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

...i have come to hate this guy even more. Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't this guy that "WYS" idiot who used to post on the other site 20000000 times/day? What a pile of crap this guy always writes, has to be the most negative, pathetic loser there is. Humpty? Wow this gets me pissed.
Yep, the Humpty thing is really juvenile. I couldn't get through one of his post much less one of his articles so when I see his name or Bills report I skip over it.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.
He left her becausehe got tired of people calling him out for all his blind commentary thinly disguised as analysis. He's never been sold on McGahee (a TD selection). Now, he's super hyped about Shaud Williams. He's all about the pieces, all about where we've been, not where we're going, and refuses to acknowledge that the Bills organizaation might just know a bit more than he does. I mean, they see everyone up close everyday; he's in VA, but he sees what they don't. I don't bother reading his screed.

This should be an interesting game both to watch and analyze. It should be an entertaining matchup worthy of being televised. If the Bills are truly the team that fans are reading about nationwide, a win here should be a given. A loss here justifies none of the current talk of greatness and success this season. This is a must-win game to prove improvement over last season. The Bengals are a .500 caliber team with a weak defense through and through, nothing more. If the Bills cannot beat the Bengals with as much "on the line" as there is, then they are not playoff caliber. It is that simple.
The guy is such an ass.
Is he a Bills fan if anyone knows him?
While I agree this is a must win, if we don't win, how does this show we are not a playoff caliber team?
The Bengals beat the Ravens in Baltimore two weeks ago, so I guess the Ravens aren't a playoff caliber team?....Bengals have been competative all year, if we lose, it won't be because we aren't a playoff caliber team.
He gets joy at brining down all the optomistic Bills fans.
You're right, I am a coward! I haven't any courage at all. I even scare myself.
Why are his reports on the BZ front page? He was ousted or left on his own however you look at it, but his reports aren't insightful as a true reporter would write. They are written like he has an axe to grind with the organization.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.
He has a stick up his butt about Donahoe, Bledsoe, and a few others such that, no matter what happens, they deserve all the blame and none of the credit. He was a huge advocate of Travis Brown, but was nearly apoplectic about the acquisitions of Milloy and Big Sam Adams. After last year's home opener, some of us ribbed him about his slams on Adams and he didn't take it well. Aside from the fact that he has never learned that, in writing, "less is more," what credibility he MIGHT have gets lost in a morass of words for the sake of words, and a complete lack of objectivity. He'll even contradict himself-within the same piece-just to grind one of his axes.

My reaction is pretty much the same as everyone else's. If Weiler aspires to any credibility as a sports journalist, he cannot let his bias take the form of insulting names. Of course, it would be better if he could write without bias, but let's hope for small steps first. If for no other reason, it would be nice to see Buffalo crush Cincinnati so Weiler would look stupid to any readers who still respect him.
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.
I could go on and on, but it's beating a dead horse. My professors at school write a decent book, then milk it for journal articles until it's no longer relevant. Then they write another book.
Wys does the same thing- he came up with some good criticisms about Bledsoe in 2002, and just repeats them week after week, despite people constantly bringing out the flaws in his arguments. But unlike my professors, he has yet to move on to the next subject.....
He implies starting Bledsoe shows no confidence in Losman? Like a rookie QB is SUPPOSED to be the starter???
On a related note, Big Ben's success this year has a downside: every other rookie QB looks like a bust by comparison, and that's not fair.

At least your professors write cogent material, right? My Criminology/Corrections professor was a lot like the paper hangers you described; except that reading his material was on par with giving birth (as many women have desribed childbirth)-painful and tedious! Still, I'd much rather read the works of E. Scott Ryan than the amorphous diatribes that litter my Yahoo start page.
