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

More to come when I get home from work.. about his un-funny jabs time and time again today regarding the city of Buffalo. Way to piss off the current WNY sponsors you currently have still in WNY.
The more Ralph pisses the fan base off, the more accelerated and more reason for the franchise to move.
I've been saying it since day one, this deal with Toronto is the beginning of the end for the Buffalo Bills franchise. I'm glad that Thrum and everyone else is starting to realize it too.
Makes me ****in sick. How could you possibly go to another Bills game and feel the same? How does it not feel like your watchin your wife/girlfriend porking some other dude?

Buffalo is a financially dead city with little to offer a big time conglomorate like the NFL. The NFL wants the territory but not the city, and Ralph knows what the future holds for Bills in Buffalo.
What should Ralph do to solve Buffalo's financial problem and bring in the revenues necessary to run an NFL organization and compete at the levels being set by big markets...
Personally I think the Bills should raise ticket prices so the minimum price of a ticket is like $90, and prime seats are $150 per game. That's what big markets are charging, and thats what it will take to keep up. However how many fans would cancel season tickets at those prices ????
Buffalo is going to end up moving to Toronto because Toronto is wealthy, and you can also thank our latest economy which has the Canadian dollar almost on par with the American buck. The Bills can fetch over $200 a ticket in Toronto
$60 in Buffalo or $200 in Toronto... your the Businessman you make the call.
Face fact people Buffalo has been mis-managed for decades, it has miserable winter weather, and short summers, it has little to offer in employment opportunites that pay solid wages with excellent benefits for the masses. Which is my most of us left. I would have never left it some company in Buffalo would pay be $30 an hour with a pension plan and benefits for my family. Those opportunities were few, and too many people were left competing for those opportunities.
The problem is not Ralph, although he is not winning any awards for Buffalonian of the year... it just a plain and simple fiscal reality.
How long will the NFL allow Buffalo to suck on the revenue sharing teet before it pretty much assists the move to a more robust revenue generating town ?
Instead of *****ing, lets hear all the ideas you all have that will increase the Bills financial well being.
if you bought a football team for 700 million would you not want to see a return on investment ? The Bills could win 10 straight superbowls and that will not change the fact that there are not enough people making high enough wages to pay $100 per seat per game... and again this is what other teams are getting.
but don't worry eventually even the big markets will collapse upon there own greed and the NFL itself will be making significant changes a decade down the road IMO..

All this talk of the Bills moving eventually got me thinking of economic ideas to help generate new capital and keep the Bills in WNY. Here are some of my proposed idea's & please add you own as well:
1.) Double ticket prices at RWS for season tickets - However painful this may seem, alot of people spent a fortune for
In my short 36 years of existance, I have NEVER heard the owner of a franchise LITERALLY belittle his own organization and the community that they play in like I heard Wilson today.
Some of you don't deserve a team in Buffalo with the way some of you guys act.
Ralph is the main reason the city of Buffalo has a team. He could have packed up everything and moved years ago. Not to mention how cheap Bills tickets are for you fans.

And I could've stopped giving a **** about the Bills since they're a joke the past 10 years.
