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

NESN (New England Sports Network, an all-sports cable outlet owned by the Red Sox that broadcast their games) is reporting doctors have cleared Tedy Bruschi to participate in the Patriots offseason program.
This doesn't mean Tedy is coming back, but it is a sign that it is a possibility.

I hate to say it, but im glad to hear he is coming back. He seems like a class guy. I hope he returns to full health, but has lost all his football skills along with the remaindr of the Pats!!!!
That's great news, no matter what you think of the Pats. No one wants a player's career to end like that.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
But we is the heart and soul of NE's D. Good for NE, bad for the AFC East
bad for the entire NFL. I so sick of these guys winning. I really hope this is the year SOMEONE takes those ****ers out- I don't even care if it's the Dolphins, Cowboys or Titans. I just want to see the Pats LOSE.
Good for Tedy. I hate the Pats, but is only a game. This guy has more heart and soul than most others, so I would never wish him anything but luck....except on those 2 specific Sundays each year.
He's crazy to come back. There's no reason for it. 3 Super Bowl rings, a ton of cash. Name recognition. Why risk his health and future? Makes absolutely no sense. Just plain stupid.

I hope he says that he could play but the injury opened up his eyes and now he just wants to sit on the couch and watch his toddler grow up.
I hope that he will come to his senses and recognize that there is more to life than coming back as a player. Unfortunately the very drive than helps a guy overcome a stroke like Bruschi had can make them want to try to do things that aren't wise for someone with that kind of medical problem--I know because my father had 5 strokes and I saw the way that he reacted to them. But, a brain injury--which is what a stroke is---isn't like injuring any other part of the body because it is an injury that will eventually recur no matter how careful one is. And, playing in the NFL, where hits to the head are common, with a history of stroke is about as stupid as boxing professionally with a history of bleeding in the brain--it's just incredibly dangerous.
For his family's sake, I hope that Tedy will rehab with all of his might until he can do everything that he could do before his stroke and, then, call it a career.
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.
