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!
I find it unbelievable that Buffalo's last Monday Night Home Game was September of 1994!!!! I think the league must do a better job when scheduling these games. That is ridiculous!!!!!
Anyone else have thoughts??????
Ralph Wilson does not want Monday night home games due to the fact that the Bills are such a regional team. Fans would have to take both Monday and Tuesday off from work to attend a game.
Let's Go BILLS and SU ORANGE![IMhttp://www.billszone.com/fanzone/attachment.php?attachmentid=&stc=1G]
That must explain why the Bills had 13 consecutive primetime road games.

Monday October 23, 1995 at New England Patriots L 14-27

ABC says that they do NOT choose the games for Monday night, yeah right. After October the only northern MNF games are in a dome. Buffalo does not rank as a warm, or major market site for these games. Perhaps this year, we may get a Sunday night game, or even the Thanksgiving game with Dallas. Remember what happened the last time an AFC east team played on Turkey day.
When I die, please don't let my wife sell my camera equipment for what I told her I paid for it.
I thought the Bills did not want home night games because the fans drink all day in the parking lot and are to rowdy and drunk by game time. I read that somewhere. Just can't remember where.
No kidding, Ally.....J7 and I were driving 10mph all the way to the airport that day. Talk about bad roads....but we made it safely and in plenty of time that we could grab a bite before her plane.
The fact remains that Buffalo needs more home games during prime time. It's only fair, and with Bledsoe and Co., much more entertaining for the non-Bills fans.
They will never exceed more than 1, unless they can swing it on a saturday night. And since there are no prime time games early in the season on Saturday night, it probably won't happen.
There is a decent chance they might get a national game on a Saturday at home, though- possibly involving the Jets.

As a long-time season tix holder, I'd rather not have any prime-time games. They're a pain in the neck, with the late start and getting home at about 3 in the morning. They also wipe you out at work the next day.
I'd rather have the whole schedule at 1 on Sundays like this year. With Bledsoe and a rising team, I'm sure the Bills will have 1 or 2 prime time games, and maybe a home game this year- didn't Arizona even have a prime time game this year? that doesn't mean I'll like it, but I'll be there.
Argue like hell. Keep it clean. And when it's over, shake hands and root for our team!
