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 else think a Wonderlic score of 5 (was it?) can barely manage one position and not 4.5? Lol, lets see, he's big, fat, somewhat fast, strong, and stupid. I think he could be our next starting DE/OL/TE/FB/gatorade boy.
"It's not whether you win or lose; it's how you play the game."
Seriously, Jason Peters is so good we should put him at tackle, backup running back, DE, and backup safety. There was a reason he was drafted so high, make him earn his pay.
From all the reports it looks like he is the next tackle so that is easy.
He is big and fast so he can easily play running back.
DE, what a great idea.
Safety. He is big and fast so he can play safety.
Oh yeah, he can still play tight end on every third play.
I reallt think his best position could be DE or DT. He's so big, strong, and fast. He would create so many mismatches and would start getting double teamed. It doesn't matter that his Wonderlic score is 9. All you have to do is tell him to kill the guy with the ball.
As I thought, some guys would run with the "let's make him our kicker" jokes. Very funny.
He didn't make the team last season - picked up later for the Practice Squad, because he couldn't learn the playbook.
My point is that wouldn't it be easier to tell him "wait for the ball to be snapped and tackle the guy with the ball." rather than him having to learn complex blocking assignments on the Oline?
Basically, is he an OT prospect because our Oline sucks worse than our Dline?

That sounds like a good idea, but you do have to understand plays also for defense. Otherwise you get caught in over-aggressive situations in plays such as reverses, draw plays, middle screens, etc.
I have confidence that...if anyone can teach him blocking techniques to be a good O-lineman, it is McNally.
Hell, maybe Peters ought to run for Erie County Executive. He couldn't be any dumber than Giambra.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
