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!
Three Bills in two years...Congrats to both...I am guessing Joe D won't have OJ present him...I wonder who is the next Bill from Super Bowl years to be inducted. My guess is Ralph, then Thurman, then Andre. Tasker will get in but probably in another 5 years...
If the article about Ralph bailing out the Raiders and Pats gets more exposure that may be what it takes to put him in the HOF. Wonder what jersey Lofton will put in the Hall,Packers or Bills?
I beleive that there is an NFL rule that the team you served longest on is the team represented- although all teams played for are mentioned and displayed.
It keeps the Wade Boggs of the world from "selling" the team he will represent in the HOF, as he will be representing the Tampa Bay Devil Rays
Joe D should go in as a Bill. Lofton is borderline Packer/Bill. More years with the Pack, but his real glory came with the Bills. More playoff games, the SB appearances, and Pro Bowls later in his career sure put him in the spotlight with us as well. I'm sure he'll go in as a Packer, but will seriously acknowledge his playing years with the Bills.
Originally posted by Dozerdog My guess is that he may have used his influence to get a borderline candidate like Joe D in.... if it came down to choosing one or the other.
From what I'm hearing about Joe D, he should have been a lock years ago. He should have nevr been borderline to begin with. We all knew his value to the Bills, but not until I heard about the "rankings" some expert put together about all of the O lineman in the league, did I see were he stood. Evidently no one else did either until this year. Congrats to big Joe!!
