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

Not bad for a team that doesn't know what it's doing.
Weird, you can put a guy that isn't all that good on a talent-less team, and it seemed to work out fairly well. Hmmm... I guess anybody can get lucky once in a while.

Lmao- 4 years of useless trade deadline moves. One trade deadline acquisition shows competence for a month, and suddenly the team knows what it's doing? I love it how the last 4 weeks consistently makes you forget about the last 4 years.

OP, don't get to worked up...this is how he posts about both franchises...it's his thing. Wait til something good happens, then say how stupid it is for anybody to *****. It's kind of humorous...
As far as I'm concerned, Regier gets a clean slate. I have not been impressed by him, at all, in the past. I am not sure if it was him, Quinn, Golisano, or even all three that made these lackluster moves to improve this team. So with a new regime in place, willing to do what it takes to win, I will give him the benefit of the doubt. As of now, he is a plus 1 with the Boyes pick-up. Just my opinion.
I know this is being petty, but wouldn't this be the first pickup by this regime. I understand it is the same GM, but new regime.
It's still Darcy making the decisions. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, because Quinn and Golisano may have pulled the purse strings so tight that he had no chance. And the Boyes pickup is encouraging that things may have changed for the better.
That being said, it still doesn't make sense to let 4 weeks of good play from Boyes erase all the past failures like Torres, Brenier, Zubrus (although I don't think Zubrus was as horrible as the rest), Moore, etc. On top of that, we still haven't clinched a playoff spot. Beebe's Kid is premature in his praise. He doesn't like it when people criticize the team- no matter how apt the criticism is- so he can't wait to throw it back in their faces when the team does one little thing to prove they aren't completely incompetent.
Hard to argue. I liked him a lot as a Bruin but Sinden let the team collapse around him. When he traded Thornton.
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.

Agreed. IMO Zubrus made the whole play on the Drury goal against the Rangers in the playoffs taking out two Rags in the corner, by himself. That alone made the move worth it.
