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

Now the Phins will have to make a decision on Oliver Vernon and Cameron Wake. Wake had more sacks in half as many games as Williams and Vernon had more sacks and three times as many tackles.
Looks to me that the Dolphins would have been better served signing their own players.
C'mon now, the guy must not be getting enough attention at home. Blondie must be on vacation or blowing the neighbor, I wonder how close he lives to Mario.
I can ASSURE you, that he gets PLENTY of attention at home .... Coastal was a smart man and married a chick what will throw a MAJOR ****ing temper tantrum when she does not get his attention... now go back to playing with your dick, it appears its all you got
I was banned for calling Yardie a coward, by DB, in a tread about women’s issues happening right now in America. Nothing better than republican men silencing women’s voices, especially in the Buffalo Spin zone!!

Whoa, where have you been this whole time? I'm surprised you found some free time to post now that Mario is in town, how's your jaw?
this has never been about Mario "Super Fool's Gold" Williams. This has always been about the decision making process that went into making him the highest paid defensive player in the franchise's and NFL's history.
We went all in on this guy and what was the return...
...16 years and counting. It's that simple.
If you want to make this thread about my hate or obsession with one person... that person isn't Mario Williams.
its Russ Brandon.
he has sold you the Fool's Gold and pawned it off as real.
All ive done is try to help educate you all as to the reality of what you bought hook line and sinker.
This is the best post in this thread. (I edited it down for brevity)
I haven't commented on the Mario situation, because I was taking a little time to digest it all, while focusing on hockey, but the crux of the matter for me, was that you could take more than a handful of names over the last sixteen seasons, and replace them with "Mario Williams".
Donte Whitner
JP Losman
Willis McGahee
Chris Kelsay
Leodis McDumbass
CJ Spiller
Torell Troup
Aaron Maybin
Then there's just the plain bad luck:
Kevin Everett
Look at some of those names. Players we went "all out on. Think about not just their performance, but the alternatives that we did NOT take because of them.
Mario Williams is just the latest in a very long string of splash signings, all in the name of selling tickets, to cover the fact that this has been a very bad football team.
The irony, in my mind, is that despite all this, ticket sales are again reaching record numbers. At this point I don't think anyone even cares about what goes on on the field.
They're just there for a party.
I'm with Coastal on this one, because of the pattern. Everyone misfires once and a while, but sixteen years of it, in the era of free agency, is unconscionable, IMO.
At some point even the Pegulas are going to tire of it.
The front office needs gutted, as does the scouting staff.
On a personal note, when your kid asks you, "Were the Bills ever any good?" it's kind of sad.
As bad as the '70's were, we at least had some successes.
The last twenty years have been painful...not to mention costly.
Here's a thread I started on a different site... I was bombed with hate over it.
Im still wondering why... 1 tackle for a million dollars...
can I get a woot woot?!
Here's the worst post in this thread, the very first one. It also includes the worst sentence in this thread, which is also the very first one.
Why would someone who was 'bombed with hate' somewhere else post the exact same thread here? What would be the point? This whole thread has been a big jerk off.

It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to understand that the front office of a team that hasn't made the playoffs in 16 years has made some bad decisions. However, you can't fault the current front office for making the decisions that were made 8 years ago. They should be criticized for the more recent bad decisions.

And that's the whole point to this thread. Just the latest in a long line of high profile misfires.
Go into the thread I just bumped up for you, and read my post #82.
These are the people I'm talking about. (and the service numbers come right out of the 2015 media guide) not Rex, Doug, etc.
This is part of the power structure that has been in place since at least Polian.
