LAS VEGAS — David Hasselhoff and University of Arizona football go hand-in-hand. It was only natural for the guy who claimed UA to be “fucking awesome” from the student section to sing the national anthem at the Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl on Saturday.

Viva the Hoff.

This is OJ Simpson’s newest mug shot.

He doesn’t look very sorry now.

Johnnie Cochran had the persuasive personality every 6-year-old would love to have after just taking the last cookie from the jar, looking into Mom’s eyes and saying with chocolate breath and crumbed corners, “No, ma’am, I didn’t take it.”

In the wake of OJ Simpson’s new jail sentencing, the Washington Post’s Marc Fisher has released off-the-record comments from Cochran, Simpson’s late lawyer, about the former Heisman winner.

Now that he’s dead, the comments are fair game.

“There’s something wrong with him,” Cochran said, and he talked
about other clients he’d had who somehow managed to persuade themselves
that they hadn’t done what they actually had done.

Simpson was a big star, a hero to some, a talented person. But,
said Cochran, “I wouldn’t believe him if he told me the sun was coming
up again tomorrow morning.”

Shit, man. Sometimes the truth just feels so fucking good. RIP Johnnie C.
