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

Well, at least some one did a little more research on why a Tampa-2 team would release a guy that appears to be pretty good at getting to the QB. It's why I'm leery of putting too much stock in anyone's garbage....they're usually cut for a reason. I think we have a fine pair of young guys(Williams and McCargo) who will probably be pretty good. And maybe Tim Anderson will manage to at least take up more space with the weight he's added....but I doubt that one, and I'm accused of homerism. But I'm not putting it past him. I don't want to get embarassed like last year with Josh Reed....
Well living in Tampa I think I know a bit more about what goes on here then any others on this site. WHy do most guys leave Tampa?????? GRUDEN!!! That why he will not be the coach here anymore. He actually would be perfect for Buffalo becasue he doesn't know how to deal with BIG STAR ego's!!!! HE gets rid of any guys that were part of the Dungy era....Trust me Wyms would be a great addition to this team..
This is off topic, but interesting.....evidently Gruden has issues with Chris Simms...according to TBO.com, he wanted Simms cut, but the Glazers insisted he stay:
Well, of course Chris Simms remains a Buc.
He wasn't among the 21 players the Bucs cut Saturday.
For now, he has been shoved back down Jon Gruden's throat.
Maybe that will change in the next few days or weeks, but until it does, well, who would have thought that the most interesting position battle this preseason would be between Gruden's position and the Glazers' position?
Edge: Glazers.
Anyone who watched or listened to Gruden's postgame comments the other night could feel the friction.
Does anyone really think Gruden, of his own free will, wants Simms on this team?
The mere mention of Simms makes Gruden's face congeal.
It's the same face he used to make when Keyshawn's name came up.
Keyshawn was eventually toast, because the Glazers were still backing Gruden to the limit - world championships will do that.
This is different.
Gruden can confuse Luke McCown and Bruce Gradkowski with Joe Montana and Johnny Unitas, but that's not going to keep Simms from being a Buc if the Glazers want him to be a Buc.
....
I think the Glazers see Simms as an asset, and not just because they've invested millions in him. In a way, I think Simms represents the future to the Glazers more than Gruden does.
Simms might not be important to Gruden, but he might very well matter to the next coach if Gruden fails to win this season.
This is off topic, but interesting.....evidently Gruden has issues with Chris Simms...according to TBO.com, he wanted Simms cut, but the Glazers insisted he stay:
GRUDEN has issues with anyone on that team that he didnt draft....He is a toolbox. He was handed Dungy's championship team and has wasted that team since he cam on board with Bruce Allen. WHy do you think Rich McKAy got the hell out of here!!!!!!
Shelby I know a few of the Bucs and they have plain out said that they don't care for GRUDEN, and you know this will probably be the last year in Tampa for him...
i know. i was always a huge fan of Chucky. i hate to see this disappointing letdown as his career here fizzles.
To be honest I have never been a fan of his. He never gets along with the star players. Look at the guys that have left here all FAN FAVORITES. SAPP, LYNCH, Keyshawn, Brad Johnson, and he has never been a ALSTOTT fan. Im not a Bucs fan but I do follow them. I think they are in worst shape then us. But at least Buffalo has TRUE fans...

The Seattle Seahawks have added experienced defensive line depth, and perhaps a little inside information on their opening day opponent, reaching a contract agreement with versatile six-year veteran Ellis Wyms, who was released Saturday by the Buccaneers.
The Bills see weakness's on the team in the following order:
1) DE
2) S
DT is not an issue for them for some reason. They like the guys they have otherwise they would have gone after MANY of the decent DTs that were avaliable in FA this season.
That's not to say they wouldn't look at a DE that can also move inside.
