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

People not only want to win, but blow other teams out. Look at the last few years of the Kelly lead Bills and the Flutie led Bills. That's all it was about was how we are barely squeaking by teams. We win in the last drive and we should have been up by 14. We win by 7 and we should have blown the team out. No matter what, some people are never satisfied. Go to a New England message board and you will probably see a bunch of fans that are pointing out all the mistakes that they have made. Remember how some fans in Miami during Marino's last years were calling for a QB change? I bet they would take ole Danny boy back even now at his age. Some people actually are not truely happy, unless they have someone/thing to ***** about. I can think of some on this very board.
I think it has a lot to do with being 28th in the league using smash mouth football. I agree with you though. If that McGahee toss wouldn't have made the first down everyone would have been here screaming that it was such a bad call. He got the first down so it was a great call.
All last season and the entire offseason everying was *****ing and moaning about us not having a "smashmouth" game plan.
All the "experts" (on many boards mind you) didn't once shut up about it.
NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN, we should "air it out."
Jesus ***** Christ!
got to remember, there were people complaining about not playing smash mouth football after SB XXV...there are just some that want "3 yards and a cloud of dust"...until of course, the Bills lose.
The same goes for screaming for AVP in past years (who was so great that other teams beat his door down when we cut him in 99), Matthews...until he loses...Losman...until he loses...
It's Buffalo...the fans here complained about the scoreboard when we were going to SBs...frikkin unreal.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
I just want them to do what works. Smashmouth football is good in theory, but if we can't do it then we shouldn't try. We need to put the ball in the hands of players who can make something happen. WM made something happen on that third down.

Hate to break it to you, but this is not a smashmouth team. A smashmouth team is able to ram the ball down the other's throat for 3-5 yards every time. We can't even seem to get 2 yards consistently.
We didn't know at the time that Big Mike's granny was going to kick the bucket and that he was going to turn into a 400 lb pile of goo because he won't be able to get any sweet potato pie from nana anymore.
