# 32 Gets 15 Years

In Clark County court today, the 61-year-old former Buffalo Bills running back apologized, tearfully, to Glass. He said he had no intention of hurting his victim, and that he had only wanted to reclaim his property. He also admitted that he went about it the wrong way.
Judge Glass didn't buy it though, saying that Simpson was doing more than just "taking his stuff back." Before handing down her sentence she admonished Simpson, saying there was much more than stupidity behind his actions

Simpson will be eligible for parole in five on the kidnapping count, but with addition concurrent sentences it is unlikely he will serve fewer than 10 years.

Toronto

I can honestly say I am not looking forward to seeing the Bills play in Toronto. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if they would open the dome. That has always been something in our favor the cold, especially when the fish come to town. Well we will see how it turns out.......

Passing of Edward Samuel "Ted" Rogers, Jr

Statement from Ralph Wilson “I was deeply saddened this morning when I heard the news of the passing of Ted Rogers. Ted was a true visionary and a giant in the communications field. Obviously, he played an integral part in the Bills Toronto Series and it makes me very sad that he won’t be here to share in the historic game with us this weekend in the building that bears his name. He will be missed by many, many people for a very long time. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to his family and friends.”

Rogers suffered from congestive heart failure and died overnight on December 2, 2008, at his home in Toronto.

Rogers had been the owner of the Toronto Blue Jays Major League Baseball team since September 1, 2000, when Rogers Communications Inc. purchased 80% of the baseball club with the Labatt Brewing Company Ltd. maintaining 20% interest and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce relinquishing its 10% share. Since the 2003 season, he owned 100% of the team. Moreover, the Blue Jays' home ballpark, SkyDome, was renamed Rogers Centre after Rogers' firm purchased the stadium (including naming rights).
