    LOL - basic crime being armed robbery? That he went to trial and was found guilty for? Sentenced to 33 and let out in 9. But to you, I guess that was a harsh sentence?

    Convicted armed robber, convicted spousal abuser, and unconvicted but definitely did it murderer. Wrote a book "If I did it". Just a terrible human being. That's your hero's legacy.

    OJ and Hillary were/are much higher profile than those you mentioned.

    so are The Cook, The Obama, His Wife, and His Lover

    The Made in America documentary was illuminating on understanding just how bad the relationship between the LAPD and the African American community was in Los Angeles for most of the 20th century. It was bad. Probably still is.

    what a bizarre and random tag.

    go Rockets. I was in NYC with a whole bunch of Houston fans during the 94 Finals when Game 5 was interrupted. Not sure what kind of feedback you are looking for here.

    What was the bar/poolhall on West Gray? That's where we were, and I cannot remember the name of it.

    while OJ was the football hero at USC, from 1967-1969, Kim Kadashian's father Robert was a business major there. OJ was the best mean at Robert Kadashian's wedding to Kim's mon, Chris Houghton, who decades later
    would become the wife of Bruce Jenner, the former Olympic Decathon champ and then morph to become Caitlan Jenner

    Robert Kadashian had assemblde the "dream team" of lawyers to defend OJ, the team include the season pro Johnnie Cochrane below




    this was the prosecution team, a seasoned pro in Marcia Clark and relatively inexperienced Christopher Darden, who had no previous trial experience
    [​IMG]

    to say that the "Dream team" schooled the prosecution team would be a gross-understatement


    this 2016 documentary is quite informative

    Sometimes 110th street is a tag; sometimes it’s a state of mind.

    good to see you, my friend.
