In an odd coincidence, the real killer reportedly died at the exact same time.
Norm?

I didn't fully get Norm's comedy until I learned
It's becoming clearer now. It seems the only experience he kept to himself is the one that took him.
"On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer."
Asked to comment, the cancer claimed innocence and vowed to catch the real killer.
(that one's for you, Norm)
If the cancer type does not fit, then you must acquit.
I was looking into the people involved, and Don Ohlmeyer, the guy who had Norm fired from SNL in 1998 for his OJ jokes, died of cancer in 2017. Norm did in 2021. And now OJ. Fuck cancer (and also OJ).
This just makes me miiss Norm McDonald
He knew he would be fired if he didn't stop. He didn't stop. That absolute legend.
Rest In Piss
Me in high school watching the Bronco chase:
“Fuck, this asshole is going ruin the Naked Gun movies for me now.”
One of the football greats, but the whole murder thing was a real bad look tbh
I would have led with murderer who happened to play football well, but that's just me
That makes no sense considering he was a terrible amateur murderer, but an incredible pro football player.
If Lebron died would you list him as an actor who happened to play basketball??
Hahaha, your response legit cracked me up.
Fair point
The other thread got deleted but @ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world threw down this gem that cracked me up
"If I Did It" by CANCER
Bye Norbert. Too bad you turned out to be a cunt.
I know, it sucks. Naked Gun is one of my favorites, and he was great in it. Too bad he turned out to be a shithead.
One of the few times where you root for the cancer
It will be interesting to see what the Bills do. He played a bit before my time, but he was a big part of the Bills identity in the 70s.
I've heard lots of stories about how good OJ was at knifing through the backfield....
Are we still doing "phrasing"?
I phrased that perfectly, thank you very much.....
Yes, you did. 🤌
Oh nooo……who will the news channels reach out to now when they desperately need legal advice on critical issues like should it be illegal to pay hush money payment to a pornstar to influence the election outcome?
Such a tragedy
They finally squeezed the Juice.
Did he ever find the killer like he said he would?
He did though! Every morning when he got up, he stared him in the face as he brushed his teeth
Good riddance.
Good.
I was wondering why the world felt like it was a better place.
I'm glad that cancer was finally able to shake the OJ Simpson disease and is feeling much better.
I personally think he was guilty and that the jury made the right decision. Such a fucking mess.
Yeah, the lawyer did a great job creating "reasonable doubt." I think if we want a justice system that defaults toward innocence, we have to be willing to let a murderer out on the streets for every 100 innocents who also walk. I'd rather have that result than jailing 100 innocents so we can catch the one murderer.
I really don't think the doubt was reasonable. At least I'm 100% certain he was guilty and was ever since I watched the car chase. The cops fucking up the investigation has no impact on what I saw with my own eyes.
An innocent rich man doesn't fucking run away from the cops and have to be talked out of suicide to face trial. No fucking way.
They tried to frame a guilty man.
You think so? I don't know... I mean, he did publish a book that detailed exactly how the crime happened and why but the title is called "If I Did It" not "I Did It" so we can't be sure...
