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

What do you guys think of this trade if it were to happen? It could add another weapon to our backfield, possible even to our whole Offense. We might even be talkin about draft picks in this trade.

Nothing in that article states that this trade is even being considered....Westbrook isn't being traded, they want a compliment to him in THEIR offense
Man Im sorry but that would be the dumbest trade in a while. Why trade for Westbrook? The guy is a featured back in Philly and would want to be one in Buffalo as well. The last thing we need is to have Willis pissed off at us when he has a super agent like Drew.
Philly isn't looking to trade Westbrook. Westbrook is one of their biggest weapons and a key to their offense.
Their interest in T.Henry serves two purposes: it puts pressure on Westbrook to accept their contract offer, which he has not signed yet; and would give them a tough, experienced runner that they could use to spell Westbrook in short yardage situations in much the same manner as they used Dorsey Levens.
For some reason (unbeknownst to me, but that was extremely frustrating since Westbrook was one of my FFL RBs last season), Andy Reid does not like to give Westbrook the ball in short-yardage situations or down on the goal-line. It didn't matter if Westbrook gained every one of the 65 yards from the Eagles 30 to the opponent's 5, once Philly got inside the opponent's 10, Westbrook was either only used as a decoy or on the bench. With D.Levens getting up in age and losing effectiveness and C.Buckhalter trying to come back from a very serious injury that could severely limit his abilities, T.Henry would give Philly the kind of hard-running RB that they want to spell Westbrook, but there is no way that they would give up Westbrook--who is the ideal, versatile pass-catching and running threat for their offense--in order to get T.Henry. A draft choice? Yes. They have draft choices to spare and T.Henry has the kind of experience and proven toughness that they can't get from a rookie like JJ Arrington, et al. They might be willing to part with a 2nd rounder to get T.Henry.... I doubt that TD would be willing to settle for less than that now that he has three teams interested in making a possible trade.
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.
I don't think the Philly deal has any truth behind it at all---posturing by both teams to attempt to help each other out with their RB situations.
Tampa may have come back into the mix just because they may think the price for Henry might come down to what they're willing to give.
I stiil think Arizona for Shelton will get done this week.
I truly believe the Tampa Bay deal will get done. Tampa wants to get QB Smith or one of the top WRs in the draft and are looking to move up. If they get Henry, that fills the RB slot. It makes too much sense with everything else that they're trying to do.
Philly is probably trying to put some pressure on Westbrook to sign his 1 year tender offer. It does help to put some pressure on ARI and TBB though...
A move to the top of the second makes for a good move by TD; enables us to pick a quality OLineman (Baas?), a pdg DB, or a wild card (Jones?) ... and then still use 55 for Nuge. There's some very high quality players at the top of round 2.
A move for the bottom of the second is waste ... but at any rate, it's good to spike up interest and pressure on Gruden and Green.
By the way ... I just don't see how TB can both move up to get Alex Smith AND trade for T-Hen. They'd have to yield their 1 and 2 just to get the pick they want. What do they have left for Henry???
what the last four years of a Republican House, Senate and Presidency has gotten us ...
tax cuts for the wealthy in the hundreds of billions
1,000 dead American servicemen
the U.S. Constitution trampled upon
our national debt growing into the TRILLIONS of dollars
implicit lies and consistent obfuscations of the truth regarding Iraq
I can hardly wait to see what four more years will get us.
