OJ Simpson dead from cancer

Here’s another gem from this farce of justice. I remember watching it live. Absolutely hilarious at the time. Howard, Robin, and Bababooey milked this for weeks.

 

He took up acting, was in some Police Squad movies and yada, yada, yada, died of cancer.

 

White House press sec said our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time. lol hilarious

 

And Mark Fuhrman was

 

Wow! Good find. And I had forgotten about the Kardashian angle. Ugh!

 

"Against the Jets last week, Buffalo Bills running back Thurman Thomas broke O.J. Simpson's career rushing record, and the week before he surpassed Simpson's career touchdowns. Next up for Thomas: an attempt to kill three people at once."

I'll tell ya, @wingtee ........don't ever ask me what I'm thinking because it's never what anyone thinks.......

 

I miss Norm terribly. All time legend

Kevin Drum speaks truth

Many years ago—pre-blogging—I wrote this about OJ Simpson:

Yes, OJ was guilty and got off. So have lots of white guys. But that's missing the point. Why did the jurors unanimously believe it quite plausible that the LAPD planted evidence and lied on the stand?

That's pretty much still my basic take.

OJ and the LAPD - Kevin Drum

 

This is the one he’s got now.

 

Sadly, I cannot say that I'm the least bit surprised and I strongly suspect that there have been similar agreements protecting other high profile college (and almost certainly professional) athletes.

 

Al Michael's knew the code and tipped off Peter before paying Paul.
