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

Fire Dick, eat the contract, and bring in a competent coach
or
Keep Dick and lose a crapload of season-ticket holders
Either way, he's going to have to eat some money. I don't see much of a financial benefit of holding on to Dick. Sure you have to pay him if you fire him, but he'll likely latch on somewhere else and the financial loss won't be that great.
If he keeps Dick Jauron, I don't know how the hell Russ Brandon is going to be able to market this team next year. That will be one of the toughest things ever for Russ.

There really is no choice...Dickey HAS to go. The amount of money it would cost is probably less then Ralphy pays in a signing bonus to a player, so it really isn't a big deal!
John Guy has to go. He's done very little if anything as pro personnel director. Modrak can go to as far as I'm concerned at this point. Too many misses early in the draft with these guys (Williams, Kelsay, Denney, JP, McCargo, Whitner-sorry he isn't producing like the 8th overall pick should, McGahee, etc.)
As for the coaching staff everyone goes, and yes that includes April. I don't want to hear anything about how he should be the next HC or all that. Yes, he's done great things with ST, and if the new coach wants to keep him fine, but his staying is not a requirement. There is a culture of losing that permeates this franchise. It starts with Ralph, but he isn't going anywhere until his time comes so that is something we all have to deal with. As for the internals of the organization it is time to clean house. I know the Donahoe thing didn't turn out, but Ralph can't let that experience completely haunt his thinking.
If Jauron comes back, this is going to be like 85 and 86. Empty seats and the ones sitting in the stadium with bags over their heads. The only difference being, I think most will use plastic instead of paper to cover up.

And another positive to this would be that if we used the plastic, that might put a few more of us out of our misery.
Now you see that evil will always triumph, because good is dumb.
Hello. My name is Shawn Spencer this is my associate Hummingbird Saltalamachia
I was going to take that XMas deal and buy 2 seasons. But now I will wait till Feb and if this coaching staff is still here Im not buying!! **** them!!
I am stationed overseas and have watched Bills games with a 6 hour time difference for 3 years now. I have watched them from a war zone and I have pleaded with local barkeeps who show American football to show the Bills.
No one will tell me I am not a diehard fan when it's 3:00am and I am watching the Bills live from Iraq.
