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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Tentative agreement in place between the Bills and the Pegulas
Tentative agreement in place between the Bills and the Pegulas
Tim Graham @ByTimGraham 1m I'm told tentative agreement has been reached between the Bills and the Pegulas and an official announcement should come today.
Joe Buscaglia @JoeBuscaglia 2m League source tells me that the deal between the #Bills and Terry and Kim Pegula is done. Now just pending league approval
The whole "Buffalo will move when Wilson dies" stuff has been hanging over our heads for 20 years. It feels so damn good to put this crap to bed
I am not from Buffalo, and the closest I've have ever been to the actual city is to RWS back when I had season tickets when I lived in Rome, NY. I absolutely could not be happier for all of you Buffalonians on this news. I absolutely did not want to see my Bills play anywhere but in Buffalo. Congrats to you all! I think it's time to sdtart a Pegula statue fund in the same way us fans started the "fire Jauron" billboard fund!

It's not over yet. We're not going to keep the Bills in Buffalo at Rich Stadium. We need a new one.
Best chances are with Pegula, and I expect that he'll build a stadium with his own money if need be, but until that announcement comes I'm not sure I'd count the chickens.
Who knows, maybe it will accompany the announcement, but I doubt it. I'm sure that Pegula wants to maximize his chances of getting maximum state funding.

It's a protection mechanism.
You shroud your childish approach in a vale of pompous, intellectual garbage in an attempt to look smart and "real". You over-analyze even minute points and manipulate statistics to fit your negative view of the team. Again, to feel good about yourself and to protect from getting hurt.
Of course, the criticisms are obviously from someone who has no understanding of the team concept or what it takes to excel at athletics.
The true "realist" understands that they have no control of what happens on the field or behind the closed doors at One Bills' Drive, so they do the prudent thing for a spectator. They enjoy the games on Sunday with family and friends, cheer for their team and realize that it's just entertainment.

"I was an integral part in the drafting process of EJ Manuel," Whaley said Thursday on NFL Network's Total Access. "I was the person that handled the draft process and setting up the board."
"We are committed. I want you to believe me when I say that," Whaley said of building around the second-year quarterback, per The Buffalo News. "I always tell you guys that I'll never say never because I don't want to paint myself in a corner, but when I do say something, I do it and I mean it and I try to fulfill it."
"We believe the addition of Sammy is going to be instant impact, not only to our quarterback, but to what our offensive coordinator can come up with game-plan wise and how defenses attack us," Whaley said.
Whaley on EJ Manuel: "We think we got a gem in this guy." (2:30)
"And as Mark says, if in three years maybe he's not [our quarterback of the future], then I'll be sitting there saying 'hey guys', .... anybody got a job for me?" - Doug Whaley
