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!
FACEBOOK EVENT: Don't go into the game on November 1st!
It's about time us fans do something on a larger scale.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Re: FACEBOOK EVENT: Don't go into the game on November 1st!
Someone on the Bills forum came up with this idea, and I think it has merit. All fans attending a Bills game should wear black, as much as they can. Could be jeans, hoodies, or suits for all we care.
Why? For two reasons. Because as the original holder of the idea said, we are going to a funeral, 1, and the cameramen and TV announcers will not be able to avoid it. Security cannot confiscate your pants, and everybody has black something.
Facebook, telephone, twitter, word-of-mouth, whatever. Get the word out.

there are only 3confirmed guests.... not really blowing up
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I am going to mention this on my NFL.com blog so make sure it is all set up and raring to go. I need Pat to write a story about it so I can link his story. I don't want to link a facebook page because there are a lot of fans out there who don't use facebook and would have to create an account to view it. Pat, can you do this?

I already have my article written about the Browns game and little preview for the Jets. I will wait to send it in until I can get a link from Pat or anyone else.

Pink would be a better idea.
I hear you, but everybody knows what the color black means; nothing good. If you black out the TV broadcast, who cares? Black out the inside of the Ralph, and who could not notice what is going on?
Re: FACEBOOK EVENT: Don't go into the game on November 1st!
what is it about people that they believe wearing black or not going into a game is really going to make a difference? I mean, it's kind of selfish to just do something so you can feel like you are doing something and ratiionalize you are helping. Helping would be not buying tickets or merchandise in the first place. Buying up the tickets and then not going to the game is going to do what again?
Re: FACEBOOK EVENT: Don't go into the game on November 1st!
I think this is a great idea. As soon as I thought about all the Bills fans showing up dressed in black it reminded me of a funeral .lol Bye Dick!
unfortunately being here on the west coast , it's harder to make a statement .
I might just send some flowers to the Bills Clubhouse for Jauron memorializing his funeral. ..
Or maybe we could take up a collection and any zoner going to the game could toss some flowers on the field for those of us unable to attend. sort of a Bills Zone special touch! . I'd say dead pansies are pretty much the style of this organization these days!
