For me the decision would be: Is this player's card part of a set or collection I was putting together? I have a couple of OJ cards in completed Topps and Kelloggs sets. I wouldn't put him in a football 'star' binder though.

I have a long-time project in which I collect a card of every player I've had on my fantasy football team (which goes back to 1980). In that binder is an Aaron Hernandez card. Ugh, but I'm not going to have a collection of 'every guy minus one'.

There are more than a few guys who are enshrined in the various sports Halls who were less than stellar humans. Everyone knows that. But if you start weeding out guys you aren't enamored with you then have a collection of 'Hall of Fame guys I like'.

If I had an NFL Hall collection I'd hold my nose and put a Simpson card in the binder.

Just my humble opinion.
