Five reasons why Blake is no OJ

[Longhorn85]

1. He is not as good-looking.

2. His wife was not as good-looking.

3. The Beretta series is only in limited syndication (although it should pick up now).

4. He has yet to assemble a "Dream Team".

5. The murder weapon was a pistol (unimaginative).

 

[Longhorn85]

But it will be a circus nonetheless

6. He hasn't been in the public eye in a long time

7. No race card.

Who is Blake ?

 

[dballer]

HE WAS NEVER IN A HERTZ AD!!!!

 

[Longhorn85]

8. Never played pro sports

9. Hasn't worked since a brief appearance on "Love Boat"

 

[Longhorn85]

Who is Blake ?

Robert Blake as "Beretta" has been accused of murdering his wife

10. more of an open and shut case IMO, so there will be less controversy.

My guess is that the folks in LA aren't going to be rioting over this one.

 

[dballer]

Point Blank.. he is not even 1/8th as cool as OJ.

He did not drive a Bronco with the world watching... Blake sucks ass.

no shit. would anyone really care if blake was in a slow speed chase a la OJ? would those idiots in southern cali stand on the street corner and waive signs in favor of blake like they did for OJ? Hell no!

I admit it....

I am a fan of OJ Simpson.

 

[big4life]

Why Blake is no OJ....

OJ got away with murder, Blake will fry.

I admit it....

I am a fan of OJ Simpson.

Scared as hell of OJ.

Whats funny is I remember seeing Robert Blake in an interview with Tom Snyder years ago and he was more whacko then that dude whp played George Mcfly in the Back to the future movies.

Anyways when I was watching this interview all I could think was how whacko he was and that I would not be surpised if he killed someone or himself one day.

He is a really fucked up dude. His life before fame was something else too, really fucked up.

By the way did they name that gun the Baretta after him or did they name the show after the gun.

 

[Longhorn85]

It's been a long time since Baretta (thanks for the correct spelling MH) was on. I actually remember it and some of the other popular detective shows of the day:

Cannon
Barnaby Jones
Petrocelli
Mannix
Columbo

My Mom and Pop never missed these shows.

yeah here in LA they are gonna make him take the heat for the OJ shit too, they will fry his ass just cause oj was not guilty, the guy has no chance in hell to beat it, and also the city knew if they convicted OJ the whole city would burn up in flames and riots...hell I always thought OJ was innocent, just as he was not guilty, people forget all the coke and shit that faye resnick and nicole were doing, they were in major debt to cocaine lords, and they had to pay...............Blake is gonna go down for sure, just cause the city doesnt want to look bad again.

 

[rushx79]

coke lords dont have to people stabbed to death like that.. that was a sign of pure rage brought on by extreme emotions..

 

[Longhorn85]

the media will try and make this case in OJ 2 though

CourtTV executives are sportin' wood right about now

Usually crimes of rage like that are not as premeditated, more spontaneous, done with guns. Like the recent knucklehead in Dallas who blew his two daughters away while his ex listened on the speaker phone.
