Yes. He started the AFL, saved the AFL, and now, hindsight is beginning to tell the entire league that he was 100% correct in 2005 when he didn't vote for the CBA. All that on top of the championship team that he's been the original owner of since 1959. We may make him the scapegoat now for the Bills recent troubled, but there's no way is Ralph not a hall of famer.

Ralph did some very importiant things for the AFL. That is why he is in the AFL hall of fame.

I do not think many owners should be in the pro football hall of fame. If an AFL owner needs to be in the pro football hall of fame, it should be Hunt and/or Davis.

With Ralph's overall winning %, and no Super Bowls wins, I do not think he deserves to be in the pro football hall of fame.

But Ralph is a Buffalo Bill, therefore I voted that I would like to see him in the pro football hall of fame.

Yeah, too bad he didn't own the team during the early nineties. :rolleyes:

 

Ralph has owned the team for 49 years. How many winning seasons have the Bills had?

My answer: Sorry Ralph, but the HOF is for winners only.

Owners do not get into the hall of fame because of the success of their teams, its for "contirbutions" to the game. By your logic, Kraft and Jones are shoe ins and have done absolutely nothing but take from the game and in fact have tried to destroy what has been make successful by owners like RW who see the greater good.

Anyone who does not think he should be voted in just because of the recent struggles is short-sighted. What the man did for the AFL speaks volumes about his commitment and character. Ralph is a Hall of Famer.

How many winning seasons have most teams had? :rolleyes:

 

The average would be 50%.

 

The Bills have had a winning record in 21 seasons.

 

They finished below .500 25 times, and went 8-8, 3 times.

The Hunts did more for the AFL than Ralph.

 

I think the standard should be higher for an owner, than a player.

 

Ralph has been a pro football team owner for almost 50 years, and has only one major accomplishment. That's like saying Desmond Howard should be in the hall because he was a superbowl MVP.

There is no official AFL Hall of Fame. The only AFL Hall of Fame is the one created by a fan of the league who has an un-natural obsession with the league. Hardly credible.

Hell NO, !@#$ Ralph, and take his name off the stadium after he is dead.

Rico, you gotta stop holding back or you'll give yourself an ulcer. Tell us how you really feel. :rolleyes:

Personally, I think your AFL obsession is perfectly natural.. :rolleyes:
