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

These videos are fun but just remember this is college. 99% of the guys on defense will be selling insurance and not playing pro ball.

I wish noone brought T Hen up, I hate even hearing his name. He played like a warrior for several years but I rmember him now mostly as a guy that quit on the team, was as dumb as a stump and cared more about weed than football. And also as a guy with zero morals. So let's hope Johnny White isn't another T Hen.

do you blame him for quitting on the team? They friggin drafted gimp-kneed McGahee to sit on the bench for a year after Henry was coming off of back-to-back 1300+ yard seasons where he averaged over 4 ypc. And this was behind a **** OL on a pass-happy Kevin Gilbride offense.
I won't defend his drug use or careless womanizing, but I can't blame him for quitting on the team when the team treated him like that.

Agreed. McGahee was a total waste of a pick not only for that yr since he was clearly not going to contribute, but for years to come!!!

I'm truly surprised you would say this. I think Henry had a right to be disapointed in the McGahee pick in some ways but absolutely positively no way does that give him a pass to quit. These guys are pros, they get paid to do a job. The idea that because a team drafts another player at your position you get a pass to quit is outrageous. The only correct response was to play as hard as he could- either he shows he deserves to stay as the starter or he gets moved to another team, either way he gets paid a lot more than by quitting.
Now I'm not defending the McGahee pick, I wanted Eric Steinbach in that slot, but I will say this- I know why Donahoe wanted an upgrade at half back. 1) T Hen had already failed one drug test 2) The team was aware of T Hen's "fertility" 3) T Hen was a poor receiver 4) T Hen although a productive runner, was not a "home run threat" and defenses did not respect his ability to break a long one. McGahee was thought to be an upgrade in all those areas. Turns out he was nearly as dumb as T Hen and not a good choice. But the fact is if McGahee had started from game 1 in 2002 we make the playoffs easily- T Hen going through the motions AS THE STARTER in the first 5 games got us off to a 1-5 start, that's just a fact.

i cant blame donahoe on the mcgahee pick. the dude was a freak before he hurt his knee. he was 226lbs and ran a 4.28 at miami. he also benched 400lbs and squated 515. he was a monster. he was not even close to the same player after the knee injury. his speed was unreal and then it was gone. kinda sad...

My brother and Travis used to be very close friends, and are still friends to this day. And i totally disagree with the sentiment that Travis quit on the Bills. Travis was one of the most humble, generous Bills players I have met over the last decade. Obviously the problem with Travis was he suffered lapses in judgment all the time. That being said Travis fights depression very bad, and always has. And one thing Travis would turn to when he was depressed was weed, which was a horrible mistake. It's unfortunate though that Travis is dumped upon by a lot of Bills fans when probably the most popular Bill's player of all time (Jimbo) had a hard time keeping his nose clean in his early years in Buffalo, same thing goes for Marino in MIA.
As far as the kids goes, Travis isn't the only professional athlete who fathers numerous children with different woman. Although Travis has a stupid amount of kids. Luckily, as far as I still know, he's married and not planning on having any more kids.
While Travis was in Buffalo he truly was a warrior, the man played a whole season on a broken leg and got rewarded by the Bills takes Willis in the first round. And after that the coaching staff and front office pushed Buffalo out of Buffalo so they could please the crowd favorite (Willis).
