The family of O.J. Simpson announced his death from cancer earlier today at the age of 76. Simpson was a star football player, turned actor and sports broadcaster, who was later accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her boyfriend Ronald Goldman.
Many in the sports media world reacted to his passing:
The first football my dad bought me was an orange OJ Simpson football

It’s hard to explain how wild and surreal this still is – 2024 is the 30th anniversary of the White Bronco car chase. NBC would toggle back and forth between that and Game 5 of the Rockets-Knicks NBA finals: pic.twitter.com/DCdtPucagR

CRAZY STORY ???? When O.J. Simpson called into @1RickLewis’ show years ago, Rick asked O.J. about most people thinking that he killed his wife… O.J. laughed it off. ????

Life and legacy is rarely one thing. People are good, bad, do great things, and make huge mistakes.

But in the case of OJ Simpson his legacy is simple. He is a man that murdered two people and got away with it.
