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

Re: JP Losman's new nickname is the Dirty Sanchez!
And the opponents will REALLY fear him if all the fans are caling him "Dirty Sanchez"... I'm sorry, but if you believed any one saying JP is a great player, then shame on you. He's a second year starter with 3 games under his belt. He needs to earn his greatness on the field, which (believe it or not) takes more then 3 games to accomplish. He's not supposed to strike fear in the heart of defenes, especially ones as good as Tampa and Atlanta. I admit that he has not been very good at all. But either has the rest of the team. It'll come to him over time.

Maybe not here at this pace, do we really need another pretty boy surfer like Robby Johnson here to kill us?
Right now I wish he would take his place on the bench and turn the keys over to dad.

Wouldn't he look good on our line right now?
Hell I would even take Reuben at this point!
I remember seeing reuben in the tops commercial pushing around a grocery cart and thinking that cart isn't full enough for him, lol. I would take him now, we need something.
Fantasy movers and shakers beware. A ravaging case of Losmanitis has infiltrated Buffalo like Seinfeld reruns on cable, ransacking fantasy points quicker than Blackbeard stole gold.
J.P. Losman, the Bills (1-2) sophomore quarterback, finished 10 of 23 for a measly 75 yards and an interception in B-squared’s 24-16 loss to Atlanta on Sunday.
The Tulane product, a first round pick in 2004, has not thrown a touchdown and is 22 of 51 for 188 yards in Buffalo’s last two outings (two losses) while accounting for just three passing first downs in both games. Another textbook symptom: his 61-percent passer rating on the season.
Losmanitis has poisoned everyone from wideouts Eric Moulds, Josh Reed and Lee Evans, the front men of a unit with one TD catch so far, to the Bills acclaimed defense -- if a QB fails to move the ball, the defense will see more time on the field. It already faces significant time without two-time Pro Bowl linebacker Takeo Smith, who injured his right Achilles’ Tendon in the loss.
Wait a minute!
FANTASY FODDER
Jerry Miller asked his Grandma for Redskins tickets as a little boy. He begged and begged, pleaded even. Instead, she gave him Redskins Totes, socks with rubber footballs on the toes and heel of the feet. Jerry has never been the same since.
Whatcha talkin’ about? What about Willis? He was strong today and had a good Week 1.
Oh, McGahee, as in Willis McGahee. Sure, the Bills back had a strong fantasy outing, but let’s take a closer look at the numbers shall we.
Of McGahee’s 140 yards, 64 came off four carries: 12, 21, 13 and 18 yards. Subtract the four and McGahee’s line is much less John Stamos (27 carries, 140 yards, 1 TD) and much more Bob Saget (23 carries, 76 yards, 1 TD).
[Cinematic aside: In keeping with the “Full House” theme, John Stamos’ character Jesse Katsopolis was known as Jesse Cochran in season one until Stamos asked for his character to be of Greek heritage in season two.]
Now back to reality -- fantasy football.
McGahee was able to houdini his way to 140 yards on Sunday because the Falcons were unable to stack the box to limit the run the way Tampa did in week two (McGahee’s line: 13 carries, 34 yards, 0 TDs).
Because of injuries, Atlanta was down to three cornerbacks on Sunday, so the play calling had to be conservative to protect a glaring weakness in the secondary; one Losman failed to exploit.
As a result, McGahee tumbled to a buck.forty on the ground at the expense of an aerial assault that has seen about as much air time recently as Doc Brown’s Delorean.
In Week 1, the former Miami Hurricane rushed for 117 yards off 23 carries against the Texans (0-2), who entered their by-week Sunday second to last in the league in rush defense at 143.5 yards per game.
“I don’t want to second guess what they wanted to do, but at some point, we have to be able to take shots down field,” Moulds told reporters after Sunday’s game.
No Dah!
Still you feel pain in your heart for Moulds and company (it’s not the bacon-double-cheeseburger) after such a lousy showing in back-to-back weeks.
Here’s a guy who caught 88 passes last year for 1,043 yards and 5 TDs. An hombre who has 44 TDs to his LuceDale, MS name. Yet through three games this season, the three-time Pro Bowler has just 8 catches for 66 yards and zip, zilch, zero, nada in the touchdown department. If Moulds continues on this pace, he’ll finish the season with 42 catches for 352 yards.
Holy Losmanitis!
And it’s not just Moulds who’s aching. Reed has 9 snares, 101 yards and 0 scores to his credit; sadly, slightly better than Evans’ 7 catches, 87 yards and 0 touchdowns.
Is it airborne? Passed through contact? Through the water?
The brats at the stadium? Please, not the brats at the stadium.
Anything but the brats at the stadium!!!!
No! It’s passed through inexperience, poor decision making and a simplified playbook.
Thank God it’s not the brats. Is there an antidote?
Well, since last year’s signal caller, Drew Bledsoe, is out of the picture: You remember him, right? The guy who’s now picking apart secondaries like Thanksgiving turkey -- 63 of 98 with 6 TDs and 2 INTs -- for the 2-1 Dallas Cowboys, despite getting Gilliganed out of Buffalo for having the mobility of a Model T.
It leaves only one option: Kelly Holcomb. Who? Kelly Holcomb, the former Indy and Cleveland quarterback, he’s the backup in Billville.
