LAS VEGAS, Nevada (CNN) -- Former football great O.J. Simpson, convicted of armed robbery and kidnapping, deserves leniency in sentencing as he is a first-time offender who showed no criminal intent, his attorney says in court papers.

O.J. Simpson should receive a six-year sentence in a 2007 hotel room confrontation, his attorney says.

What happened to OJ Simpson? He was such a great football talent in the 1970’s. Gave us many great memories. And now this...

I was wondering the same thing. He hasn’t been the same since his last Naked Gun movie. Strange, just dropped out of sight.

It wouldn't cause him a moment of distress. All OJ cares about is OJ.

If that isn’t a picture worth a thousand words I don’t know what is.

OJ and Obama have a lot in common, both are egomaniac narcissists who only care about themselves. I’d love to see the look on OJ’s face when the judge gives him life in the pokey.

I’m inclined to go with leniency on this one. Yes, I know, he got away with murder last time. But this is a separate incident. I actually always felt he was railroaded a bit on this deal, to make up for his get-out-of-jail-free on the last trial.

But I suppose what goes around, comes around. And he certainly deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail.

This picture conveys the audicity of black racism. Cheering about the acquital of an obviously guilty monster is outrageous. The cheers were not for Simpson. The cheers were payback to the man. To be happy that a murdering monster was acquitted just because of his race is the ultimate statement about black racism.

“...he is a first time offender who showed no criminal intent...”

“Clearly Simpson was not using good judgment”

“A jury convicted Simpson...of 12 charges, including conspiracy to commit a crime, assault and kidnapping with a deadly weapon.”

Does Mr. Simpson’s attorney wear curly red hair, a powdery white face, a round red nose, and rides around with 50 clowns in an ultra compact European car?

Of course. Why do you think so many blacks voted for Obama, yes, many wanted to see the first black man as President(or half black), I can understand that. But others wanted him because they thought “Hey now we can get free money from rich white people” I have heard them say it, free money, free gas, free mortgage, free house, and free food, that is their mentality. These are the same people that cheered when OJ got away with murder. I remember that day like it was yesterday, and I live in Los Angeles so I know how it was, I went to the protest a few days later. I was so pissed. I kept saying “The Butcher is back in Brentwood” hopefully now justice will be served
