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 http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/forum/feedback-forums/billszone-q-a/6521455-upgrade-report-bugs-here

Triplett just got cut by the Seahawks. Looks like we weren't the only ones who realize that he sucks.

Vikings cut WR Martin Nance. We all liked him when we picked him up as UDFA.

I think his first FA period - Triplett, Royal, Fowler et. al. - was shaky. But he really impoved the O line last year with Dockery, Walker and Whittle. I'd give him a B- in free agent signings, but his two drafts were better.

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?

Add in Edwards (hopefully) and Lynch and another hopefully in Poz and maybe Whitner.

I think you forgot about Price, Nall, Hargrove, and a few others...

When you sign guys for fairly big money and they end up not playing again in the league that can't be good.

Hargrove we traded for I think it was like a 5th or 6th round draft pick. He was decent until his recent offield issues.

Yeah, and I think there were Matt Bowen and a few other disasters, too. As I said, Marv's first free agent signing period was not too productive. I think the Bills went more for depth, and took a flier on several guys, which didn't work out well. Hargrove, though, was a midseason pickup with some ability but a 10 cent brain.

Nall was not big money and Hargrove was a trade who played at his expected levels for two years.

Sadly, he is dumber than shoe leather.

I grouped Hargrove in the same non-draft pick group. I believe Hargrove was the only one we brought in as a trade so i lumped him in. Nall was paid 7 figures to come here. Look it up.
