Well, folks, stick a fork in O.J. Simpson–the man is done.  Convicted of a laundry list of crimes stemming from an incident last year today, with sentencing to follow in a couple months, in which Simpson led an armed band of men into a rented hotel suite in an attempt to “get his stuff back” from a couple of sports memorabilia dealers.

It’s nice to not have to say ALLEGEDLY any more.

The former Naked Gun star, whose career has been somewhat dead for the last couple decades, is now facing a life sentence in prison, prompting longtime observers to wonder with trepidation: NOW who will conduct the tireless search for the TRUE killers of Ron Brown and Nicole Simpson?  Although those same observers must admit that the search really wasn’t getting all that far anyway.

As for ramifications, well, if Simpson is locked up for life, chances are all his assets will be liquidated to pay the as-yet-outstanding civil court judgment against him in which he was declared civilly liable for the deaths of Brown and Simpson.  No word yet if the “stuff” Simpson was trying to “get back” will be part of the settlement.

Even more amazing is that this guilty verdict was handed down thirteen years TO THE DAY that he got his “not guilty” verdict in the murders of Brown and Simpson. Now, it could just be the horror buff in me talking, but a coincidence that incredibly close smacks of some kind of preordination.  What, did he forget to sacrifice his virgin this year and Cthulhu or whoever decided to call the marker in?

But all of this is rather small compared to the grief no doubt being felt by Simpson’s children, so we all really need to take a step back and remember a couple of collateral damage victims here.

They just lost a father today.
