Abstract
- The article profiles O. J. Simpson, running back for the Buffalo Bills National Football League (NFL) team. Prior to joining the Bills, Simpson made his name as a top player at the University of Southern California (USC). He signed a contract with the Bills allegedly worth 350,000 U.S. dollars. His first game as an NFL player was against the Detroit Lions where his team lost 24-12. According to the author, the Bills were not Simpson's first choice at the NFL but the team has won the right to draft him.
