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

Anyone who has posted in the Spin Zone over the years has probably figured out that I don't have a very high opinion of the Mormon religion (just as many have a low opinion of my evangelical Christian faith). Still, Mormons are generally seen as honest to a fault. It's just just crazy to see this happenning. I hope for his sake he turns out to be a victim of a hoax. It's better to be seen as an honest fool rather thana dishonest fool. It seems highly unlikely that he was not in on it, though. I mean, this was a really elaborate long term hoax, and extremely difficult to pull off without Teo's knowledge, and with no apparent purpose other than to embarrass the guy, if he was not in on it. If he was in on it, Teo looks to have some deep seated psychological problems. That would be a huge red flag for any team considering drafting him.
Mormons honest to a fault, really? Last year we saw one of the most high profile Mormons lying through his teeth every day for the purpose of personal gain. I didn't see any fellow Mormons calling him out for it. Now I'm not going to call out all Mormons as pathological liars just because Mitt Romney is one, but I'm certainly not going to view Mormons as honest to a fault after seeing Romney lie and his campaign say they were not going to let fact checkers influence what they will say.

Psssst...they're all liars...shhhh...don't tell anyone.
I'll leave it up to your interpretation to decide whether I mean politicians or religions.
can someone cut to the chase on the facts on this? too lazy to read about it
My take: 50% hoax, 40% predatory opportunist, 10% innocent, dumb kid. Teo is a kid - 20 or so. Being dumb at 20 is nothing new - been so forever. And nothing wrong with that. Time was, society protected the young from the ugliness of the adult world until they learned for themselves, from incremental experience. Not these days.
Now, all over the internet, the tv, the radio, this kid is getting piled on...he's the topic of the day.
That's shameful. Folks ought to leave it alone. Leave him alone.

Why would we leave him alone? His story has been shoved down our faces for how long? Now that we find out it's a farce, we deserve to know the truth.

Why do you "deserve" to know the truth? Do you think you have some sort of claim on a total stranger? Does everybody here or anywhere have to know everything about you and yours if something became hawked by the media? Who do it for the $.
Of course not.

Of course not.
If I told my story to them for personal gain? Then yes, they do deserve to know the truth.
This story will one day soon become an incredible case study in a J-School. For the time being though its one of the most bizarre and weird stories Ive read in a long time.
COMING SOON...
