PHILADELPHIA _ Thanks to Kobe Bryant, O.J. Simpson can now hunt for the "real killers" in peace.
Eight years after O.J., it's time for a new "Trial of the Century."
And the State of Colorado vs. Kobe Bryant has all the elements of the next great cable-news soap opera:
Celebrity, sex, violence and high stakes.
Fortunately, no one is dead.
