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

Bengals (-2.5) over DOLPHINS
If it's an all-animal matchup, I always try to weigh that accordingly. Dolphins are cuddly and nice. I don't understand why any NFL team would wear aqua blue unis and call itself "The Dolphins," then not expect to get its butt kicked. They should go with the Spearfishers. I would have taken them if they were the Spearfishers.
The biggest thing we learned from the Bills is that they are a resilient bunch and did what they had to do to win instead of past years where they fold like a cheap lawn chair.

Pretty stupid. Just ask sharks how tough dolphins can be. Stupid woman
LtF**** you have become a very bitter person this year. You used to have a sense of humor. I understand your saddness over your team, but for crimeny's sake lightne up a bit
In my day we did not have self-esteem... we had self-respect, and no more of it then we earned.
A: Usually not, unless the shark is relatively small.
This notion is based on a much-publicized incident that took place at the Miami Seaquarium in the 1950's. When a Sandbar Shark showed a bit too much interest in the birth of a Bottlenose Dolphin calf, three of the adult male dolphins ganged up on the shark, butting it in the gills and stomach until it died. This 'protective' behavior was cemented in the public's mind by the television series, Flipper, produced in association with the Miami Seaquarium. There is a record of a Bottlenose Dolphin off California killing a two-foot Leopard Shark (Triakis semifasciata), then supporting it at the surface (which raises doubts about tales of dolphins 'rescuing' human swimmers: perhaps balancing an object on the rostrum is merely a dolphin game, devoid of any altruistic motivation).
During the 1960's, the U.S. Navy trained Bottlenose Dolphins to incapacitate large sharks by butting their delicate gill pouches. The dolphins quickly learned to attack Sandbar (Carcharhinus plumbeus), Lemon (Negaprion brevirostris), and Nurse Sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum), but refused to approach a Bull Shark (Carcharhinus leucas) of similar size and shape. Sandbar, Lemon, and Nurse Sharks are not known to attack dolphins in the wild, but Bull Sharks are. This suggests that dolphins are able to classify sharks as either dangerous or not dangerous — an eminently practical taxonomy.
In the wild, similar-sized dolphins and sharks pretty much leave each other alone. Some 75% of wild dolphins show some degree of shark scarring — and we usually see only the ones that got away. I have pulled dolphin remains from the stomachs of many sharks over the years, particularly from Tiger Sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier). Thus, it seems that in most battles between dolphins and sharks in the wild, dolphins get the worst of the encounter.
there's your book LT, you can drop that myth now.
Unless 3 on 1 very small shark makes you bad :snicker2:
Real sharks have fish breath, from chowing your 'badboy' fish.
