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!
This is only a test
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

If and when Ralph passes,the Rogers Centre (Skydome) holds only 55,000. That means that Toronto have to build a new stadium that can hold 10-15 thousand more seats. This will take at least 3-4 years. I really don't want that to happen and I pray that Jim Kelly or someone can buy this franchise and SAVE THE BILLS!!!
I've seen the "Jim Kelly is going to buy the team" thing in several different threads.
To set the record straight, Jim Kelly is not going buy the franchise. As I understand it, he is trying to find an investor, or more probably a small group of investors, to buy the team and keep it in Buffalo. I would imagine he might then have some role - small investor, executive position, or both - with the new ownership.
Kelly simply doesn't have the resources to buy the team himself. But he may have the clout and the contacts to bring together a new ownership group.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

I know that,but he's the high profile face of the investors group and trust me, he's going to have a lot of say about who comes to the Bills if he and his group can buy the franchise.

Yeah, that's all a dream and I don't know who started it but I'd like to donkey punch that person.
Box sales would affect revenues as well, plus it's naturally going to be more expensive for the 1+ game in Toronto vs. 7 in Buffalo because of simple supply and demand. But I'm sure the smaller stadium does factor in to the cost.

You also have to consider that Toronto is one of the richest cities in the world and some feel that it's the most metropolitan in the world.
Most NFL stadiums are smaller then Buffalo, but the majority get considerable more per seat then what the Bills charge.
then there is luxury boxes. The Skydome has plenty of upper end luxury boxes at a much larger premium then what Buffalo gets for their boxes. Other teams in the NFL also get much more for their boxes then what Buffalo get for theres.
Bottom line is most teams in the NFL bring in a heluva alot more cash, and a town like Toronto is going to bring in a premium.
