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

I didn't search the archives, this may have been already discussed, but I'm on dial-up, and I don't have the patience.
The Washington Post is reporting that Washington D.C. and New York City have made the final four cities competing to host the 2008 Super Bowl.
My pick for a Super Bowl site, regardless of the parties, Rich Stadium or Lambeau Field. The SuperBowl in snow. Or rain. We need Football Weather, not wuss weather.
My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.
Huge huge mistake for a northern Super Bowl in an outdoor stadium.
Do you remember this past winter when the Super Bowl was on, it must have been -5 degrees here in NYS with wind. There is no freakin way that would be a good Super Bowl. I say keep all the games in the warm weather or indoors. There could be no halftime show, it would really suck IMO.
Lou Saban: You can get it done, you can get it done. And what’s more, you’ve gotta get it done.
I don't think it would be a good idea either. Imagine if it was here and the weather was like the Miami game last year! I personally would love it but I doubt if most of America would!

I disagree. there's nothing better than watching a playoff game played in the snow. there's been so many classic games due to the weather. I think this San-Diego/Tampa/Atlanta rotation blows. And who cares about a half-time show. I'd love for the NFL to have the balls to try it. If it doesn't work, go back to domes.

Imbondz, aren't you sick of the winter come late Jan (or early Feb a couple years back)? I like the winter a lot. I enjoy skiing and would probably never move too far South, but enough is enough. I am sure 97.5% of the players agree with me.
Super Bowls in the North are a great idea. As far as a half time show goes, do it in a hockey arena in the city you are having the SB in, and make it a free concert, but televise it live on TV.
No big deal.
How sweet would it be? SB at the Ralph, Bills vs. Cowgirls? LOL!!
As far as DC and NYC, that was talked about because of the 9/11 attacks...help them out a little extra with the added income that a Super Bowl would provide for the regions. I'd personally love to see one in Buffalo or even in Soldier Field or Lambeau Field...where football tradition is rich. But I don't see it happening as Super Bowls aren't for the fans to attend, but for the corporate sponsors...and they don't have the toughness to sit outside in a blizzard like Bills fans do!!
I could see perhaps the Meadowlands or DC as a Superbowl site. I don't really expect it will ever happen in a "real" northern city like Buffalo or Chicago unless it has a dome. The reason is that a lot of the tickets go to celebrities and corporate big shots who'd have a fit if they had to sit through a snow storm in subzero weather. The NFL is too smart to anger their customer base like that.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
Neither DC nor NYC are acceptable sites since they don't have a dome. Minneapolis was OK for that reason plus they had wonderful interconnected walkways between buildings which do not exist in the aforementioned cities. In addition to that the whole Minn-ST.Paul area was totally devoted to the game. Not going to be that way in the other places.
