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

Every year, a good team that goes onwards to become great has defining moments and defining games. Games where you see what the team is made off, games that are symbolic of overcoming all odds. The difference between winning and loosing is so small, its so narrow, its literally a game of inches. I believe that this weeks game against the Jets will be a defining moment for this young Bills team. We will find out if they are Contenders or Pretenders, we will know if this season has been a trick or a treat!
I think that we have already come a long way towards establishing an identity: gritty, tough, never-say-die, cast-offs, complete with the (admittedly cliched) blue-collar work ethic.
I am so glad that we don't ooze obnoxiousness like the Lion (who are clearly overcompensating after an even worse history of irrelevance than Buffalo), and that we go about our upstart status with some dignity.
It seems that we have already had some defining games towards this collective character. Why put it all on the Jets game and discount the good stuff we earned from earlier ones?
No offense but I think someone has said this every week!
The season is still young, the team is still young. We learn more and more everyday.
Go Bills
Yeah, every week someone makes a thread about how this game is a true test of if this team is for real or not. Win or lose, I can guarantee that someone will make another thread next week about the significance of beating the Cowboys in Dallas.
This game is a division game against a team that is only a game back, so it is big.
It is also a game against a team with the largest media market in the US, so it is big.
It is also a game against a team that was built and carries itself (Big $$ FA & trades, high profile glamor boys, big-talking coach, etc) in complete contradiction to that of this Bills team (UDFAs, low round picks, confident modesty, high-character, small-market underdogs), so it is big.
