well, not as famous as he was after he murdered his wife and her boyfriend
Yeah, I should’ve made the distinction; how famous was the dude before killing his girlfriend? The Netflix show makes him out to be a national messiah
He was pretty famous before getting framed, like the Tom Brady of his generation.
Back then media landscape was much smaller and OJ would appear on the few tv shows and movies they had.
He was pretty big before the murders, that's why it sent the entire country into a frenzy when that happened.
Messi/Tsuuu level big?
famous enough to get framed for murder
Not internationally no, only nationally
By the time he murdered he was a comedy movie star kinda guy so not as big as them. He was like a famous reality tv star would be today
only in the states
>framed
imagine actually believing he didn't do it
OJ was an innocent white man
>win your criminal trial against murdering your wife
>lose your civil trial about killing some jew
>have to rob your own memorabilia just to pay bills back to the jew
This is why common law is a joke
oj did nothing wrong
> not as famous as after [something that never happened]
>domestic gridiron player
>as famous as messi/ronaldo
you're a fucking moron
just gotta say, when I watched the show with my gf we didn't know shit about OJ expcept we did know he was currently in prison, the whole show we were wondering what's so special about this trial, and then bam! the end when they released him was a fucking slap in the face, literally don't remember the last time a some fictional show finale blew my mind so much
you live in a fucked up country my friends
IMAGINE not having faith in the US department of justice correctly handling the biggest case of the 20th century
OJ unironically did nothing wrong
Could you explain yourself please amigo
Filthy whore ex wife was a milkburner and deserved it
>killed a cheating coalburner whore and a kike
Literally the anti hero of Yea Forums
it`s like if beckham murdered victoria back in england. Retired but still relatively famous
his car chase inspired the based chaseb owl threads on Yea Forums
Probably like Pistorius
He didnt do it
He was very famous, more so later on as a pop culture figure (commercials and acting) than as a jock.
He will always be The Juice.
Meme actor, went from playing bit parts in big budget shlock like the Towering Inferno, to bigger parts in comedy C grade shit.
How can you be this ignorant about the OJ trial? Smh
Dont forget he tried to kill the Queen of England as well
but the "coalburner" cheated the black man with the kike so what does that make her
Nice
Just your average woman
he was a really, really big deal in the city of los angeles before the murders. it's difficult to describe. maybe like tom brady is to boston as oj was to los angeles, not in absolute success but as a media-ready athlete with a huge profile.
that was enrico palazzo
Beckham is worldwide bro. American footballers are known by americans and cuck enthusiasts
Nah, Nordberg got tempiraraly brainwashed in the hispital. Palazzo was actually Drebin undercover and saved the queen. The real Palazzo was knocked out in the equipment room.
Anyone similar in the UK? (If you can think of any)
OJ was considered the GOAT at his position before the NFL and media coveniently tried to forget he existed the past 25 years
Cutting Edge.
The glove didn't fit you retards. Stop pestering an innocent man.
Nice
Who?
ricky hatton and manchester
Boomer here, he was very famous when I was a kid and in lots of movies, tv shows, etc. He was a mainstay in popular culture similar to any well known actor today, which is why the murder was such a big deal in the first place. If it just any former player, it would have gotten coverage but would have been more like Aaron Hernandez levels of relevant as opposed to what it was.
More like Shaq
2,000 yards. 14 games.
>mfw (((they))) probably rigged the criminal trial for him just so it'd be easier to win the civil trial
He’s still at his peak
Didn’t Eric Dickerson break his record?
This desu
he was found innocent in a court of law bro
Definitely not true. Walter Payton and Jim Brown were considered GOAT before Barry (or Emmitt for retards)
Just like casey Anthony the prosecution fucked their case up
That was Reggie Jackson ya tripfag simp
find it all abit cringey now especially non americans going on about his twitter
allegedly
He was found innocent.
He didn't do it.
OJ IS ABOUT TO CUT SOME CRACKERS
>
Twitter is cringe in general
He was considered for the role of the Terminator, studio said he was too nice to be a believable killing machine.
Heh
This, when I was young the goats were always Payton and Brown with Barry Sanders closing in
Nice
Bump
If Wayne Rooney turned out to have murdered some Instagram slag with a baseball bat
innocent or not guilty? it's not the same thing
His son killed them tho. He only was complicit in the cover up
OJ didn't do it but the thot and her beta orbiter deserved it anyway.
that was the 90s less than 25 years ago, no?
Reminder the juice was an uncle tom cornball nigga who never considered himself black until he used the race card to save his ass
I still find it fucking hilarious how incompetent the LA DA was to not be able lock him up, the 90s was a weird time
Just imagine being this based and redpilled for even one moment
youtu.be
imagine if Vinnie Jones was a beloved player for a hypothetical Rich Kids of London University football team (for LA's remaining white people, USC football is as popular as the Lakers and Dodgers; much more popular than Rams or Chargers) and then went on to be a record-setting star for a mid-table EPL club.
OJ was known domestically since his college days. He was a very notable sports figure even to those who didn't watch football because he is one of the few players to break 2,000 rushing. People who don't know what that even means would share that anecdote to others who ask about him.
After he retired, he started sports broadcasting so he remained in the public eye and even acted in several blockbuster movies. Every time I watch the Naked Gun and see him burst on the scene never ceases to be surreal.
This is the best equation. A sports figure lasting notoriety who also acted in movies.
>messi/ronaldo
>as famous as nfl stars in burgerland
Also to further extrapolate: He is one of the black athletes to break the color barrier. Sure there was Ali but Ali was always very, very politically decisive. OJ on the other hand was openly loved by many white people.
He had a famous quote: "I'm not black, I'm OJ." This plays considerably in his story.
i really, really like those digits
for a Black American, Not Guilty means Innocent
do you know how hard it is to get away with a crime as a black american?
well someone did the killing
>murder clearance rate in chicago below 10%
>clearance only means referred to prosecution
yeah
interupting the fucking bulls knicks playoff game . I was so butt hurt mad when that happened
OJ hit 2000 in 14 games
Dickerson hit 2000 after 15 and wound up with 2100 after game 16
Give him some time . I bet he is up for the challenge
He 100% didn't do it and I'm not even a nigger.
>tf
Almost certainly a lie.
>still believing the murder conspiracy
Name one other nigger athlete who got paid to endorse major mainstream corporate brands in the 70s and 80s, OJ was a yuge deal culturally before focusing on his samurai skills
But also... really
Will forever be based. /Bills Owl 2020/
Nice
I still don’t get it, can someone TLDR as to how they fucked up so badly? Was it the fact it got so much media coverage?
Nice
Why the fuck does Chewbacca live on Endor?
LAPD was also known to be extremely corrupt in the 90s. The prosecution fucked up by not strictly focusing on the facts of the case, as well as bringing in a cop that kept saying "nigger", so it obviously then became more of a referendum on the overall justice system/police brutality/discrimination/etc.
Was OJ stupid? The Netflix doc depicts him as being an absolute retard
