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

Anybody think RW's wooing of Shanahan is a ploy to boost sales for the Toronto?

Call me cynical but the timing is ironic...Ads are running everywhere...sales just aren't there. Do you think Ralph canned DJ and is courting Shanny just to promote tickets for the game in Toronto? Then, when that game is done the real search begins.
Thoughts?

Wouldnt suprise me, thats why when I hear about all the big name coach "talk" I simply cant get excited. Until one of these big name coach's are actually hired it means nothing IMHO.
Re: Anybody think RW's wooing of Shanahan is a ploy to boost sales for the Toronto?
As cheap as Ralph is, I can't see that scenario being the motivating factor. One game's revenue will hardly make up for the backlash if Ralph doesn't get somebody in here who can turn this trainwreck around yesterday.
Re: Anybody think RW's wooing of Shanahan is a ploy to boost sales for the Toronto?
Umm...why would Ralph care what happens in Toronto? The Bills already made their money from it. It's all up to the Rogers family to market the game and make more money.

I think the move deals with him selling a good product in general. Whose going to want to move a ****ty team to Toronto that nobody wants to watch?

Re: Anybody think RW's wooing of Shanahan is a ploy to boost sales for the Toronto?
No...and you are cynical. To suggest is this is a ploy is ridiculous. You know why? Because if Shanny says "yes" and the Bills suddenly back off, the jig will be up. And don't say "the Bills knew Shannahan would say no" because how many people would say no to a $50M and a piece of an NFL team? I swear...

Huh? Ralph allegedly wooed Shanahan just to get the Toronto game sold out? How does one make the connection there? Do you think Shanahan will be coaching that game in Toronto?

A big name coach won't help till hired. Won't happen till aster the season. Won't help this years game.
