O.J. Simpson Caught on Tape

O.J. Simpson, the ex running back for the NFL years ago was arrested Sunday and booked on charges connected with what police described as a robbery at a Las Vegas hotel. The audiotape was released today (Monday) by a celebrity web site TMZ.com, and a man believed to be Simpson demanded "my stuff" multiple times in the tape. He also said, "Think you can steal my s--- and sell it?" Now, Simpson was not the only person in the armed robbery and the others in the attempt were arrested or are in the process of going to be arrested.


Another collector in the same hotel room, Bruce Fromong, stated that the meeting was set up as if the men were customers, but when the men arrived, it was nothing like an orderly meeting: "The door burst open and they came in almost commando style, O.J. Simpson and some of his people, I guess you would call it, with guns drawn," Fromong said to ABC's Good Morning America Monday. "O.J. at that time was saying, 'I want my stuff. I want my stuff. The thing in my mind as soon as I saw him, I'm thinking, 'O.J., how can you be this dumb? You're in enough trouble."'


Simpson said that the men that accompanied him he met at a wedding cocktail party. The whole thing is almost deja vu again with Simpson. He has not been able to get out of trouble or it almost seems like he doesn't want to stay out of trouble. He has almost been like Daryl Strawberry, the ex baseball player who couldn't get out of drugs and alcohol, teams gave Daryl a bunch of chances but he literally threw away his chances at being a good baseball player.


O.J. Simpson right before he had issues with this Las Vegas armed robbery tried to release a book that talked about how he would have committed the murder of his wife, but yet he still thought that after we read his book we would still believe he didn't murder his wife. The guy needs to be thrown in the slammer and the key needs to be thrown away because the guy has tainted any career he had as a running back in the NFL and most people now do not even think of football with O.J., all we think about is somebody who had a chance to have a peaceful retirement, but threw it all away by making horrific choices. I hope young children do not view Simpson as a role model because of what he has done.
