With no "Dream Team".......O J ........goes to Jail


From Fox News.....

O.J. Simpson was sentenced Friday to at least 15 years in prison for armed robbery and kidnapping in a failed attempt to recover sports memorabilia from two collectibles dealers.

There will be the possibility of parole after six years, Judge Jackie Glass said.

His co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart received the same sentence.

Before the judge handed down his sentence, Simpson apologized to her and the Las Vegas court after learning he won't be able to be freed on bail if he appeals.

Simpson appeared at the hearing in a blue prison jumpsuit, shackles and handcuffs.


It was as if O.J. was looking and waiting.....

For Johnnie Cochran to come running into the court room with a last ditch effort to keep him out of jail.

It didn't happen.......For one, Mr. Cochran (God rest his soul) is dead......And this was Las Vegas.......not Los Angeles.

We all knew Simpson was guilty of two counts of murder back in 1994........but he and his "Dream Team" of lawyers beat the system that for generations had beaten the black man.

This case was different..........No Court TV........No fan fare........just the law versus the evidence versus the defense. And the defense lost.

Let's hope Mr. Simpson ceases to make any more headlines and lives a peaceful and quiet life in that gray-bar hotel.

No "Dream Team".....This Time....


Orenthal James Simpson..........

We have come to know him as O. J.

13 years since Mr. Simpson was acquitted of the double murder charges of his estranged wife Nicole and her friend, Mr. Goldman......

13 hours it took this jury to convict Simpson.....Guilty ........on all 12 counts....including kidnapping and armed robbery.

The 61 year old NFL Hall-of-fame
r, faces a possible life sentence.

Without his infamous "Dream Team" of 1995......O. J. was ........well just like us common folks.

Face it......we all knew O. J. did it! We ........as black people, applauded........because his legal team beat the legal system that had beat up blacks for a hundred years.

But .......this case was different.

There was no Johnnie Cochran........no glove that wouldn't fit........no "Dream Team".

This was a case of O. J. ........refusing to just live his life in obscurity........doing something stupid...........and forgeting who he was.

I feel sorry for his children..........they are now in their twenties........but without a mother.....and now possibly
.......a jailbird dad.

I hear they are keeping Mr. Simpson isolated from other inmates .......for his own security.

What a sad ending....
