understand it, is based on playing time, not performance. Given how much he has already played, it is likely that the Bills will end up with the Bears 4th rounder.
Who would have thought that the 3rd rounder that the Bills got from the Ravens for McGahee and the pick that the Bills will get from the Bears will both turn out to be higher picks than the Bills' picks in those rounds!?!
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.
Not to change the subject, but all those picks in this year's draft will give Marv and Co. plenty of ammo to move up in the draft. With all the guys whom will be coming off of injuries and all the guys that stepped in and played well, I think that this team's "depth" can be considered to be pretty good.
Back on the subject, I love that Spikes, Walker, and McGahee all left the lowly Bills to go play with "contenders" and all those so called contenders are all out of the playoff hunt now and the rotten Bills control their own destiny.
We get a 4th for Walker not a 5th. I will try and find the article, but the pick can be upgraded from a 5th to a 4th according to how much he plays. He has played in 11 games starting 7, at seasons end he will have played in 14 games and started 10....we will get a 4th for him.
Sorry bro, it's a 5th rounder...
I don't care if Walker sucks or not, I STILL to this day don't like the trade because I think with Spikes/Holcomb we could've done better than a 5th/7th.
Don't get me wrong, this defense obviously doesn't fit Spikes and he wouldn't have helped us, I just think we could've done a little better in the market.
oh well though. It's nice to see McCargo showing signs of being the player Levy HOPED Darwin Walker would be.
