Just saw a report of his death from cancer. In February he reported he was being treated for prostate cancer. Didn’t see any real disease or treatment details.

How do we avoid reliving the OJ stories for the next couple of weeks? Heck of a football player and that was about it.

My favorite reply to the story.” Looks like the glove fits now.”

I guess by his demeanor you would think it wasn't possible, but everyone except the jury thought he committed the atrocities. At that time he was still strong, fit, and probably could run a 100 yards in 10.5 seconds. No escape possible and it had to be terrorizing. At least he did significant prison time for the hare-brained robbery thing.

To this day my wife has theorized that his son was the assailant. She says OJ arranged to protect his son knowing that he (OJ) would be the natural one to be charged, but he would be acquitted since he didn’t do it. The trial would have such notoriety that the prosecutors would be unable and unwilling to then accuse and try someone else.

And, as with all things, I humbly agree with her.

I saw a headline that said OJ & Ford Broncos recalled on same day.(major Ford recall announced today) Pretty clever.

Only article I read said he did chemo? Given his age, I wonder if it went undetected for a while.

I’m sure when he was in jail they were not affording him PSA screening. In that period of time things can get out of hand bigly. He had two things going against him…..age and race…….both greatly elevated his risk factors for PCa.

And, yes Rob, the report in February said he was on chemotherapy and under hospice care.
