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!
Patriots Super Bowl Win Provides Storybook Ending To NFL Credibility
GLENDALE, AZ—Having defeated the Seattle Seahawks 28-24 Sunday night to win Super Bowl XLIX, the New England Patriots reportedly provided an incredible storybook ending to the NFL’s credibility. “Honestly, you couldn’t have scripted it any better in a movie,” said ESPN analyst Adam Schefter, adding that after a year…

And so does Dave Zirin. He sent out this tweet Sunday night: "One could not imagine a more crystallized way to end this awful, scandal scarred NFL season."
(All I can add is: Read him. You may not always agree with him, but he's got the big brass ones.)
John Hemingway(facing certain death): I want to see Buffalo win the Super Bowl.
David Coltrane(threatening John): Nobody's going to live that long, pal.

It's dumbfounding. I think they made a choice to roll the monetary profits dice, betting that the loss of older fans will be outweighed by manipulating an easy-to-convince newer generation weaned on and inculcated with the philosophy that the end justifies the means.

Re: Patriots Super Bowl Win Provides Storybook Ending To NFL Credibility
The NFL jumped the shark for me last night. It sort of reminds me of my proclamation that if the Knicks signed Latrell Spreewell then I was done with the NBA. They did and I think I may have seen one or two partial portions of a basketball game since. Last night was the worst possible ending for this season and I'm not sure if my fandom will ever be "reinflated" so to speak.
It is the perfect ending to a train wreck of a season regarding credibility and integrity.
You're not the first person to say this. See post #2.
