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

It's actually quite tempting driving up there. But so far none of them is willing to give up a ticket for me to watch the game with the group in stadium. I do admit, drinking before 10am is not my thing though.
if you feel like you want to go just go. those days usually end up being gold memories however they turn out
one big game cant remember which my mom and dad both wanted to go to the game with me but i only had two. i had never had a problem getting a single and even used my moms temp pass to park in the cripple lot near the scalpers post kick off bunker (near the fieldhouse) since that never fails to find a single. well it failed, first time ever for me. then we actually fought over whose offer to not go in we would accept. then my mom insisted she would just watch from her little tv in the car, so dad and me grudgingly went in since the game was already started
the first few minutes in the seats was weird bc we had left mom behind. it was tougher to get into the game. my dad tries to cheer up the mood by saying you know your mom i wouldnt be surprised to find out she finagles her way in somehow. i think he actually said finagles. not ten minutes later my phone rings and its very staticky and for thirty secs i can barely hear my mom saying i ... game ... you ... fun .... i said to my dad, i think shes telling us to have fun, yeah thanks mom we will, we love you. then suddenly like some freakin dramatic movie moment she pops in loud and clear, im in the game, somebody gave me a ticket and im in the players family section having a ball ...
lmao!!!
we had a great time. she kept calling us to give us updates which players mom she just high fived, etc. but i think we lost that one. maybe not, who knows, they all meld into one big blob eventually. doesnt matter, was another great day at the stadium
Great. Gotta make sure the whole country is paying attention when NE puts one of their typical ass-whoopings on us.
you generically going with 38-3 for all games, unless proven otherwise? :-)
i am with you that the wild card is always the refs. even getting jobbed in the jauron years, the first game is always close. its the second game where they've perfected their film analysis and all their dirty tricks where the blowout happens.
i think the bills will lose this game because the pats are just getting more emboldened to cheat as they keep coming out unscathed. why would they change that now, especially with the bills looking fairly dominant and only 1 game of film.
until the NFL puts and end to it. the same old will happen.
The entire nation with the exception of the New England area is going to be rooting for the Bills to win this game. Heck, I even think the NFL brass wants us to win this game. A win over a team as despised as the Cheaters will alter people's perception of the Bumbling Bills. As Bills fans, we should be enjoying this moment in time!

Yeah that's the problem. It seems like no matter who the players and coaches are, they find ways to embarrass themselves when people outside of WNY are paying attention. The abysmal performance in the Toronto series and night games are proof (especially the choke jobs against NE and Dallas).
No matter who the players and coaches are, we have struggled in games where people outside of Buffalo are paying attention. No matter who the players and coaches are, we have started strong before and finished poorly. That's not the past. It's the present until proven otherwise.

I don't understand why you are so down about this. I'm not trying to be combative here, but do you think we're cursed or something? Sure, we choked in epic fashion in the past, but that doesn't mean we will in the future, right? Sports has all kinds of stories about teams being crappy one year and then turning everything around and winning their championship. The ball has to bounce our way sometime. This season is as good as any.

There is no relevance at all. Owner, GM, Coaches, and most importantly players are all different. I submit what happened in the past has no bearing on what's going to happen Sunday.
The only thing carried over is the name Buffalo Bills and the fans, who remember the history. Unfortunately we fans have no bearing on the performance of the team. So take my advice -- take it easy. It's a game. Enjoy every game as a new experience. Curse if they lose. Repeat next week.

You know what would be epic? The Patriots believing all the circle-jerking in Boston and then getting a can of reality whup-ass opened up for them on Sunday. I know I'm letting myself up for a huge let down. I know Brady is 23-3 against us. I know the Bills always manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
So what? So long as there's a chance that we can all come in here on Monday and wallow in Upchuck's sorrow, that is all the motivation I need.
