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!
This is only a test
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 http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/forum/feedback-forums/billszone-q-a/6521455-upgrade-report-bugs-here

Lionel Gates inactive again... WTF

According to VCOACH, RB Lionel Gates is inactive again. I don't understand why. We don't need this game. I would love to see the young guys get their reps and especially him. He shined in preseason and camp...let's see what he can do.

It is the regular season. Most players have too much pride to treat it as a pre-season game. If MM and the staff did not use the starters and best players, there would be a major revolt.

WTF, I lived in Jacksonville, FL when this kid played in Highschool and he is simply amazing. I can't understand whats up with MM for doing this but its a mistake and I hope that he leaves buffalo and play for a team that will use him.

MM is gone

Guys he is a fricken 7th round pick in a league where running backs are a dime a dozen. I will almost guarentee the guy is never a starting on any team. Chill out with Lionel Gates.

He's better than Shaud Williams and should be the #2.

Why would we do that? That would be good coaching and God knows we don't have that!

Based on what??

Gate has never played in a game. We have no idea if he is better than Williams.

Williams is no star but has played well in limited time.
