O.J. Simpson was released from prison on Sunday morning and is back to being salty as hell thanks to a long car ride.
After nine years behind bars, Hall of Fame running back O.J. Simpson was quietly released on Sunday morning. He’s on parole, but he’s a free man and you’d think that he’d be back to being the old cheesy O.J. he was before he went off the rails in the late 2000s.
After all, that’s what he sold the parole board on in a nationally televised hearing.
O.J. was rushed by some paparazzi after he was released and wasn’t his bubbly self. When asked about how it feels to be a free man after nine years in prison, Simpson was less than enthusiastic.
"“I’m in a car for the last five hours, so how do I know how it feels to be out? I’ve been in nowhere U.S.A. for the last nine years doing nothing. Nothing has changed in my life. What do you expect?”"
Car rides make us all cranky, even The Juice.
This isn’t really the rosy start to his freedom that some maybe thought would happen. One of the reasons he was released early was because he had established he was rehabbed from the person he was when he was sent to prison for armed robbery and a slew of other charges.

Back in his heyday, Simpson was the bubbly life of the party no matter where he was or who he was talking to. Granted that was 30 years ago when life was a lot better and in a very different place for Simpson. This might be the introduction to the latest version of O.J., the grizzled old man who just wants to be left alone.
