Aaron Hernandez Indicted for 2012 Double Murder

Ill say it again, such a waste.

I thought this might be about OJ Simpson at first. No offense to Aaron Hernandez, but I don't think he's earned the moniker "The criminal."

I should have said "the murderer" my bad

Were there any known "red flags" in his past before he was drafted?

Yes, lots of them. That is why he went in the 3rd or 4th rd. He is 1st rd talent easy.

Interesting article by Albert Breer, published Feb. 19, 2014

It's been nearly four years since I wrote, for the Boston Globe, that a number of positive drug tests led to Aaron Hernandez's precipitous fall in the 2010 NFL Draft.

This isn't revisionist history. Personnel directors and execs said then, in the days immediately after that draft, that the Florida tight end likely would've been a low first- or high second-round pick otherwise.

But there were whispers at the time, too, that Hernandez was caught up in more serious things. The word "gang" was bandied about in conversation. Since team officials I talked to at the time said it never really went past the rumor stage, we decided, in print, to stay away from it. What was obvious was this was a guy, with drugs and otherwise, who had a way of getting himself into and then out of trouble.

NOTHING BUT RED FLAGS - even before getting accepted to college - Florida did everything they could to keep him out of "trouble" or I should say to keep the trouble from making it to the press

Its quite a shame - home being from Bristol CT and all - I lived there for a few years - its not a bad town at all - but David Drive is for sure the ghetto of the town - i just dont see it as being so "thuggish" - I never felt unsafe there but that was also alomost 20 years ago too

Yes BB knew he was a murderer and drafted him anyway! BB is the devil!!!

Hernandez shot these two people in July 2012. He signed his 5 yr. extension w/ NE a month later in Aug 2012. Therefore, he did not sign the contract in good faith and NE should prevail in withholding the bonus money for which the NFLPA is fighting.

Just another example of the cesspool that Boston sports has become.

Since when is 14 years a legacy? Well wait - when did you last win a Super Bowl? Seriously. Boston has tremendous history. Sports victories have only been the last decade of a 3 century history and most of those are questionable.
