FILE - In this Nov. 25, 1976 file photo, Buffalo Bills' O.J. Simpson rushes through a large hole in the center fo the Detroit Lions defensive line to score on a 12-yard run for his second touchdown of the game in an NFL football game in Pontiac, Mich. Simpson added some "Juice" - rushing for a Thanksgiving Day-record 273 yards - to what wound up as a 27-14 Bills defeat at the hands of the Lions at the Pontiac Silverdome on Thanksgiving Day 1976.

Former Buffalo Bills running back O.J. Simpson has joined Twitter.

What could go wrong?

The Bills’ No. 2 all-time running back announced he was joining the social media site early on Saturday morning with a brief video and the caption, “Coming Soon!!!”

In it, Simpson shares that he will be sharing his thoughts and opinions on just about everything.

Hey Twitter world. This is yours truly. Coming soon to Twitter, you’ll get to read all my thoughts and opinions on just about everything,” Simpson says. “Now there’s a lot of fake O.J. accounts out there, so this one, @TheRealOJ32 is the only official one. So, it should be a lot of fun. I got a little getting even to do. This should be fun. So God Bless, take care."

In an interview, Tyson mentioned that when he sees people with face tattoos, he thinks they’re insane, completely forgetting that he has one himself. 

 

Lest ye forget, he used to be a competitive racer of pigeons. 

 

Look it up.

[but Tyson is in the upper class gated community of life]

 

he doesn't spend his day having to get along with everyone he comes across, on the subway, at the grocery store, at a normal job trying to pay the rent or mortgage

 

for those outside the upper and extreme lower classes, having a face tattoo is making it uphill to get taken seriously if you have to persuade strangers of your point on view on a disagreement

Those Mindhunter interviews really are unsettling.

I remember Simpson on the Bills sidelines conducting interviews during the early SB years. He must have been coming apart by then.

Having seen Simpson’s note that Robert Kardashian read in 1994, this tidbit ought to make every contributor at these forums seem like Rhodes Scholars.

 

Only here, we call them "Roads Scholars."

For those that saw him play, because I didn’t, what made him so great?

 

was it: 

 

his ability to cut and slash his way through double teams?

 

his ability to escape after he was clearly hemmed in?

 

 Those massive hands that don’t fit normal gloves? 

 

Or or was it on the field stuff? 

Watch some film of him turning the corner and just taking off past the Steelers. I remember him as a kid. He was electrifying at times.

Yeah, the way he could cut to the hole and knife through defenses with that slashing running style of his was something else.  He's really the guy you wanted in, in the fourth quarter when you wanted to go for the jugular and put the opponent away for good.

Absolutely! despite what he has become, he remains my favorite of all time. After 1970, a true modern prototype.

He used to run straight through the "Steel Curtain"
