Lughead Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Hernandez being questioned about a dead body and a car rented in his name. Police in Massachusetts want to question New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez regarding the investigation of a homicide near the tight end's home in North Attleboro, ABC News reported Tuesday.Citing an unnamed source, SI.com reported that Hernandez was not believed to be a suspect, but a vehicle rented in his name appears to be a key piece of evidence. ABC News reported that Hernandez has not been cooperative and investigators wanted a warrant Tuesday to search his home. The ABC News report also cited unnamed sources. SI.com later reported that police searched Hernandez's home Tuesday night, and two men were escorted from the scene separately, but they were not in handcuffs. The homicide being investigated involves a body found about 5:30 p.m. Monday night in North Attleboro, according to the Bristol County District Attorney's Office. Prosecutors released no other information Tuesday night about the investigation. When asked specifically about Hernandez, Yasmina Serdarevic, a spokeswoman for the district attorney's office, declined to comment. Patriots spokesman Stacey James told ABC News: "I am aware of the reports, but I do not anticipate that we will be commenting publicly during an ongoing police investigation." NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Wednesday morning that the league would have no comment on the investigation. A fourth-round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, Hernandez has emerged as one of Tom Brady's favorite weapons. Hernandez will be even more vital to New England's offense if Rob Gronkowski is forced to miss time in the regular season after undergoing back surgery on Tuesday. Hernandez signed a seven-year, $41.1 million contract extension with the Patriots in August 2012. Follow Dan Hanzus on Twitter @DanHanzus. Gronk going in for more surgery (back this time) Jake Ballard and Daniel Fells next in line if Gronkowski and Hernandez can not start Also looking at the Pats WR corps no one jumps out at you other than the gnome and Amendola and they don't really jump out. could Brady be in for a rough season? 16 Aiken, Kamar 80 Amendola, Danny 82 Boyce, Josh 17 Dobson, Aaron 11 Edelman, Julian 13Harrison, Mark 83 Hawkins, Lavelle 10 Jenkins, Michael 19 Jones, Donald 18 Slater, Matthew 85 Thompkins, Kenbrell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmenroc Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 All these guys that screw the pooch at this level are complete fucking morons. Vick was one, this guy is another, and I'm sure without much trouble, we could create a long list. I go back to the argument that these guys are put on pedestals from the time they're really little and it creates individuals who don't simply think they can get away with anything. But more and more, it seems that the players have regressed even further to folks whose conscience and whose general ability to think before they act are so limited that it isn't even a decision anymore. There's no active thought it seems to decide to shoot a guy or not...just the action. It's truly sad and pathetic, but gets worse every year with high school football on ESPN, with social media parents putting their kids on youtube and facebook, with rating high school prospects, with college recruiting practices, with the announcement of the 'next big star' who's currently finishing up middle school. The pedestal is only getting taller and the ramifications are only going to get worse. What's more startling than this is that some guys come out with a solid head on their shoulders.

Steitzenhaus Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 The guy has the world on a string Jim........how fucking dumb does this guy have to be to piss away a dream like this. I don't get it. C. Wagon Oh he's really dumb. So is Pac Man Jones. I don't get it either. How someone who is essentially living a fantasy and won't have to work another day in his life if he could just avoid being an asshole can be so cavalier and reckless with their opportunity. It pisses me off actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 What's more is that these guys will actually admit to living their dream. And yet, the risk throwing it all away with a few selfish endeavors and/or thoughtless actions. I understand heat of the moment actions and all, but again it's a much, much bigger issue than that. But where does the fault lie? Is it the consumer who's constantly looking for information on what players their favorite college is getting? Is it the media who's now ranking the players at younger and younger ages? Is it the parents who shamelessly promote their child as the next big star? Is it the stigma created by the NFL/NFLPA that these players feel they're untouchable that they can live a care free life due to their notariety and income? You could argue that the media is giving the fans what they want and that it isn't their job to act ethically by eliminating the rankings and promotion of high school athletics. You could argue that parents simply want the best for their children, even if 'the best' is debatable. And you could argue that the NFL/NFLPA simply want to work out the best deals and best situations for the players they employ. So despite the negative impact to these players as people, there's really not any motivation for any of the parties involved to change the process. I guess at the end of the day, it can be summarized as simply as this, that the fans/parents/media care about the player and couldn't give a fuck less about the person right up until the person side destroys the player side...then, and only then, it's an issue, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Looks like Tom Brady will start the season without his top 5 pass catchers from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightFire Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 This is why Hernandez was drafted so late. Exactly. Still running with the wrong crowd. Actually when you become rich the wrong crowd starts to become bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Looks like Tom Brady will start the season without his top 5 pass catchers from last year. No Woodhead, no TEs, no Lloyd, no Welker... ol' Hoodie is gonna have to pull a rabbit out of his hat on this one. The good news is you can still get Lloyd, Austin Collie, Steve Breaston, and even Randy Moss if you really felt like it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 God, Hernandez would have been a fantasy MONSTER this season with all those other guys out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Something tells me Tom Brady will be fine without those guys. He has the uncanny ability to make everyone around him better, not unlike Eli and Peyton. In fact, I consider him the best quarterback I've ever seen play.
