Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. (born October 17, 1918, in Columbus, Ohio) is the founder, owner and president of the NFL's Buffalo Bills. He was one of the founding owners of the American Football League, the league that the NFL merged with in 1970.
Wilson grew up in Detroit, Michigan, graduated from the University of Virginia and attended the University of Michigan Law School. He is a World War II veteran. After the war ended, he took over the successful insurance business of his father and invested in Michigan area mines and factories. He eventually purchased several manufacturing outlets, construction firms, and radio stations, and founded Ralph Wilson Industries.
A minority owner of the Detroit Lions, Wilson got wind of Lamar Hunt's plans for a new league, the American Football League, to challenge the NFL. He tried to put together a team in Miami, but was turned down. His next choice was Buffalo. In September of 1959, Wilson sent Hunt a telegram with the words, "Count me in with Buffalo." He named his new team the Bills, after a previous team that had played in the All-America Football Conference from 1946 to 1949. On October 28, the Buffalo Bills officially became the seventh franchise of the AFL.

Re: Quick Research Questions

1) He's 89; he will turn 90 in October.
2) I don't know... I think it was somewhere close to 15, but don't quote me on that.

Add Al Wallace, Copeland Bryan, and Coy Wire, and you have the magic number: 17. You can verify on www.buffalobills.com.

Re: Quick Research Questions

I used general terms in what I did, so it worked out.

I said "approaching 90".

And I said "more than a dozen"

17 is more like a dozen and a half, it adds to the drama of how injured we really we're.
