Who’s Buying O.J.’s Book?

September 14th, 2007

It’s on sale today. O.J’s much-talked about book/confessional detailing how he might have murdered Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. This morning, I heard 100,000 copies had been sold already, and it’s no. 8 in sales at BarnesandNoble.com, no. 52 at Amazon.com.

I wonder if Oprah’s interview with the Goldman’s and separately with Denise Brown had anything to do with it? The talk show host said she wouldn’t buy the book, calling the idea of it ”despicable.” But the Goldman’s maintain that this is, in part, how they are punishing O.J. for (alledgedly) murdering their son.

“It’s sending him a message,” Kim Goldman said. “He put hours putting together this confession about how he killed Ron and Nicole, and he worked hard thinking he was going to make millions off of it. And we snatched it right out from under him.”

Said Fred Goldman: “It brings a certain level of satisfaction that we’ve taken something from him,” he said. “I think it also is a recognition for him to know forevermore that we’re going to be after him … to punish him for what he’s done, to get some piece of justice.”

Did you watch the interview? Have you flip-flopped on your decision  buy “If I Did It?”

“HELL NO”, I wouldn’t buy the book if OJ was selling it, much less that greedy grubby Goldman family! Goldman is just after money. His son took those glasses to Nicole as an excuse to get in her home!And he got more than he bargained for! He got his life taken away from him. He wanted her to finance him a restaurant. Who needs sun glasses at night and I’m sure she had another pair and could come by the restaurant and pick them up the next day. What happened to the lady that was walking her dog that says she saw 4 Ninja dressed men in Black getting out of a car near Nicoles home? Never heard of that anymore. Nicole owed money for drugs and they hung it on OJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OJ’s book is the most slefish, heartless, and ignorrant thing that I have ever seen! Has money become everything, he has sacrified any morals that he could have ever had. He is not only a disgrace to himself but society. You would think that If he was lucky enough to get away with murder once that he would leave it alone. Some people must need to not only fear jail, but actually walk in an inmates footsteps. I use to think that Tyson held the record for obsene things, but I was surely mistaken. OJ deserves any back lash that he gets!

I just brought the book yesterday and so far I have read the commentary from the Goldmans that sound like they are justifying taking blood money I also read the prologue from Pabloe Fenjves which was very interesting and I think truthful readings and now I am finally down to the manuscript from OJ. My opinion is The goldman family keeps saying they are trying to make OJ pay well making him pay would be gaining access to the manuscript and ripping it up not publishing how your son was killed. Now you are trying to get yourself paid. What kind of person takes the details of their son or anyone and publishes them! Most people want to put those memories behind them not keep reliving them over and over again. The Goldmans are now accepting blood money. They punished OJ when they got the rights to the book they didnt need to go any futher. So for anyone getting the book skip the part from the goldman its the beginning it is a ~~???*@# excuse for exceptin blood money read the prologue and the book portion. I havent finish the book part yet but hopefully it will be good.!!!

well OJ is a sick man , that needs money and think about it he really didnt get away with the murders yea he got acquitted, but a yr later he had to pay A LOT of money for him not to go to jail for the murders and the reason for this book was because he needed the extra money for his current legal troubles and that aint even enough he had to sell off his memorabilia to get more money…. im sick of this N***a

Illa said on September 15th, 2007

Tyson even hough he is unruly as hell he didnt deserve to get put in jail for that so-called “Rape” charge.. that lil #~ knew what she was doing, her acting all innocent in the courtroom was just that acting, anybody going to someones apartment at 2am know exactly whats going to happen there….S-E-X.. everybody and their moma knew she was never rapped she just took the ol #~ route and call casual sex $$?$ to get paid and publicly embarrass a man( which happens all too often unfortunately) the world is comming to a harsh end i’m afraid..

Reese said on September 15th, 2007

They are all just trying to make some money. No I would not buy this book, a waste of my money.

Marc Chappelle said on September 16th, 2007

Can everyone say it with me now….. F**k O.J. and that greedy fake ass family, the Goldmans. They all need to prepare for that one way trip to hell that they will be taking together. More importantly why is OJ breaking into hotels with his broke self. Please keep this rat bastard in jail this time and free the world of one more leech on society.

neena19 said on September 16th, 2007

No I would not waste my money on this book, OJ was stupid for trying to justify his actions. What about his children, has he even thought about the impact this is having on their lives. Oprah, I’m confused on why you would have a show on a book you refuse to buy or read, you lose respect on this one, helping to promote this tripe! or maybe you thought it would help the golddigging goldman family. This whole book thing is wrong on so many levels all involved are only in it for ratings for shows, and money. This is a travesty!

Tays Mom said on September 16th, 2007

I for one have no interest in the book. This happen how many years ago? We truly don’t know if he did, or didn’t but it makes him look hella suspcious. Also, if i was a Goldman, I wouldn’t take one red dime of this money. I once again have to admit it’s really strang that you would promote a book that it to tell of how your loved one was to be killed just for some money, but to each is its own!!!

cathy said on September 18th, 2007

I would not buy the book because I already have my opinion about the event. But, I will say that while he got off on the murders of Brown and Goldman, he is going to spend the rest of his life in jail for this one. And in Nevada too, stupid move, stupid man.

cathy said on September 18th, 2007

I would not buy the book. I already have my opinion about the event. But while he may have gotten off on the murders of Brown and Goldman, he will spend the rest of his life in jail. And in Nevada too, “STUPID MOVE, STUPID MAN”!!!

kawan said on September 18th, 2007

I think O.J. wrote the book so he could stay in the public eye. He has nothing else left, but his celebrity. The Goldman’s need to leave the man alone! Receiving the profits from the sale of the book is like accepting blood money. It will not bring their son back. I personally would not buy the book, because I’m not intrested in giving the Goldman’s blood money.

J.D. said on September 19th, 2007

What I believe happened in regards to O.J. and the murder of his ex-wife and her friend would take another book to explain. I am not a fan of his, never have been. The Goldman’s and Browns are no better than O.J. Did anybod watch the trial? Anyway, O.J. done went and put his foot off in it now. Johnny ain’t here to save his dumb a___. Am I the only person in America that believes that O.J. did not kill Nicole and Ron?

tn said on September 19th, 2007

O.J DIDNT KILL NICOLE N RON.N THIS ROBBERY CASE IS JUSS A SETUP……GOLDMANS ARE GOLDDIGGERS……..THE BROWNS ARE NT DAT MUCH IN THE MEDIA……GOLDMANS=GOLDDIGGERS MEDIA WHORES

monica said on September 20th, 2007

I dont get the deal wit O.J. Writing a book describing on how he would of did it makes no sense because he point more fingers at himself.He def looks suspect about the whole thing.I say he’s an idot.I’m down for da people but dont try 2 make the black man look more suspect then what he really is.O.J. please be more wise on your decisions for now on

Debra Alexander said on September 21st, 2007

IDIOTS are buying it because they are ignorant just like him and Ron Goldman’s father who is on a witch hunt. He needs to go get a life just like OJ does.

Cane said on September 25th, 2007

Oh yeah Goldman’s father is a real jerk for giving the guy who killed his son a hard time. Have some sense. Why do we insist on defending OJ. Its not like he didn’t beat his wife before the murders. Hey - I got an idea lets blame everything on the father of the guy he killed. Yeah!…..wtf?

Denise said on September 25th, 2007

Only retards would buy that book! OJ clearly got off for murder, then turns around and writes a book about how he would kill the MOTHER OF HIS CHILDREN!

TellitLikeItsReal said on September 25th, 2007

O.J is messing with these people. He’s taunting them. Do you really think for one minute that O.J is broke? Do you realize the caliber of athlete that he was for these crackers? Can you say off-shore accounts? Please…O.J got money longer than train smoke. How else could he afford to not sit down and chill? And I really don’t think he’s going down for this recent situatuion either. Yeah,…them whites are gunning for him but he’s ‘The Juice’ baby- you can grab him but you can’t hold him. Do your thing O.J. F*** the Goldmans and the Brown’s. Now you see how crackers will turn on you.

Sid said on September 25th, 2007

THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD…oh wait..not if the sword is in OJ’s hands…and one more thing…all the black people that keep supporting him…he’s still not dating black women…

Chrissy said on September 25th, 2007

The Brown and Goldmans family has already grieved for their loses now their taking advantage ofthe dealths by collecting all they can from O.J. Real families grieve and move on not become money hungry off of someone elses success. They claim the money’s for his kids but we all know who it’s for. I think O.J. know’s the mofia had them killed but he can’t say it. Let the man make his money anyway he can, and yes I will buy his book. I BELIEVE in supporting my black people. So all yall that are moochers need to getcha own and get on!!!

mssweetella said on September 25th, 2007

The law states that “You are innocent until proven guilty” and the law acquitted O’Jay of all charges. The Browns and Goldman’s have made a fortune off of O’jay and will continue to as long as America continue’s to be interested in hearing what they have to say. America keeps them and their hatred alive and burning. All real Christians need to stop fanning that fire of hate and let God work it out and do His glorious thing. Whether you were on the procecutors side or on the defense side if you aren’t on God’s side it doesn’t mean a thing because in the end God is going to have the last word. So to the Browns and the Goldman if you believe in God’s Kingdom then you believe that man will die once and after death comes the Judgement, and vengeance is mine said the Lord. Let it go and Let God!!!

t town clown said on September 26th, 2007

look the law might’ve acquitted O.J., but what the hell is he doing? i see the man doing interviews talking about he’a lady charmer and lots of ladies in hollywood would be happy if he kept his mouth shut. also how him and the kids are going to move back into the house where the kids mother was killed because the kids liked the house and that nicole had decorated it from the ceiling to the floor. this guy is just disgraceful. the law let him go, but who in their right mind doesn’t think that if he didn’t do it that he knows who he to carry it out. then take both the browns and the goldman familys through that again by selling a book title If I Did It. O.J. is a has been and wants to taunt, piss, and disgust people..especially the goldmans and browns. so, no i wouldn’t buy the book. i’d let it set on the shelf with dust on it. americans love drama and sick things. would you want some maniac kill your daughter or have her killed and then write a book about it? then keep the damn kids and move back in the house where their mother was killed. who thinks like that and does something like that? So, what family is gonna let this die when the guy responsible keeps doing crazed things to aggravate you? O.J. stop going on t.v. doing crazy interviews and having people steal your stuff from hotel rooms man. you’re career is through. you’re peaceful staying out the light, but i guess i would hunt me to have murders that i had something to do with on my mind. stop writing the books and making t.v. appearances…you want to talk and it’s bothering you because you won’t let it die. let it go and just confess.

shaq said on September 27th, 2007

OJ IS A COLDBLOODED MURDER

Ham said on October 3rd, 2007

My people, please know, O.J. did it. Let’s be real, the reason we say he didn’t do it is becaues white folkes has been getting away with killing black people for years and wrongfully jailing black men for deckheads…..This is our way of getting the white man back, feels good, except O.J. is not black-he just looks black.

Lil me said on October 4th, 2007

ok so what is the book about killin his sister

Denise said on October 7th, 2007

you know what the Bible say thou shall not kil. so if OJ killed those people thats blood on his hand. So he is just making it hard for himself. in the people eyes because he is still doing things to stay on television thats not good. OJ get your life together before its to late. Dont wait to long!!!!!!

OHDRAMA said on October 9th, 2007

OJ HAS PROVEN TIME AND TIME AGAIN THAT HE IS A TIME BOMB TICKING AND FINALLY HE BLEW UP AND WAS CAUGHT. I PERSONALLY FEEL SORRY FOR HIM BECAUSE THERE IS SOMETHING MENTALLY NOT RIGHT WITH HIM. HE WILL GO TO JAIL THIS TIME BECAUSE THEY WAS WAITING ON HIM TO DO SOMETHING ELSE STUPID AND HE DID. I THINK HE KILLED HIS WIFE AND THAT DUDE BUT I CAN’T UNDERSTAND WHY HE WOULD WRITE A BOOK ABOUT THE MURDERS THAT IS LIKE THROWING SALT INTO OPEN WOUNDS OF THE VICTIMS’ FAMILIES. THERE IS SOMETHING REALLY WRONG WITH OJ.

Bonamus said on October 11th, 2007

I really don’t even know what else to say about that brother. He is a stupid man making very stupid decisions. I really hate to use that word when referring to people, but he just don’t get it. He digging his own hole. Why in the hell would you write a book called if I did it. That’s giving people more ammunition. If he keep throwing fuel on the fire he will burn up eventually. At his own peril.

JB said on October 11th, 2007

I’m buying the book…I love non-fiction!

KEISHAV. said on October 29th, 2007

WELL OJ IS SO STUPID HE DESERVES TO GO TO JAIL, DUDE YOU GOT AWAY WITH MURDER. YOU SHOULD OF STAYED LOW AND LIVED OUT YOUR LIFE DUMB ASS, AND NO I WILL NOT BE BUYING A STUPID MURDERERS BOOK. OH YEAH THEY DIDN’T GET HIM THEN. THEY WILL GET HIM NOW…. IF YOU LOOK UP THE WORD STUPID YOU WILL SEE OJ FACE.

Cedrick said on November 9th, 2007

No,I wouldn’t buy the book.It might like a sneakly say I did it or maybe not. If so what in the world would make you put out a book ,also it keeps him further in close watch.

Ken said on November 25th, 2007

Miss Wise said on December 21st, 2007

OJ IS A DISGRACE TO BLACK PEOPLE! NOW WHY WOULD YOU GET AWAY WITH SOME MURDERS, WHICH WE DON’T KNOW IF HIS ASS DID IT. THEN WRITE A BOOK ABOUT THE MURDERS YOU DIDNT COMMIT, IT THE EXACT WAY THEY HAPPENED, THEN ROB SOMEBODY FOR THE STUFF THAT WAS TAKEN FROM YOU. JOHN COCHRAN IS DEAD, HE CAN’T SAVE YOU MAN! YOUR ASS IS GOING TO JAIL THIS TIME ORANGE JUICE! NOW HE SHOULDVE LAID LOW
