Just finished this five episode doc...Good Lord, what a tour de force. I remember when it came out in '16 & the reviews were glowing, but I never got around to watching it. After Simpson died last week, Netflix added it to their catalog & I started watching it this weekend. Each episode is 90ish minutes or so, but damn is it riveting.
One thing-football wise-that I didn't know is how sluggish Simpson's NFL career was his first three seasons until '73 when Lou Saban became the Bills HC & Buffalo started running the ball all the time. '73 was the season O.J. went for 2K, becoming the first RB ever to do that.
If you have Netflix & haven't seen it, I highly recommend it.
WHAT??
The guy who directed the Hertz commercials with OJ running through airports? He put that money into Los Angeles real estate. Including the apartment building I lived in for about 20 years.
The best scene I think was when Clark was buying tampons and the clerk says something like “looks like the defense is in for a hell of a week”…honorary 2nd was Schwimmer as Robert Kardashian saying something along the lines of “we’re the kardashians, we don’t sell out for money”
Think about that.
Think about that.
If there's some relevant detail here, I'm forgetting it - if Goldman doesn't show up, why doesn't Simpson only kill one person?
All beyond a reasonable doubt though.
Should call that tv show "Only in America".

He’s said this on a couple of OJ threads and I don’t get it either. OJ went to Nicole’s with a knife, knit cap, gloves and likely some kind of change of shoes/clothes. Perhaps he was just gonna scare her, but murder was very much an option in his mind.

Seriously, you can't figure out the point that's being made?

Evidently, I'm not the only one. But please keep us all in suspense.

Let OJ tell you why Goldman was the cause of the murders.
He confesses - ( New Window )
Yep, the evidence suggested that OJ hit Nicole with the back end of the knife (pommel?) to knock her out while he dealt with the bigger threat to him - Goldman. After he killed Goldman and went back over to Nicole and cut her throat. I don’t think it’s known for sure if OJ snuck up on both of them at once, or if Goldman really did just show up at the absolute worst possible time with an attack in progress. Either way, I think it’s a safe bet that the confrontation with Nicole wasn’t going to end well for her.
Just a vicious double murder.

Tough sequence for Nicole - she just happened to slip and fall and hurt herself just moments before being nearly decapitated.
