OJ Simpson is leaving prison in October, and he’s apparently pretty sad about his exit from the big house.

TMZ Sports reported early Thursday morning that “The Juice” is going to miss some stuff about prison.

They reported in part:

O.J.’s lawyer, Malcolm LaVergne, tells TMZ … Juice has been bored and sad in his current situation — in an isolated cell for his own safety since he was granted parole in July

LaVergne says O.J. actually “loved being in general population” because he’s super social and feels most comfortable around other people, and he even misses his prison jobs … like being commissioner of the softball league.

Simpson being sad about leaving prison because he’s going to miss softball is a football guy move through and through. The guy was accused of murdering two people, and was then convicted for robbery. Despite all of that, the guy is so loyal to his prison softball league, he is going to miss it when he leaves prison.

That’s what loyalty is all about. He showed he’s a true competitor even in prison. At the very least, you have to respect his spirit and consistency. As for all the other stuff, well, maybe we just won’t focus on the allegations this time.
