How much did it cost for players in the 60's and 70's? A hell of a lot less than it has in the last 20 years. He had good players back then just like he did in the 90's because of the team that Bill Polian put together. Part of the reason Ralph is in tbe hall is because he is one of the original AFL owners and left his mark on this league. If you look at the 54 years or so that he was an owner, the Bills were only relevant in like 18 of those seasons with 10 of them being between 88-99. There were a lot of bad Bills teams in the 70's and early 80's as well as his last 15 years of owning the team from 00-14. It has been said that Ralph was notoriously cheap for payijg players. How many times did we let great players walk with him as owner because he didn't want to pay them. Just because he is in the Hall doesn't mean he wasn't cheap. He's in the hall because of what the Bills did in the 90's and the fact that he is an original AFL owner and had a big part on the game that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
