he was pretty awesome tbh. I think he still has the rushing record for a 14-game season (the seasons are longer now)

one of the greatest. still has records standing from the 70s, was in the pro bowl like half the time. probably did a lot of steroids and definitely did a lot of cocaine. which, combined with the typical brain injuries from football probably contributed to some of his later legal troubles

OJ suffered a similar curse to Barry Sanders in that he was stuck on a bad team that was never going to win a championship but he still kicked incredible rear end

yeah, he was #1 first round draft pick. which means you go to the worst team lol. and the bills didn't figure out how to use him properly for a few years so he was kinda stuck with them

oj simpson once filmed an episode of a TV prank show. one of the segments had him pretend to work at a car dealership. he attempted to sell "his" white ford bronco (actually it was Al Cowling's white bronco in the chase) to bewildered bystanders. in the show, the bronco had a bullet hole, which was bizarre since nobody fired at a shot at anybody at any point of the OJ simpson case

on the question of how good oj simpson was at running it might interest many of you to know that oj simpson was so good at running he made a cameo appearance in the hit television show roots as guy who was good at running

quote:

Less typical, each episode opened with topless strippers dancing around Simpson, who is dressed as a pimp. He sings his own rap song, which includes the lyrics "Don't you know there's no stopping the Juice / When I'm on the floor I'm like a lion on the loose / Better shoot me with a tranquilizer dart / Don't be stupid, I'm not a Simpson named Bart."

I'm pretty sure there's also a segment where he goes through a fast food drive through blackout drunk and berating the employees about orange juice

so apparently ojs children with nicole were present when he died

as an oj truther i find this information oddly validating since it seems unlikely theyd have wanted any relationship with him at all if they thought he did it

Caitlyn’s connection to Simpson is part of the Kardashian/Simpson web. Robert Kardashian Sr., the first husband of Caitlyn's ex-wife Kris Jenner, was Simpson’s best friend and eventual lawyer during his double murder trial in 1994.

Kris, 68, was part of the friendship, too, though she didn’t take Simpson’s side. During the trial, Kris fought for justice for her friend, Nicole Brown Simpson — the athlete’s murdered wife.

With a split Kardashian household, Caitlyn eventually married Kris and took a similar stance on Simpson’s acquittal. In a previous interview, Caitlyn remembered the Kardashian kids taking the trial verdict as truth when Simpson was not charged with the death of his wife or her friend, Ronald Goldman.

“I remember the day the verdict came through and [the kids] came in and they said, 'I told you he didn't do it,'" Caitlyn said on a 2009 episode ofDr. Phil. "We sat down and I said, 'Look, just because he got a not guilty verdict doesn't mean he didn't do it, and I just don't want to hear his name anymore.' And I had a lot of conversations with Robert to try to make sure it didn't tear the family apart."

Caitlyn has been long vocal about her belief that Simpson got away with murder. "Obviously he did it, and he got away with it, and at one point he even told Nicole, 'I'll kill you and get away with it 'cause I'm O.J. Simpson,” she claimed while appearing on Big Brother VIP Australia.

Kris shared more details about her friendship with Nicole in her 2011 memoir, Kris Jenner . . . And All Things Kardashian. "Nicole had been beaten up by O.J. and she had been keeping this physical proof in the form of photographs and, it would turn out, other evidence, in which she had documented 17 years of abuse," the book explained. "Nicole really wanted someone close to her to know what was going on, so that somebody — namely me — could be a witness."
