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

Do most businesses have a clause to step in if the CEO seems like he or she has lost it mentally? is the NFL kind of unique that they let al davis still run the team.
i know ralph is still with it, but he is in that age bracket where he may start to lose it. is there nothing the nfl can do about that? they allow for teams to be run straight into the ground?
does anyone find that odd, or can any large business choose to do the same?
I'm sure if the blundering became so obvious that something had to be done the NFL would try to jump in... but the fact is Ralph is acting the way Ralph has pretty much acted the majority of the time he has owned this franchise. Kinda hard to say he is losing it when you compare 2000's with the the 2nd half of the 1990's, the majority of the 1980's , and the 1970's

lol!
My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

i'm not saying ralph is losing it right now, but it's not to be unexpected to see a man his age start to lose his mental facilities before he does pass. i would think that the nFL would want to make sure the team doesn't fall apart.
you'd think they'd have stepped in with Al Davis at this point. his coach in cable is awful (with or without the legal issues), his player selections created the whole crabtree mess. it's a joke....and if it weren't for his joke, the bills would be next up in line.

like you said you'd think they'd step in in Al Davis' case but they have not.
It would take some seriously obvious and almost intentional blunders before the NFL would step in. And once they do step in the legal fallout would probably tie up any such attempt for quite awhile.
If he was left uncapacitated in any form I'm sure his family would take over operations as is stated in his will and other legal documents. If Ralph was not cognitively capable but insisted on running the team anyways then their might be reason
Bottom line it will take a very extreme circumstance for such a move by the NFL
I agree with PW. If there were some sort of mental health clause, Al Davis should have been in the loony bin years ago.
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?
