Would You Wear an OJ Jersey to a Game?

[Historian]

I have seen dozens of them selling on Ebay...for hundreds of dollars each, over the past several months. Right now there are about 10 of them up for sale, most with bids on them.

Does this mean he's forgiven, or are they being purchased as a joke? Is this just people's fascination with the macabre?

Would you wear one to a game? I'm curious.

i think its a collectors item... he was one of the all ime greats on the field. as throwback merchandise is at an all time high as a hot purchase today... ya its sad... but the publicity from the murderers has given him more attention... i personally wouldn't but others will.

keeping an open mind on the whole OJ thing, and I may p**s some of you off, but I see it as a massacre of justice, he was proven not guilty and no matter what we feel happened, the only living person that knows the truth is OJ. So in that, yes I would wear an OJ jersey only because he was a great Buffalo Bill. Now let me ask another question, would any of you wear a Lawrence Taylor jersey as he was found guilty of using crack, or a Jim Brown jersey on his views on race, or a Michael Pittman jersey knowing that he is a wifebeater? There are so many issues that these players have off the field and in the world of the NFL, you can be an accused murderer, a crackhead, a racist or a wifebeater and you will always get your props (and a lesser punishment) because of your accomplishments on the field.

not a chance.

BuffTexas, I like your spin on things. And you're right about what you've said above. That being said, I still wouldn't wear one. OJ may have been a great football player back in the day, but those days are long gone.

I wouldn't wear an OJ jersey to the garbage dump.

Only if NYS had a concealed carry law, givin' me a stab at protecting myself

I wouldnt put that scumbags jersey on my dogs ass. It tells the world "Hey look Im a gullable moron".It also offends the Brown and Goldman families. I sure as hell know if my kid was slaughtered by OJ whoever wore his jersey would get roasted if not pummeled by me. Just MHO.

That's how I feel too, Thailog, but I didn't want to say it. I'm glad you did. I don't care that he got off, he's GUILTY in my mind! And, even if he didn't kill Nicole and Ron (I fully believe he did), he still beat her senseless on numerous occasions and hitting a girl is NEVER okay in my book! He'll get his when he dies. He'll be in hell, that I'm sure of!

You know OJ gets a piece of the pie for every jersey of his that sells which probably goes directly to the brown and goldman families

The only way I would wear an OJ jersey is if it came with some TIGHT black leather gloves and knife holder.

I myself wasn't sure of his guilt or innocence until the civil trial when he took the stand and came right out and said he never hit her.....something everyone knows he did. That right there told me he was likely lying all along. He was a scum for hitting her and I, too, believe he was behind her murder as well.

In the early '70's he hung out at a joint called Gabriels Gate in Allentown, and at another joint called Mulligans on Hertel Ave.in North Bflo. Too bad walls can't talk.

Yeah. So also did Hitler, Tojo, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Amin etc. put their regions on the map.

Go away and read something.
