Posted By:Darren RovellSo the media has spent countless hours talking about O.J. Simpson's latest--potentially being the ringleader in an armed robbery that involved taking items from a sports memorabilia store in Las Vegas. But I still haven't seen a complete list of what he stole. Read More Topics:Internet | Media | Print Media | Marketing | Advertising |... more »

Sports Illustrated on Campus has just released its list of what it believes are the best Trojan athletes of all time. The staff at Sports Illustrated didn't shy away from personal scandal and professional controversy when making their picks. They simply chose the best of the best of the best. And no, not all that made the top ten list played SC football. These Trojan greats, both men and women alike, formed a cross-section of collegiate sports. The played with racquets, bats, hoops and balls. They swam, stole, hit and ran their way into the history books, breaking university, Pac-10 and NCAA records.
These proud ten came to attend USC from all over the world, with different backgrounds and different dreams. But they all shared one commonality: they were part of a larger Trojan family...a family made greater by the legacy they've left behind.
Take Two Interactive is drawing extra criticism (attention) today for not just including O.J. Simpson in their video game, but featuring him on a team called "the Assassins" where a touchdown (at the end of the video) prompts an over-sized Grim Reaper-like mascot to celebrate with a knife.
Brian Grummell, AOL Fan House Back in 1967, there was a hotly contested battle between city rivals #1 UCLA and #2 USC. UCLA quarterback and eventual Heisman Trophy winner Gary Beban had a fine afternoon throwing the ball despite aching ribs. However, his solid play was not quite enough as a fatigued O.J. Simpson made perhaps the most fabled... more »
I've been overwhelmed by your literacy. At last count, I had more than 200 recommendations for our summer reading list, which will be unveiled at Lake Highlands' White Rock Coffee next Wednesday if I can convince the owners to turn down The Fray's "How to save a life," which plays on a continuous loop. Sadly, I've decided to leave O.J.... more »
Because EA and their Madden franchise were anointed as the "exclusive" makers of NFL video games, developers have been looking for a way around it.
Enter All-Pro Football 2K8 from 2K Sports, a subsidiary of Take Two Interactive, most famous for Grand Theft Auto.
LEGENDS - Over 240 NFL legends make their return to the gridiron, including Hall of Famers such as Johnny Unitas, Dick Butkus, Joe Montana, Mike Singletary, Reggie White, Walter Payton and "the Juice" himself -- O.J. Simpson.
SIGNATURE STYLE - Legends have their own signature moves in the game - Barry's spin, Walter's scissors kick, Jerry's one-handed grab -- they're all there.
The game will be out later this year on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 and will cost $59.95.
The star running back and the recently deceased blond bombshell were in Naked Gun 33 1/3 together (1994).
If a 12 year gap is at all puzzling, kudos to you for thinking, but the Juice told Norm Pardo, his videographer from 2000-2005, that he "had" slow-moving juice.
"He said he knew Anna Nicole pretty well, and he said he had slow-moving sperm, and he might be the father."
No, we are not joking. That quote was printed in the NY Post's Page Six.
Live from the Shrine Auditorium in the center of the universe -- sunny Los Angeles, California -- it's the TrojanWire 1,000th Post Spectacular Special. Featuring appearances by Reggie Bush, Salma Hayek, Matt Leinart, Paris Hilton, Pete Carroll, Carson Palmer, Stephen Colbert, Junior Seau, Snoop Dogg, Marcus Allen, Ted Knight, Bacon-wrapped Hot Dogs, Keith Rivers, Henry Winkler, Lofa Tatupu, Alyssa Milano, Charles White, Shrek, Anthony Davis, Kirsten Dunst, Oscar Lua, Judith Regan, and many more.
Sparing further embarrassment, if that's even possible, News Corp. decides to pull the plug on OJ's "If I Did It" -- a hypothetical scenario where O.J. Simpson could have killed Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman.
A release that's coming just in time for Christmas, an "If I Did It, Here's How It Happened" book, is a hypothetical scenario where O.J. Simpson could have killed Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman, which apparently is still very much up for debate by some of the most esteemed commenters on the Internet.
Fox is going to air a 2-part interview on November 27th and 29th -- 2 weeks before the books release.
Funny thing is NBC's staunch refusal of the content, considering the network's previous employment of Simpson, and the firing of SNL's Norm MacDonald -- just because of jokes made towards O.J. (NBC's Dick Ebersol being an old friend of the Juice).
"This is not a project appropriate for our network," said Rebecca Marks, a spokeswoman for the entertainment division of NBC.
Of course an O.J. interview may not cross the Jack Bauer threshold for sheer awesomeness, but really, what does?
NBC could really be missing the boat here -- especially if Fox ever brings back the Mother of all Animal Shockumentaries -- "When Animals Attack!"
