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

If you like giant, golden statues of bison, you’re in for a real treat. The two renderings are viewable in the gallery at the top of this article, or at the link above.
Following the release, Bills COO and EVP Ron Raccuia joined WGR 550 to discuss the renderings, and also dropped a few more interesting nuggets about the stadium. While we didn’t learn much new from what we previously knew about the stadium’s design, some additional details emerged.

Honestly the lower bowl looks the same, but the upper layers are stacked closer to the field with a small lid for a roof. Pretty underwhelming design IMO given other new stadiums popping up.

Outside the stadium includes a plaza the team is calling "family circle" that features three large buffalo statues. The Bills want the plaza to be a gathering site year-round for the community and said the exterior was built to highlight "the team's desire for a visual identity that reflects some of the historical architecture of Buffalo, while also delivering a modern appearance." The exterior allows for some visual of inside the stadium from the outside.
Uhhhhhhhh......If they were really interested in the plaza outside the stadium will serve as “a gathering site year-round for the community....” they would build in the City of Buffalo......NOT Orchard Park.
What a joke.
And it seems that the race for governor has the stadium deal becoming an issue that the GOP challenger is promising to **** it up if elected....
As the parties hash out the final details of the Buffalo Bills stadium deal, the agreement has become a flashpoint in the race for New York governor.
Republican Lee Zeldin on Tuesday vowed, if elected governor, to reopen the pact and negotiate an agreement that requires far less taxpayer money than the one crafted by Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul.
"We can absolutely have a better deal," Zeldin said in response to a question from a moderator of the Spectrum News debate.
snip...
People involved in negotiating other stadium and lease agreements say the sides in this case all want a deal to come together, but the longer the talks go on without finalizing the contracts, the greater the risk it all falls apart.
Further, according to state and county representatives, reopening the deal could prompt the Bills to ask for even more public aid and would allow the team to start talking to other cities once its Highmark Stadium lease is up after this season.
“If Congressman Zeldin wants to watch the Bills play in Austin or Orlando or St. Louis or San Diego he certainly could re-open the deal,” Peter Anderson, a spokesman for County Executive Mark Poloncarz, said in an email Wednesday.

WNY cannot do anything right when it comes to a football stadium. They ****ed it up 50 years ago, and may be on the way to ****ing it up in 2022.

As much as I want the Bills to stay in Buffalo and get a new stadium, it does seem like the taxpayers got a raw deal.
But, I think Zeldin is full of ****. He's just doing it to appeal to conservative and libertarian voters who don't like government spending. He can't just tear up a signed agreement because he doesn't like the terms, at least not without legal ramifications
