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

Nine players did not make the trip with the Dolphins. Some were excused for medical reasons. At least one, wide receiver Chris Chambers, did not make the trip because he did not know about the flight being rescheduled for Friday.
Wannstedt refused to identify the players who missed the trip without permission.
There were reports earlier in the week that the Miami players did not want to go get on plane and fly to a game while their families were left behind to deal with Hurricane Frances. I'm guessing the flight time change was an out given by the Dolphins Organization so that the players could stay behind and help evac their families without facing reprocussions from the NFL for not playing.
The thing is who will make final roster will be affected by who "forgot" to get on flight. I doubt any of the bubble players missed it but whenever you change the mixup you get different results. Different bubbles get popped by Fins this weekend.
Oh please, don't pull a muscle while you guys reach that far to find problems with Miami. Miami has enough problems right now, none of which does this fall under. This is a non issue. The only players that missed the flights were starters. The starting defense didn't even paly anyway, so it wasn't like it was a do or die situation. Chambers just used it as an excuse and I really think you should concentrate on your own team's real troubles without trying to think of more for Miami.
Cant say that I blame the players for not making the trip. I heard on Rome the players wanted the NFL to cancel the game, which they should have, but god forbid the NFL cant lose that precious revenue while players' families are left behind to deal with a hurricane.
I bet that if they had to lose a paycheck their opinion would be different. Since players no not get paid (in their opinion) for preseason games they see no sense playing at all anyways. If veterans had their choice only people trying out for team would appear and they would all get 1/4 more pay for those games.
Lots of people in REAL jobs need to work even though their are problems at home.

I dont see too many people in Florida working right now or yesterday. Whether its a "real" job or not family always takes priority. Its not right for the NFL to play a game while players are wondering if they will have a house to come home to.
The difference is those people are not getting paid. We had a hurricane in VA area and government closed down and VA declared emergency (no driving) but my work made me go home after already reporting to work and we needed to take vacation time or make up time within short period.
Those who were in New Orleans did not get refunds for tickets or discounts because name players did play. When NFL moved game of Bills vs Washington last year those who paid for tickets and such did not get refunds even if they had to leave to catch flights.
Players need to accept they are in the real world and have to play sometimes thru bad situations.
