Oh no, they di'int...

Since Take-Two Entertainment couldn't get NFL permission to use current players and teams for their All-Pro Football 2k8, they looked to the past to resurrect great retired and dead players to use instead. Now, I don't have a problem with them using O.J. Simpson--he was quite the running back in his day. But to raise a little buzz and controversy I guess to publicize their game, O.J. plays for a team called the Assassins. Check out the knife-wielding mascot at the end of this clip, too. Clever gimmick or just poor taste--you decide:

I could launch into a big written statement, but it would still come down to poor taste.
