I was playing Trivial Pursuit the other day and one question asked "Which of OJ's lawyers stated he wanted nothing to do with OJ's trial because it was a sure loser?"

Answer: Johnny Cochran

I am positive Vick can get himself an OJ jury in Atlanta, but will he end up a complete wreck like OJ?

The trial is in Virgina, not Georgia.

Also, he is dealing with the Fed's (95% conviction rate) not a bunch of goof balls that bungled the OJ trial.

I am positive Vick can get himself an OJ jury in Atlanta,

1. The trial won’t be in Atlanta. It will be in Virginia.

2. This isn’t a ‘county’ prosecution, its a Federal prosecution. OJ literally ‘outspent’ Los Angeles COUNTY. Vick can’t ‘outspend’ the Federal Government.

3. Vick now faces three witnesses, not including his ‘cousin’ who wasn’t indicted. OJ killed all ‘witnesses’.

4. Vick’s already busted on ‘obstruction’ based on his original denials of knowing about the kennel, knowing what was going on at the house.

5. The IRS will have something to say about the unreported financial gains - reported to be in numerous cases to be over 20,000 dollars. Consider what the IRS does to those who bet on horses and try to hide the winning....then note they took down Al Capone back in the day on far less evidence, without any other government entity helping that ‘revenuers’.

There is no comparision, in short, to the OJ case.
