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!

It was announced this morning that Eugene Parker, the agent to some of the best players in the NFL for a very long time, lost his battle with kidney cancer. Parker, 60, first discovered the cancer in November of 2015.
Represented Byrd and Peters and was somewhat a thorn in the side for the Bills over the years, but still sad to hear he's gone.
Man that guy hated the Bills and wanted to squeeze every last penny out of the franchise for players who often didn't deserve that much. That aside, I don't wish any ill on the man so rest in peace Eugene.

I don't think he hated the Bills. He just played hardball because he could. He knew the Bills were a second or third tier team and they had to pay more to keep a player. What we don't know is how much input the player himself had in the negotiations.

That's just the business side of the NFL.
Very true, I just felt like he took it to the extreme here.
We obviously don't know the whole stories but he always seemed to want his guys to walk away from the Bills. If not we had to over pay by a lot. I get it that it was business but that mantra does not entitle people to act like *******s which he seemed to be (to us at least)
With that said this is terrible news. Cancer is the worst scum of earth and you gotta feel for the guy. He was still very much active and had plenty left to live for. RIP
