Gregg Posted July 10, 2023 Posted July 10, 2023 Curious to see when the new stadium is built if the Bills put OJ's name on the "Ring of Honor" or Bills Wall of Fame of whatever they will call it. From a football standpoint, he deserves to be on it. Given what he did and what a POS he is I could see how the Bills may want to remove his name or number in the new stadium and distance themselves from #32. Quote

I could see it going either way. Quote

The wall is not a monument to the great guys on teams past. It is a monument to the game of football. For that reason, forget what you think of OJ; he belongs on the wall; he's already there, and should stay there. He's still the BEST BILL of all time, bar none. You can't just revise history and remove him from it because he's a psycho multi-murderer who got away with it. Get him up there in the new stadium. And deal with reality. 1 1 Quote

Don Otreply Posted July 10, 2023 Posted July 10, 2023 Not gonna read the thread, So, did the scumbag have a heart attack or not, and if so did he die? I really hope he did or is at least have his health be so extremely compromised that he can’t even go for a walk ever again, and then dies a slow agonizing death alone. I think that about raps up my feelings on this matter. GO BILLS!!! Quote

We don't make fun of medical issues or wish harm on others. Expand This is a very enlightened perspective, chongli. And I mean that with no trace of sarcasm. The issue, for me, and I suspect many others, is compassion fatigue. I have to worry about all the suffering, crime, and needless wars in the world, plus a family issue that wears me out constantly and will for years, and at the end of it I have zero sympathy or care left for people like OJ. And the baser part of me will say good riddance when he dies. Or, if he suffers first, think that maybe sometimes karma actually happens (in truth, I don't believe in karma and think it's all random)... If I have any shred of compassion and care left in me, it will go to the victims' families all these years later before it goes to OJ. And my $.02 on the question of putting his name on the wall of the new stadium: Yes, it's meant to honor great players. But on rare occasions, greater issues in life — and greater values than respecting the highest level of sports accomplishments — should trump playing on the field, no matter how great. Respect for human life, and the disavowing of those who do not hold that respect, trumps a legendary career as a Bill. 1 1 3 Quote

Both he and Bruce are the 2 greatest Bills players of all-time but if the Bills organization chooses not to include him in the new stadium, I wouldn't be surprised either. Quote
