O.J. Simpson’s in Hot Water Again

For some reason, O.J. Simpson seems to have a need to be in the spotlight, whether it be in a good way (with his football accomplishments and acting career) or in a bad way (the murder of former wife Nicole Simpson and friend Ron Goldman and the “fictitious” book). Once again, his name is in the headlines, but as you might guess, it is not in a good way. O.J. has been questioned by investigators of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in regards to a break-in of a hotel room. Sgt. John Loretto confirmed that there is an allegation … Continue reading

New Homes For Miss America and Simpson Book

Move over “Trading Spaces” and “A Baby Story” you’ve got a new neighbor… Miss America.

According to news reports, Simpson was dining at an upscale Louisville restaurant the night before the Kentucky Derby when the eatery’s owner approached the former NFL Hall of Famer and asked him to leave. Jeff Ruby told reporters he refused to serve Simpson because he is “sickened” by the attention Simpson still attracts. “I didn’t want to serve him because of my … Continue reading

O.J. Tries To Juice The Goldman’s… Again

Most of the world won’t be shocked to hear the news that it is taking a judge to force O.J. Simpson to fork over money to the Goldman family. According to news reports, a Florida judge recently ruled that the former football star must give any money his attorney is holding for him to the family of murder victim Ronald Goldman to satisfy a multimillion-dollar wrongful death judgment. Simpson’s attorney is reportedly holding about $3,500 for Simpson in a client trust account.
