    It was in 1973, when the NFL had a 14-game season...
    Comic Book Guy Last night's game was, without a doubt, the worst ever. Rest assured, I was on the internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world.

      I had read that after OJ ran for the 2003 yds, he was tackled for a loss which dropped him below the 2000yd mark and he was taken out of the game. This would mean that he actually ran for less than 2000yds, but I don't know how true this is. I think I read it a few years ago in SI or something like that. If anyone knows for sure, please let me know...

        it's untrue...he was pulled after he got the 2003...it was very late in the game and they we're going to risk him losing it...

          Yeah, OJ lost the yards but they decided to just give it to him anyway because the NFL is so fair like that.
















          No, not really.

            the way he was tearing up yardage in that game they could have given it to him a couple of more times to add to the total.

              They took him out of the game immediately once he passed the mark to make sure he finished with more than 2,000 yards...

                I don’t know which quote I like better?

                “It was a thoughtful gesture by an outwardly gentle man.”

                or

                "I may not look it," Simpson said, "but I'm aggressive. You have to be aggressive to be a good football player, to be a good anything."

                  At least he didn't have to go back to the film, like Mercury Morris did to get 1000.

                      Mercury Morris finished the season at 997. He went back through every game film to come up with the 3 extra yards. That is a true story.

                        I'm just letting you know that you have been given 2 points for telling Wys AKA Mark to kill himself.
