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

Buffalo Bills
Ruben Brown, G. He goes to the Pro Bowl ever year on reputation. There are some Bills who insist he might be the worst of the offensive line group now. It's not that he's a bad player. He's just not Pro Bowl deserving.
The Pro Bowl is mostly a popularity contest based on name recognition as well as play. Heck, Tasker made it as a special teamer in a year he hardly saw any action in special teams.
Brown is probably an average player at this point, but if he's our least effective O lineman, we're in pretty good shape.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
I think its funny that all us armchair QB's think Ruben sucks but somehow he still gets in with the vote of the coaches and players, as well as the fans.
I hardly think coaches and players are voting him in based on his past reputation.
DIdn't our new OL coach say that Brown has the best technique in the league? I believe he said something to that effect during the preseason.
Ruben can still block. He gets stupid penalties which is why he irritates so many fans. He can still block. 1/3 of the votes come from fans. I'm sure that occasionally players get an edge from that but not year in and year out. Other players and coaches aren't voting based on popularity. Well, at least I hope not.
