Former NFL star running back OJ Simpson has earned quite a reputation on social media following his retirement.
Because OJ always goes viral, he has earned a place in the It’s what Podcast is. In the latest episode, the former Buffalo Bills star responded to a comment made by Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal.
“Dont do it [open up to a woman] Because once you do it, every time something happens they’re going to throw it in your face,” Shaq said on a recent episode of his podcast.
OJ drew attention with his response
“When you say ‘open up to women,’ I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she said. “Is she talking about confessing? No man, don’t confess. I think he’s right. Don’t say anything… leave me out of the confession. “They have to leave me out of this.”
OJ has a long criminal history
Despite having a decorated career in the NFL, OJ’s criminal record is equally decorated. In 1995, the former Buffalo Bills star was accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Simpson and his friend Ron Goldman.
The case made national headlines, including a nationally televised high-speed chase with police that led to his arrest.
The not guilty verdict was one of the most controversial decisions in American history.
But Simpson’s run-ins with authorities don’t end there. In 2007, Simpson confiscated expensive sports memorabilia at gunpoint. The former star running back was charged with criminal conspiracy, kidnapping, assault, robbery and use of a deadly weapon.
He was convicted and sentenced to 33 years in prison, but was released on parole in 2017.
Cam’ron defends controversial decision
Some people were not happy when they announced that Simpson would be joining the It is What it Is podcast as a recurring guest. Given OJ’s criminal record, not everyone was in favor of him having the opportunity to appear on television every week.
But despite the backlash, Cam’ron stands behind his decision to employ OJ. He even went so far as to say that OJ is an “innocent man.”
“Everyone wants to continue condemning an innocent man,” he said. “He is innocent. If he was someone whiter, everyone would say ‘Oh, he’s innocent.’”
