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

Looks like the Lions are going to interview Singletary for the HC position. Now, from my experience, he hasn't had the time in grade to jump up to the HC position. But, everytime an analysis mentions Singletary's name, they have nothing but great things to say about him. How he's an amazing motivator, smart, and ready for the challenge.
I'm interested to hear some of your thoughts on this.
I think fiery players of his caliber don't necessarily make good coaches. I'm not saying it can't happen and he wouldn't make a decent coach, and there are exceptions in many sports — but they're exceptions.
I'm having a hard time thinking of recent great players that became great coaches in the NFL (maybe Landry as an all-pro), because all I can think of is Art Schell, a great player but mediocre in the coaching ranks. Or Herm Edwards. Great player sure, but average coach if that.
I think most of the best coaches we've seen in recent decades we’re either average players or only played college ball: Belichick. Parcells. Shula. Gruden. Madden. Cowher.
I think the greater the player, the more they expect those under them to play like they did, and it‘s just not possible, so frustration builds in.
bump!
Mike Singletary is exactly what this team need!
As Draftboy said, give him the DC now and you are also paving bases at HC if something happens...
