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

Yeah I believe it will be Modrak, and I think this was the plan. Obviously with Marv being 82, he wasnt going to be a long term option as GM. He was brought in to bring focus back to the organization that was lost with TD. Modrak has most likely been making most of the personnel decisions anyways. When TD was fired, Modrak wouldnt have taken the GM job with his close friendship with Donohoe, so they bring in Levy for 2 years, call him the GM, then "officially" hand over the reigns to the Modrak.
Marv brought Dick and trained him slowly. April became Assistant HC and will now be HC.
Lecter told you first.
Hmmm, that would be VERY interesting. I'm not sure how I feel about April. He struggled with his special teams this year, even though they were all scrubs, they still made a bunch of dumb mistakes all year.
Don't forget the name Bob Ferguson, he was director of player personnel for the Bills during the 1990s and has been a GM in Arizona and most recently Seattle but stepped down from that position two years ago.
A source close to the Bills organization tells Channel 2 Sports that Marv Levy is expected to resign as Bills General Manager this week.
A second source has now confirmed the resignation will take place barring a change of heart from Levy.
The decision was confirmed following the Bills' 17-9 loss to Philadelphia on Sunday.
Levy, the Bills former Hall of Fame Coach, served as GM for the past two seasons. The Bills finished both with identical 7-9 records. He is responsible for the hiring of Dick Jauron as head coach and drafting of numerous current Bills starters, such as QB Trent Edwards, RB Marshawn Lynch, and safety Donte Whitner.
The 82-year-old also coached the Bills from 1986 to 1997, helming the team's four runs to the Super Bowl in the early 1990's.
I believe Ferguson left on bad terms ....I maybe wrong....
As for Modrak i was unaware the Jax home.. I guess that could change things big time....My main point ewas that Cowher coming to Buffalo is not likely....
I would like to see Tom Telesco from Indy in here as a GM or Green Bay's Reggie Mckenzie - no not the Elec company guard....
Those people are relics of the Donahoe era and we still haven't made the playoffs since they came to town. We need a complete gutting of upper level management here.
Marty ball??? Word is was trying to get a gig with atlanta after parcells dropped them for miami.
Incorrect it was the opposite. Blank was trying to get Cowher interested even offering combination position as coach and operations director but he turned it down.

I like your outside the organization thinking and also coming up with two names that might available. Of course it's all going to come down to Ralph Wilson, which scares me. As to be honest I'd prefer if Marv stepped down he'd name a successor. As fear Wilson will look and go with someone that feels will be a yes man to him and keep with his philosophy of building through the draft and not spending big money on free agents. As to me what's holding the Bills back from reaching the playoffs is not fully using the cap.
