I know the weather was terrible but was Ralph at the stadium for Booker Edgerson's induction onto the Bills WoF? Mike Stratton did the induction - which is a little bit of a slap in the face unless Edgerson requested it that way.

Bigger question? Where was Ralph? Was he there? Was he at the opener? Was he even at training camp?

Absence from all of them is not a good sign at all.

Another week ... another loss ... another Eb thread pissing and moaning about Ralph ... and so the cycle continues.

You miss the point...not pissing...genuinely worried...he dies - they move.

Ralph's absence clearly points to declining health. Heck he's is 92, or just about to be. I only wish he was willing to work with Kelly and his group for a change in ownership. He's had 51 years. Time for the team to move forward, whatever that means.

He can barely speak. The local news showed him making his way to the locker room post game. He looks terrible and was surrounded with helpers.

The old man is fine.

He has more handlers than Stevie Wonder....

Ralph has been unusually quiet lately, so I would tend to agree with the poor health speculation.

Five years ago he took almost the entire time off the clock at inductions. And it got worse each subsequent year. I think bills pr keeps him off for the players benefit

I wouldn't have wanted to be out in that weather either.

They aren't moving (IMO) with new ownership.

But if they did, let it be. At this point watching them play and operate this way is becoming extremely painful.

I'm definitely worried about Ralph. He missed training camp for his first time ever at Rochester this year... :(

Absence from all of them is not a good sign at all. Mr. Wilson is a 93 year old man living in Detroit. I would suspect that he wont plan on coming back to Buffalo unless its a mandatory thing. Most discussions with Ralph by the organization heads usually happen in Detroit or by teleconference, and very rarely at the Ralph. He just doesn't get around too much anymore. That's why he named Brandon the CEO.

Ralph actually drove right by me in the stadium. Someone was driving him around.

He's gone from 91 to 93 in this tread. We must be dealing in BZ years here.

According to Wikipedia... October 17, 1918. He turns 92 on Bye Week Sunday.

They said on the radio this morning that he was at the stadium and was helped by handlers to the dressing room.
