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!

Every player is bound to fall off sometime. He's still solid at worst. at least we've got a good line all around him.

I think Ruben has a couple years left, but if he's not now, next year he will be considered the weak link in the O-line.

I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

Anyone know the cap implications of cutting him after this year? Could we save money, and use it to sign his replacement?

It's just a case where he gets elected based on name recognition...why do you think Steve Tasker got elected in 1995, when he hardly played special teams at all that year?

nooooooooooooooooooo!!!! am i the only one that likes reuben? granted he hasn't been up to his old self this season, but to toss him out on his butt after all the years of hard work he has given this franchise would be a crime. he is a leader to our young o-line. and definatly a more than average gaurd. he is a future wall of famer and got a great chance to be a future hall of famer. i want to see this guy retire as a bill, he is a class act and does alot for the comunity through the untited way. he was one of the only vets to play with us for our 3-13 season, he played through the flutie-johnson deal. he has been through alot with this team, and he deserves to be there when we win the big one next year.

It is His Attitude Towards Training Camp & The Pre-season

Brown is still NOT in regular season form. I wish I could get through to WGR550) on Tuesday night when he has his show and tell what a fat a** he is. I think he has the physical attributes and talent, but NOT the right attitude.
