Worst excuse for an AP story

You've got to be kidding me:

{BC-RAC—Kentucky Derby-OJ Simpson, 1st Ld-Writethru,0384}

AP moves a 10-inch story on OJ (who's at Churchill Downs) picking Tiago.

I hope Dan Gelston lost a bet.

 

I saw that and thought the same thing. I would have asked about the murders. And then ran as he pulled out a big knife.

 

How awful would it have to be to yuck it up with someone like that?

 

Maybe he'll break a leg and be put down.

 

The writer or OJ? I'd rather see Orenthal get trampled b ya horse. Or have him fall off a rail, get run over and have a band walk over him.

Then, get his head cut off ;D ;D ;D

 

Saw it too and thought, "Why are you giving this clown a platform?"

 

buh.. buh... buh... why are you picking on OJ... he was found not guilty!

 

Not in the civil case.

 

Maybe he'll find the real killer in the mint julep line at the concession stand.

 

Because he was a celebrity. The evidence was certainly against him, but the starstruck jurors weren't.

 

Slight threadjack:
Rather than interview OJ, Has the AP done a story the fact that the longtime voice of Ky Derby (not to be confused with less-popular, but longer lasting KY Derby) will not be calling the race?
I can't remember his name, but he is famous phrase is "Down the stretch they come!"
I read somewhere he has been replaced by someone of ESPN's choosing.

 

I'm thinking his name is Dave Johnson, but I could be wrong. I also thought he didn't do last year's race, either.
