BuffaloBillyG Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 32 minutes ago, SoMAn said: Bless his heart. Now he, Nicole, and Ron can all be together again. But why call him a terrible human being for one lapse in judgement? By my estimate, he lived 28,035 days. 28,034 days he never killed anyone (as far as we know). Pretty good record by any measure! I'll say this. Once in a while a thread comes along that is an absolute GODSEND. It not only reminds me that there is indeed a block feature on this site but it affords me the opportunity to scroll through and makes some new members of the club. 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butch rolle Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It's such a strange position that the Buffalo Bills PR finds themselves in. You wonder if there will be even a mention of his passing on the official website. My guess is no. His name looms up there on the wall as I suppose it would just create even more attention if they were to take it down. You wonder if the wall will be created at the new stadium and this closes the chapter on any chance of the Juice being officially referenced any longer.

I can't believe there are people celebrating his football accomplishments in here I think that folks are "acknowledging" or "remembering" his success on the field, while correctly balancing that against the fact that he was a terrible human being. I don't think folks are "celebrating" his playing career. There are, unfortunately, a lot of people out there who have murdered other people. Many of them have been caught, tried, and convicted, and some have not. Very few (if any) were major stars in football, film, and TV media like OJ. It's really a tragedy that a guy who was literally sitting on top of the world ruined his own life and took the life of 2 others, and ruined the lives of their families and friends, as well as making life much more difficult for his own children. I'm glad he's gone. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he held this power of emotion over you I suggest you seek an opportunity to explore more beneficial meanings in your life. It's amazing to hear a lot of research on this that's been done which opens a legit case that OJ's son could have done it. Would that also excuse him writing a book to profit off of it and joking about the whole thing over and over again throughout his life while the victims families will never see their loved ones again? If he knows his son did it and is covering for him, which is what many of those people say, wouldn't he still feel some kind of sympathy for what his son did to those people and their families?

I don't really understand the whole "hey his son might've done it!" stuff when there's no real evidence for it and even then OJ really never showed any sympathy for the losses.

KeLLy1278 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It’s funny how many people suddenly turn into couch attorneys the moment OJ gets mentioned. What plenty of people casually overlook is that Nicole had someone else’s blood under her fingernails. It wasn’t hers, Ron’s or OJ’s. People should look a little closer at OJ’s son.. his actions and mental state just before the time of the murders were absolutely chaotic. There is a lot of smoke there.

Livinginthepast Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 As an athlete he was amazing. As an actor he was actually decent. As a broadcaster he was ok as well. But as a human being he was an utter POS. He murdered the mother of his kids and deprived them of her for the rest of their lives. He murdered a young man in his prime whose only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was such an utter narcissist that he convinced himself that he didnt do it and that he deserved freedom and to get away with it, as if the world owed him something. He never showed any remorse and his legal team outrageously made the case about race in America, which it had nothing to do with and took away from the real victims of racial crimes. What I cannot understand is that his kids forgave him for what he obviously did. I know they were young at the time but come on! At any time in the last 30 years, he could have had a change of heart and manned up and admitted his heinous crimes but he never did. Good riddance!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WotAGuy Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 If you can find a copy, read “OJ Education of a Rich Rookie”. A book OJ and a co-author wrote about his rookie season. Interesting times and racial biases back then. Changing of the guard from the championship-era Bills to the terrible teams of the early 70s. Hard to believe the NFL and society have changed that much in my lifetime. Black QBs were barely being accepted. I think it was the 1973 season we were driving to a game on the Youngmann and who do we pass but OJ driving his car to the game. He smiled and waved at me and this 14-year old was ecstatic. Prayers to Nicole and Mr. Goldman and their families. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
