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

...rather than backing up Losman- do we have to wait until June 1 to cut him? Find someone to take his contract in a trade like we did with NE last time? I guess what I'm getting at is how we can release/trade him with the lowest possible cap hit.
Eb/Clump- this one's probably for one of you guys.
if they are going to cut him the best option is probably to do it before 3/1...no need to pay him a huge bonus and then cut him...i broke this down someplace else...i will try to find it.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
So basically, the only way to avoid a huge cap hit is to either restructure his contract or trade him with the contract?
Damn, if we have to pay $4 million for him whether he's here or not, might as well keep him on the bench.
the Bills take a cap hit no matter what...that was the money they saved against the 2004 salcap...that was the damage by redoing the deal to keep him last year (not passing judgement about the signing, just stating the facts)...
the kicker is that the money they save by cutting him before 3/1 will go to pay for whatever back-up they bring in - so, no real savings...getting rid of him before 3/1 is just the way to ensure he is not a cancer to JP and the team...
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 imagine they might quietly talk to some other teams, like Dallas, to see if there is any market for a trade. If not I think he would be released. I don't see him willingly accepting a backup role on the Bills.
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.
Sorry---just can't see TD and MM putting all their eggs in Losman's basket for the 2005 season, unless he was damn impressive during practices late in the year.
I still think the issue is restructuring and competing for the job, not whether or not Drew has already been named the back-up.
