What he doesn’t have an old 32 kicking around, loser

He would have had one but the robbery didn't go according to plan so he had to steal a 25. Number 1027820 wouldn't fit on a jersey

Acquitted or not, he's still an embarrassment.  Either take his name down or start inviting him to all the team ceremonies like all the other wall of farmers are invited.

 

Dont need to do neither. He is in the wall for what he did on the field. Is not invited because what he did off the field

What Simpson did on the field will always be in the record books and the highlight film.  The Wall is for players who best represent the franchise and community.

 

So if the Pegulas are comfortable with inviting Simpson to the next team ceremony (now that he is out of prison), keep his name on the wall.

 

But if they leave his name off the invitee list when they add, say, Fred Jackson's name the wall, because they don't want to seat a criminal, wife-beater next to Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, or Ralph Wilson's widow, then they should take his name off the wall, because the wall isn't meant for those who embarrass the community.

As late baby boomer kid too young to remember the AFL champ teams but grew up with OJ and 2000 in 14 friggin games with Fergy at Qb in the 70s.    Still his name needs to come down from the wall.    I say that as a human being. It is embarrassing.

It definitely is the criteria.  Cookie stood against racial injustice in the mid 60s.  

 

Jim was never arrested or convicted of a crime.  He has also invested his time and money in his charities and has been an ambassador for the team.

 

Nobody in the Bills organization wants anything to do with Simpson.  He's repulsive to the majority of the fanbase and the larger Buffalo community.

 

His records will always stand.  You can watch his highlights on Youtube, but if you can't invite the guy to speak at a booster meeting without disgusting the audience, he doesn't deserve to be HONORED on the wall.

Show me the criteria. Must be in writing
