O.J. Simpson -- one of the most infamous high-profile Americans of all time -- is dead after a cancer battle.
The former NFL great -- who stood trial for the double-murder of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, in the '90s, only to be acquitted -- passed away Wednesday in Las Vegas ... this according to his family.

His trial probably ranks very high in TV ratings. It was the first trial I remember being viewed nationwide. He and Johnny are probably somewhere talking about it. RIP _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

The Juice is finally loose. But yeah either he or a hitman hired by OJ did that couple's demose and forever tainted OJ's name in the eyes of the public.

It was such a circus, everything surrounding it.. I still remember the split screen with the White Bronco chase while the Knicks/Rockets finals was going on.. very surreal..

Cochran completely out lawyered Clark and Darden. Johnny frustrated both of them while he remained cool and calm. "If the glove don't fit you must acquit." Darden ran for judge office 130 in Los Angeles. I don't think he won. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Jeez. We get it. You guys are Dolphins fans.
But you guys got the better of the Bills in the 70s for the most part.

I admit I was a bit surprised when I read this. Only because I knew he had cancer but I haven't thought about him in so long that when I saw the headline it took me aback.
That being said his trial changed the world as we know it. We got reality TV, soaps became a dying genre and we've been stuck with the Kardashians ever since.
