i am hugely averse to anything that perpetuates the assumed guilt/trial by media bullshit so it sucks how this went down, but it was totally in character for the organization and you don't know what else they knew about him. maybe the matt light thing points to something substantive, maybe it's a 30-something white midwesterner talking about a young hispanic dude. there is no great sense of shock emanating from the environs of gillette stadium tho. i've yet to hear anyone say "he was the last person you would expect to do something like this".

there must've been some major locker room issues or some kind of disconnect from his teammates that belichick kept in house, idk.

Hernandez was the only guy in the locker room who wouldn't participate in Belichick's pre-game puppy-eating ritual

i feel like at this point it's clear that dude got away with so many murders/attempted murders that he thought nothing of leaving an almost unprecedented amount of circumstantial evidence

Hernandez is acclimating well to jail and was moved Monday from the medical unit, where he's been closely watched since arriving, to a different unit.
eh?
― how's life, Wednesday, 3 July 2013 18:46 (eleven years ago) link
in audio interview, they made it clear that the medical unit is private. SOP was probably to make sure he wasn't a suicide risk and do a psych eval and also to keep him out of gen pop until they were able to acclimate prison staff to understand how to deal with having a celebrity inmate. Don't think he has any medical issues.

idgi, was this dude creating sock accounts to drive the price up? cos if not, every auction gives the seller the option to sell to the second (or third, or fourth, all the way down the line) highest bidder...so um, not a very effective bit of trolling. And no matter what you set your max bid at, eBay only sets your current bid at the max required to win (unlike the old old days where it was actually possible to bid against yourself).

Gronkowski, who did not have a cast on his surgically repaired arm, said he was in "great spirits" Thursday while promoting his book "Growing up Gronk," but he had less to say when NFL.com's Albert Breer asked him about the league's crime problems.
"Ask Roger Goodell," Gronkowski said.
As for Dennard and Hernandez, Gronkowski said, "I don't have any comment on that."

Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez is now the subject of a grand jury looking into the shooting death of two men in July 2012, reports the Boston Globe.
Hernandez is already behind bars and pleaded not guilty to the execution-style murder of 27-year old Odin Lloyd and is being held without bail at Bristol County House of Correction in Massachusetts. He is due in Attleboro District Court on Wednesday for a probable cause hearing.
The investigation of the killing of two Cape Verdean immigrants is now in the grand jury’s hands and it seems to be focused on Hernandez, the Globe reported. Investigators believe Hernandez drove Lloyd to an industrial park, then shot him because he was worried Lloyd had information about the South End double homicide and might talk.
Safiro Furtado and Daniel Abreu were shot early on July 16, 2012, in the South End when someone in a sport utility vehicle with Rhode Island license plates pulled up next to their car and began firing.
“The case against Hernandez appears to be strengthening,” one of the officials said. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the case.

positive notes coming out of the joint practices. reiss &co seem cautiously excited about some of the young WRs. amendola mostly looking the part. brady killing it. LB group strong and deep. sounds like it will be the secondary that kills the team again, tho on a brighter note, pat chung looks even worse as an eagle apparently.

[Rolling Stone] also asserts that Patriots coach Bill Belichick had become so infuriated with Hernandez missing practices and demonstrating other thuggish behavior that he “was one misstep from being cut.”
that's one hell of a "misstep", murdering someone for talking about how you murdered someone else
