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!
This is only a test
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

Today marks two weeks since the National Football League wrapped up its season. Locally, fans still are going through withdrawal despite the Buffalo Bills' failure to reach the playoffs for the 12th straight season, the league's longest drought. The next meaningful game won't take place for another seven months.
Imagine if there wasn't a next game.
Imagine the Bills are gone. When or why they left doesn't matter, not for this thought experiment.
If the Bills left Buffalo, there would be no reason for this message board to exist so you would have to find a new board for your LA team. I can tell you it would not be as good as this board.
This is the best Bills board, but the worst Bills board is better than the best Bucs board.
10 Commandments of the D
1. Never stop Rocking.

4. All Religion should be taxed.
5. Cut down on carbohydrates.

7. Never believe what people tell you after a show.
8. Always take a spoon full of Metamucil after a heavy day of eating.
9. Get at least 9 hours of sleep a day.
10. Eatin' ain't cheatin'.
Buffalo is the second poorest city in America. If the Bills left, it would shoot them to number one ahead of Detroit to the number one spot. (pop. over 250,000)
I'm sorry, but that article doesn't talk enough about the depression from the city and how it would lead to more people leaving the area, especially the younger generation.
Oh and I agree with Historian. The Buffalo Bills are not leaving anytime soon and now more than ever, do I believe it. I find it so hard to believe that Ralph is so idiotic that he wouldnt set up some kind of plan to keep him in the heart of Bills fans when he passes. If he didn't...and they leave...his name would be worse than Art Modell to the city of Cleveland. And all the good he's done thru the years would be tarnished permanently.
They won't leave Buffalo, because God wants Bills fans to suffer a lifetime of suffering. Them leaving Buffalo would put an end to suffering, and would be a mercy killing. Not gonna happen.
that read like a "let's prep the area" in case they do leave. let them know financially we are better off, but the punch on the mouth will feel significant.
There are posters on this board that have followed this team longer than I have. I personally have invested more than 30 years of my life into to this team as a fan. I am not from WNY, and I would still be devastated because the Buffalo Bills are what I've known for so long. I could only imagine how much more significant it would be if I actually had been from WNY. There are some things in your life that are around you long enough that when you lose them it's comparable to losing a close family member, loved one, or really good friend. That's a big part of your life that would be gone, probably forever. That article misses that point in so many ways. JMO
