Death and Justice
5 Card Stud
1st & Ten (1984
–1990)

O.J., Meloni and Ron Shipp appeared in
one fifth
season episode of 1st & Ten
The
1984 pilot episode of HBO's
1st &
Ten introduces Mark Fuhrman's Idaho hunting buddy
Marshall Teague as a
California Bulls football
player and Ruta Lee as the team's publicity director. A few
episodes into season 1, Sam Scarber as the Bull's star
running back injures himself in a running-through-the-airport car
rental commercial. The director turns to his assistant and says,
"Get a hold of O.J.'s agent. Make sure he's available." In the
1st & Ten
universe, the man who looks and sounds exactly like O.J.
Simpson is an invisible
Bulls superstar running back named T.D. Parker.

S eason 2 of
1st & Ten opens with O.J.
Simpson making his first appearance as T. D. Parker. In season 3 he moves from the team's head coach to its general manager.
Delta Burke is the Bulls' owner.
Roy Thinnes is her scheming silent partner. She holds a hand full of diamonds
in the form of a diamond-studded broach he gives her that spells out "BULLS." When she thanks him he tells her, "You already have a diamond, T.D.
Parker." In episode 9 of season 3, T.D breaks the heart of his mistress Kay with a speech about his wife and child when he is inducted into the mythical North American Football
League Hall of Fame.

The actress playing Kay, T.D.
Parker's
secretary and mistress, is Alexa Hamilton
A one-of-a kind diamond ring was presented to O.J. Simpson upon his 1985 induction into the real NFL Hall of Fame. That was the year Mark Fuhrman falsely claimed he
went to O.J.'s home on a domestic dispute call. He wrote about it in a February 1989 letter to the Los Angeles City Attorney.
Christopher Meloni
plays Mark Fuhrman in
Murder in Greenwich. He made his first appearance on
1st
& Ten
as the Bull's
quarterback Johnny Gunn, # 13, on
New Years Day 1989. But the
most important actor in the series, relative to
the 5 Card Stud bartender, is
Charles Meshack. He is the 1st &
10 bartender in season 2, episode 8. Note the
Boston Celtic's banner over Meshack
the
bartender's right shoulder in the bottom-right
screenshot.
You won't find
Charles
Meshack's name in the 1st & Ten credits but you can't mistake him as the bartender in
Action Jackson (1988) and a
preacher
in
C.I.A. Code Name: Alexa ('92). In that movie Lorenzo Lamas is
CIA Agent Mark Graver. O.J. is LAPD Det.
Nick Murphy working on a
multiple homicide case in which Meshack's character performing a jaw-dropping
funeral service, is the first victim. Keep
in mind the German Stiletto that Fuhrman and Roberts didn't find when they searched O.J.'s house.
Also keep in mind the "ski mask"
(# 17)
in
Mark Fuhrman's Bundy notes that turned into a "black knit cap"
in his book and what he said on
tape about killing gang members, pimps and drug dealers.
Now look at what you get with
Charles Meshack
as a minister performing a funeral service for a gang member, pimp,
drug dealer and killer in
C.I.A. Code Name: Alexa.
Notice that the
killer with the German
Stiletto wears a "ski mask" like a "black knit cap."
