The Heistman's Trophy

Guilty by only a jury of public opinion, I too have always believed that OJ Simpson bludgeoned to death ex-wife Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman in 1994. Neither the former pro football star turned actor's actual glove size nor the not guilty courtroom verdict has swayed my personal belief.
Following the trial of the century, OJ Simpson is now charged with multiple felonies for stealing his own sports memorabilia. Could this be the act of an arrogant man looking in the mirror too long at a picture of himself? Mirrors do not lie, people do. Never concerned with restoring his own reputation or changing public persona, OJ Simpson felt convicted attempting to get back missing pieces of himself by taking a crack at what he believed he was entitled to. Stealing back your own hand signed memorabilia in an armed robbery is so oxymoronic priceless that it would be criminal not to earn Freudian Slips spotlight.
The fall of this celebrity is one for the ages. I am at a loss trying to explain how OJ Simpson can go from the adulation of collegiate Heisman trophy winner to the scorn of an amateurish getaway with autographed footballs stuffed in pillowcases. To any diehard remaining fans out there in the world, well that Hertz.
I do not know what OJ Simpson was thinking in orchestrating this botched hotel heist. With the raid caught on audio tape, it makes the Watergate burglary look like the perfect crime. Even Richard Nixon did not squeeze his own orange juice. Like a bucking white Ford Bronco, OJ Simpson brought this on himself. It just goes to show that some guys think they can get away with murder.

He certainly dropped the ball here. I watched a show last eve titled "why to people love to hate OJ".
Well he sure isn't sweet like oranjulius! now is he! I too can't get him and dont want to!
I am sure he did it just as he did this,, and THEN to make a book entitled-if I did it. How absurd

This just goes to show how self-centered and egotistical OJ has become, and dumb, too. He thought he was above the law. Why not, he got away with murder, didn't he? What the hecks wrong with strong arm robbery; all he wanted was his own stuff back, right? You people should stop picking on OJ!!!!
