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

I want us to stick with him and add a few more pieces.
In my opinion, he's not our problem.
"I hope I can put that to rest," Nix said. "It's the age-old thing, and they've done it around here for years. They start over about every three years. What that does is make damn sure that you don't make it. That's what it does."
I totally agree with him. We've tried that over and over and failed.
You can dream all you want. I'm ready to drop my season tickets which I have had for 40 years. How you can think that we have made progress under the current regime is beyond me. The record speaks for itslelf.
If the Bills don't make the playoffs and Gailey is still here. My group of 8 won't be getting any season tickets next year. That's a total of 12. He's an awful head coach.
Well, if you have crappy seats it won't matter, but if you have seats you like, you may not get seats that good again when you want them.

Thats OK. Do it.
If it works, and Nix made the right choice, in a year you'll be back.

I had seasons for over 20 & dropped them this year (At one point I made every non pre-season home game from mid 1990-November 2007). It would have been a lot tougher to bite the bullet if I wasn't 295 miles away. I'd probably still have them if I lived in WNY. It's got to be tough to be that close & stop going on gameday. On the other hand, it's also got to be tough to go & watch meaningless game after meaningless game. Although many didn't realize it at the time, that home opener against the worst team in then NFL (KC) was as meaningless a win as just about any they've ever had. I just couldn't see the value in attending that game-it was the 1st time I missed the home opener since 1989 and I've been to 27 home openers over the years.
What happens is that as we get older, we realize we may never see a championship in our lifetime. Look at the Jets & Vikings. The Jets haven't been to the Super Bowl in 43 years, the Vikings haven't made it in 35 years. The Detroit Lions haven't been to any of the 46 Super Bowls. If we end up following that path it could be more than 25 years before the Bills get back, if they ever do as the Buffalo Bills. I'm going to be 59 soon, another 25 years would put me at 84, maybe unable to walk, like my father was at that age, or dead.

Damn you must really wear the Bills rose colored glasses or for some reason really love proven failures in the most important spots on an NFL team like GM, HC and QB.
Gailey is a proven loser. He isn't a young first time coach where it might take some time. The dude is 60 years old and was fired after only two years as a HC in the NFL and nobody else wanted to touch him with a 10ft pole after that. He even failed as a college HC after he had to bolt the NFL for another chance. I guess the Bills are smarter then everyone else though. That is why we have one winning season in the past 13 years.
When you know you have a dud you replace it. Waiting another year just for the same results only sets you back one more season. We stuck with Jauron for a 4th year too and how did that work out? Jauron was even more successful then Gailey has been as our HC.
The new choice might not work out but you have to at least try and find an upgrade. Sticking with a proven loser isn't going to get you anywhere. I don't take much stock in the opinion of Buddy Nix anymore either. What has this bum ever done? His drafts in Buffalo have been putrid so far and our team is even worse then it was when he took over. He couldn't even get a GM job until he was 70 years old. That should tell you something there too when nobody else wanted him after all of these decades. Once again I guess the Bills are smarter then everyone else on him too.

He is? Then why was he a proven winner everywhere (except Samford 5-6) before here? Please do your homework.
Nothing personal but I'm not that worried about whether you buy season tickets or not. Just me.
The Bills' front office will be. I would be willing to bet that there are plenty of long time fans that have had enough of this terrible organization and won't be renewing next year. Unless, by some miracle, the Bills make the playoffs.
Buddy nix apparently sees Gailey being here for years to come to develop the new draft pick. I don't see how all of these clowns aren't fired after the season is done if the Bills finish 7-9 or worse.
The official source for NFL news, video highlights, fantasy football, game-day coverage, schedules, stats, scores and more.
Also, in that video they show a play from the San Fran game. You can see that lazy turd Dareus just sit there like a fat slob. I think it's around the 3:15 mark.

No offense but the Bills aren't worried if you don't buy season tickets.

We still sellout almost every game.
Really? My local channel must have been wrong with all of them blackouts every season. The news media must have also been wrong about not the Miami game still not being sold out as of a couple weeks ago.
If we're having trouble selling out the Miami game then just wait until we're 4-7. Our last 4 home games will probably be blacked out. At least 3 of them. We sure do a great job at selling out our games though lol
