BillsNYC Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Included in my email to our members today:  Ralph Wilson  A movement has started to get Buffalo Bills Owner Ralph Wilson inducted into the Hall of Fame. The fact that he is not in there is simply a travesty. Mr. Wilson is the man who saved the AFL when it was in financial trouble, saving teams like the Bills, Chargers, and Patriots. He has kept the team in a small market like Buffalo, and is against teams moving between cities.  Please sign this petition to get Ralph Wilson into the Hall: http://www.petitionthem.com/default.asp?sect=detail&pet=1392 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsNYC Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 BillsDaily just added it from our email: Â Wilson For Hall: Ralph Wilson has constantly been passed over for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He has all the credentials to get in. He saved the AFL by lending financial support to the Oakland Raiders to keep them afloat in the early days. This saved the AFL from folding and started it on the journey to merge with the NFL. So it can be said that Wilson's accomplishments made the NFL was it is today. He also has steadfastly refused to move the Bills to a larger market and kept them affordable for the declining Buffalo market. He is once again on the preliminary list to make the hall. Lend him support by signing in on-line petition. Sign Petition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't live up there, so I'll have no idea if anyone brings it up (or even reads their email), but it can't hurt.
