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

The vultures are circling over Roger Goodell and pressuring NFL owners to dump the commissioner for what has become Ray Rice (Video) Gate. So far, it’s not working. The owners still have his …
That's pretty hefty. I don't know how many CEO's make that much, most of the time those people's pay are tied to stock option kind of stuff that they cash in later on if they do good job. And those guys are mostly workholic (more of a passion type). Other people are of unique talent, e.g. Mick Jagger worth about $280 million personally. I guess Goodell can catch up to Jagger's wealth in easy lifestyle by the time his current contract runs out (2019).
What's what the Goodell witch hunt. Is it viral or in vogue? I fail to see what he did wrong. It's easier to prove Rice hit his wife than Goodell saw the tape. What value would there be in his hiding this. There is no money grab in this, the NFL would not have lost revenues if he banned him for a year the first time. Does anyone here think for themselves? Why would the commissioner hide this information, there's nothing in it for him. Personally I think its those that think they are "entitled', that are incredibly jealous of anyone successful.
Lou Saban: You can get it done, you can get it done. And what’s more, you’ve gotta get it done.
He should pay the cheerleaders with his pocket change
I was banned for calling Yardie a coward, by DB, in a tread about women’s issues happening right now in America. Nothing better than republican men silencing women’s voices, especially in the Buffalo Spin zone!!

I agree on the base level.
Goodell is not going to be fired over this, either. The right thing was done in the long run, anyway. Nobody can prove that Goodell saw the knock-out punch tape previously, can they? Yet they assume he did. Like you say, what would he have to gain from ignoring that footage? Was it worth risking $44 million-per-year to cover up what happened? I highly doubt that. That does not make any sense to me. Ray Rice was the guy that committed the act. Goodell wouldn't stick his neck out for him.
Why aren't people flipping their lids about the Ravens not cutting Rice's ass immediately if this video footage was so readily available?
The tape of Rice dragging his fiance out of the elevator was bad enough to warrant more than a two-game suspension, and he's already admitted that he dropped the ball with that sentence. But, as far as I know, this was an on-going criminal investigation.
Anyway, this is all on Rice. He's the bad guy here.
They let Pacman Jones back in the NFL. Let Ray Lewis stick around. Michael Vick. Ray Rice may very well be done, though...we'll see.
I am not against Goodell for Ray Rice, I am against Goodell for how the game of professional football has devolved into something almost as farsical and rigged as WWE. I know, hard hitting defenses cause injury and permanent physical handicaps in many retirees, but there is almost no defense now, the same teams win almost every year, there are way too many commercials, its just well . . . . almost boring.

I don' think you can blame one guy for all that. You can scapegoat him, but he's not operating in a vacuum. He's just part of what happens. If he's replaced, some other guy will have to play with the same politics. Can't see the NFL being all that much different with a different commissioner.
The NFL isn't that boring if you have NFL Sunday Ticket and can switch between games during commercials or watch the Redzone Channel whenever you want. DVRs can help. Bet on the games too, if you don't want to be bored. Suddenly, you'll really care if the Ravens beat the Steelers, for example. Give you a real chance to have more aggravation in your life too, especially when the officials make BS game-changing calls.
