My mouth dropped when he said that... I wonder if it really happened. I'm tempted now to buy the book that the series is based on:

Johnnie Cochran’s “******, please.”
Yep, this happened. All of it, with a handful of super-small changes in the dialogue. As Darden delivers his speech, Cochran sits back in a sprawling, unconcerned posture. When he finally speaks, he does so with the measured cadence of a Greek king. As Toobin recounts in The Run of His Life, “When Cochran finally finished this peroration, he pushed to an even greater theatrical height, emotionally embracing Simpson and all the other lawyers at the defense table. Leaving at last . . . he had time only to whisper a brief word to Darden—the classic rebuke: ‘******, please . . .’ ”

I don't remember hearing the word because I've pretty much become used to hearing it all the time in movies, but a friend of mine told me they've said the word fuck a couple times in this series. I don't remember any regular cable network series or show saying the word before this. Especially on the FX network where they forbid the show Suits from saying the word. Of course they let them say "shit" so now they make sure they say it all the time...
metro, you seem like a lighthearted guy that would be fun to have beers with. I honestly can't tell if you're pushing buttons to get a reaction out of people, or if you really believe there is a 1% chance OJ is innocent. But OJ did it, man. He's the most guilty murder suspect that ever went to trial, and got off because of a dumb jury.
