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

Listening to WBEN, newscasters asks "How can Russ Brandon buy the Bills?" Followed by a sound bite about using the "revenue stream to pay the family back."
That will be my last day as a Bills fan.
But there's no freaking way the NFL will let this happen.
Re: Heresy!!! Are you kidding? Russ Brandon as owner?
Ownership rules don't allow this. To be the lead owner of an NFL franchise, you have to own 30% of the team. You can't finance that, you have to own it. You can't borrow it and pay it back, that money comes out of pocket.
So, if the Bills sold for $1B, Brandon would have to come up with $300M out of pocket, then have the ability to finance the rest or find a group willing to take smaller shares and have him own the thing. He doesn't have that kind of money, or connections.

Well, at one time Al Davis was nothing but a Head Coach of the Raiders.
Re: Heresy!!! Are you kidding? Russ Brandon as owner?
Yeah...rent to own in probably no going to work with an NFL franchise...especially in a depressed area, where their ability to generate revenue would be tremendously hindered by any sort of substantial financial crisis...which people with a lot of money are acutely aware may happen.
I think the Wilson's will take their billions and cash out. I am sure they love the success that Brandon has brought to the team, but I doubt they want to roll the dice.
Brandon is a WNY guy who would keep the Bills in Buffalo.
We could do a lot worse than Brandon owning the team IMO.
YES!!!! He WANTS to be in Buffalo, right?
When will you realize that the sentimental part of football is uniquely a fan perspective?
Anything that you hear out of somebody that is cashing million plus dollar checks is what is known as PR. This is where they work, and where they are trying to earn as much as they can.
