Remembering OJ's 2K (http://www.billszone.com/YourSite/global/templates/view.php?action=YourSite_content&month=7&state=newsarchive&nid=5512)


<center><img src="http://www.billszone.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/timezone/1969-1978/Simpson%2COJ9.jpg" border="2"></center> <P>One week short of the 30th anniversary of OJ Simpson's historic season, the Bills will meet the Jets again on a snowy, cold field. In an ironic twist, Jets' RB Curtis Martin needs only 7 yards to move past Simpson into 12th place all-time on the NFL's rushing list. Here is a BillsZone look back 30 years ago to that historic game in which Simpson surpassed the 2,000 yard markin a season- the first RB to accomplish this and the only one in NFL history to do it in a 14 game season.<BR>

Kind if ironic that with only 7 yards, Curtis Martin moves into 12th all time, past the Juice.

And.. that Willis McGahee, the highest rated college RB to get drafted by the Bills since Simpson, gets his debut

I'd like it a whole lot better if we were able to prevent him from getting it - like we prevented Bruce. But I don't see that happening, unless he misses his plane.

The Juice had what MARTIN DOESN'T, EXPLOSIVNESS along with the durability to put the offense on his back. WM could be the OJ of the 21st century. Different styles both workhorses. ACC

Maybe OJ's "Electric Company" could shock our present line and get a heartbeat . CLEAR!
