And he also needed over 190 yards in the final game (in the Buffalo snow) to reach 2000 yards. Pretty freaking impressive.

He was just practicing for when he would need to run from the cops!


Sorry...but yea that is freakishly athletic. Only 8 guys to ever do it in all these years and he did it in less games?

Personally I will always remember him as Nordberg though...I mean, aside from all the domestic abuse, armed robbery and stabbings.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I’m too young to have seen him play. There are two things (besides the murders) that I remember OJ for.

Hertz Commercial

No doubt, that's what he's remembered for, Death and Destruction. However, strictly football wise, 2000 yards in 14 is also...crazy
