"I KILLED HIM, AND IT WILL BE THE SAME OUTCOME THIS YEAR [1994]"---! PLEASE READ: I am on an OJ kick, what can I say? I have always had an interest: I have read several books on the case (including the late F. Lee Bailey's new book) and I vividly remember so much about the trial and talking head shows at night. Between the criminal and civil cases, 1994-1997 was the OJ obsession for so many: right before Clinton/Lewinsky, Y2K, and 9/11. ALSO: You Tube has (fairly recently) allowed people to upload partial and full NFL games from the 1960's onward (for many years, your videos would be removed), as they have partnered with You Tube (as have other sports, media outlets, etc.)...THIS is why soooo much of You Tube contains once unthinkable video footage (copyright troubles and so forth).
The reason people were shocked is because OJ was very likable, talented and a football hero. He could have gone into politics and gone far if he wasn’t a thug
Nicole had 9 or 10 documented cases of domestic violence against OJ before he murdered her. It’s amazing how he kept his public persona clean up until the murder.
It’s a real shame that he will be forever remembered for his run-ins with the law and court cases than with what he did on the football field as a player/sideline reporter, his commercials, and films.
Mike Jackson 93 case was still going on and Same year Diddy started Bad boy.. I see a pattern here.. How may black public figures are left whose name isn’t tainted makes u wonder
It is never that simple....Reason? He was deeply affected by football inJuries; He was not himself for the last half of his life...i'LL always give redemption to those who are sincerely lost - in need..
I used to play those Madden Nfl games on genesis in the early 90s. I used to think the graphics were soo incredible. Looking at them now, they look really bad. But back in the early 90s they were incredible to us.
So were the amazing, but also now primitive arcade games we played! They of which were cutting edge back then, while game consoles were not yet capable of doing perfect ports, but are now totally old hat though.
I don't know if that was madden, it might have been one of the other franchises like Montana football. That game in the clip looked absolutely unplayable. I still play the 1989 version of Madden on the Genesis, and it's much smoother than this game they're playing in this 1994 clip. The oldest versions of the game are a lot of fun, but it needs to be Madden.
Kind of a coincidence that OJ's last broadcast was seeing his Buffalo Bills lose a Super Bowl. Their fourth in a row. The last time the Bills have been in the Super Bowl.
Ironic that less than 5 months later was the infamous chase of the white Ford Bronco during the Game 5 of the NBA finals, and he calls Bob Costas who's covering the finals.
The bronco chase is one of the most iconic moments Of the 90s Man what a year 1994 was there was so much big moments moments that happened that year definitely can’t forget about the Nancy Karagan Tonya Harding incident
Imagine if Nicole just left oj alone about this whole on and off marriage, stopped hanging around ppl who did drugs and let oj be with Paula instead, no one would be killed and oj would have had his life and Nicoleand goldmen too.. although I think Goldman would have been killed since roomers have been that the mob over there didn't like him.
I totally remember seeing this back in day when it first came out, I was a senior in high school then.. Crazy how things come out that you remember seeing way back when. Kinda ironic what he said in the beginning just months away from what happened.
You can tell just how much of him really changed after he did the murders he wasn't himself at all I guess when people do evil they change and before they'd do some evil you can tell they were good people.
Think about how much the world was about to change in less than a year. Cobain died, OJ's troubles, Jimmy Johnson leaves Dallas, Amold Palmer retired, Nas drops Illmatic, Pulp Fiction changed cinema forever and so much more! it's insane how different the second half of the 90's was too. A different America and world indeed.
Happy heavenly birthday Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson 7/9/2024. One can imagine if he,Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were all alive today and OJ was still working as an NFL commentator. OJ being suspected of murdering NBS and Goldman not long after this event ended OJ's NFL career. He retired from the NFL gridirons after the 1979 season.
OJ always had this weird tick where he would wiggle his body when speaking towards the camera. Tommy Davidson mocked OJ, the sideline reporter on In Living Color's live Super Bowl 26 halftime show on Fox in January 1992.
A lot of people don't know that the game against Ditka is what sent him over the edge. Nicole mocked him repeatedly after the loss. "Way to egg Ditka on OJ. You blew it." Had that 8 bit reciever dropped the ball, she'd still be alive.
aside from OJ its crazy to see all of these guys so young, Joe Gibbs looks like he's 80 and he's probably in his 50s. also I forget about him being a football coach because that was before my time, he's always been NASCAR owner in my mind.
It would’ve been inevitable because if the murders didn’t happen, it would’ve been brought to light about his past as a wife beater during the me too movement.
@@michaelingram3961 I agree he could have been President of The United States. Thats how popular and beloved he was. But could you imagine? "President Simpson has slashed the national debt. The Simpson Administration has announced another round of budget cuts. Meanwhile, Vice President Jeffrey Dahmer has solved the global hunger crisis. The homeless population remains at zero for the fourth year in a row...
Weird, i remember a broadcast where he was a sideline reporter and they didnt have time for it at the end - maybe Notre Dame football - and they show him on the screen at the same time they are signing off and telling him he is getting cut...there was an intense moment of rage, but i'm surprised i couldnt find it on youtube.
@@bobma6342he did. The guy played for 11 years as a running back in the 70s. Everyone from that era has CTE. Want proof O.J has CTE? Look at what Phil vilapinao and the raiders did to him😂
Why O. J. ...? he used to be so perfect and then...a murder in the way. Sad because he represent so much to the black community and the people in general...
@@adrianacatarinamagalhaes725Because they hated the LAPD and whether OJ did it or not, they got caught tampering/planting evidence. The enemy of my enemy is my friend
Real irony would have been OJ in a cell with Lawrence Phillips. "Hey Lawrence, I'm borrowing your toothpaste." Phillips looks up from his Goosebumps book. "You gonna borrow it? How are you gonna return it to me?" Simpson egotistically laughs, but says nothing. He begins to squeeze the toothpaste on his Minions themed toothbrush, suddenly his head is pushed teeth first onto the sink. Knocking them out. Lawrence picks up the teeth " Hey Juice, I'm borrowing your teeth. Here you can have them back!!!". OJ bloodied and dizzy screams as Lawrence takes the teeth and shoves them where the sun doesn't shine. Two days later Lawrence is questioned about his actions. He responds " I don't know what happened to him. Guy has many enemies in here. But if it was me, here's the sequence of actions, but remember I didn't do it. But if I did it.... here's how😁".
oj would be doing this for a good 10 + years more shame . lapd for you cant blame belushi , they should of done their job better. ruined so many lives . never should of gone to trial conviction impossible under circumstances. oj was right in letter, atleast he won't have to hear people state he killed someone anymore.
I was aware that O.J. was arrested five years earlier for an altercation with his wife but did not know to what extent how far he was going to take his obsession with her. I was on my lunch break from my New York Wall Street job when I read a small article in USA Today about the incident. It still did not occur to me he would kill her. It woke me up that I need to understand every domestic violence case could lead to murder. Publicly he came off as a likable affable person. If only I knew of his private dark side.
His football cards not worth more now.. Got his rookie listed for $90 right now should have been 20,000.. it is just very very sad I remember all of this and up until that Bronco Chase it was a serious conversation whether or not OJ Simpson was the best football player or definitely the best running back of all time..... I mean when I say that stopped instantly it stopped instantly
This was always the real OJ that everybody knew.. and I'm not going to look at him or remember him in any other way than his know-how for the game but he will always be a legend of....
Why is Mike Ditka talking like that to O.J?? Does he not know about what happened? Man this is crazy dangerous. OJ could've easily just snapped and turned this into GTA 5. Also I had now idea the Bills played the Cowboys in the Super Bowl last year. Crazy how people just forgive OJ now and he's able to play video games before the Super Bowl. I am really impressed with the video game quality and how far it's come though.
Imagine how Ditka, Jim Lampley, Bob Costas and that entire crew he worked with, plus all the players he interviewed, felt when they found out OJ was suspected of murder and on trial? Just finding out about the domestic abuse, prior to that, must have been shocking.
I have this taped.. as a Bills fan, I taped all 4 super bowls and I haven't seen this in years. I remember that halftime report. Buffalo was up 13-6 at the half and the Bills went back to the locker room really nervous about the 2nd half because they were just waiting for the bubble to burst..it did, they lost 30-13, outscored 24-0 in the second half. We haven't been back since..yet.. Go Bills!
Strange thing I remember hearing Don Beebe say he was looking forward to the 2nd half because he felt they could move the ball and score more against the Cowboys.
