Here's something to think about.

@HTTR24_7: Think Hernandez gets smacked with Murder at his arraignment today.Guaranteed NFL security knows more than the public.Probably why he was cut

[JoeRedskin]

As I said earlier, the evidence is pretty clear that four men went into a room and three and a corpse came out and, subsequently, Hernandez actively destroyed things that would likely provide information as to why that occurred.

We may not be sure of exactly what he is guilty, but, at a minimum, he intentionally hindered the lawful investigation of this murder.

I believe it is safe to say that he is, at a minimum, guilty of obstruction. Even without knowing all the facts.

Its also clear the Police had issues with how Hernandez handled the whole thing. Otherwise they would have just asked for him to turn himself in instead of handcuffing him and making him do the "perp walk" in handcuffs in front of all the cameras. That was the local Police giving him the middle finger.

@ProFootballTalk: Source with direct knowledge of Hernandez situation tells us: "Assume the worst."

Once he signs his $40 Million extension, the TV trucks will be on his lawn too.

They had a strong team, no doubt. Now look at their divisional opponents during that time. It's similar to the NE situation, that was my point.

Weak team winning the SB? Dafuq?

Pats will take at least a $7.5 million cap charge for Hernandez in 2014 | ProFootballTalk

Well since he'll likely never play again, it had to be done regardless.

We won't be seeing a Ray Lewis-like return under Goodell. Ray committed his murder under Tagliabue, who was less of a disciplinarian.

I cant believe the NFL players continue to commit crimes at this pace. So your gonna have 2 players today charged with murder-related crimes?

Theres a famous saying I've heard before on the NFL shows by former players and coaches.

"You may leave the hood, but the hood never leaves you."

A lot of NFL players come from bad areas and being great at a sport is their only way out of the hood (meaning less of a chance of them going to jail or ending up dead because of gang related activities).

I still remember when I was at Tysons Mall back in 07 to get Clinton Portis, Santana Moss and Sean Taylors (he had a 'delayed flight' so didn't show) autographs. Along with them was TJ Houshmanzadeah and Chad Johnson.

My immediate thought when I saw them wasn't "Wow thats Chad Johnson" it was "Damn, they look like street thugs." If you were there that day in the mall you would have said the same thing. The redskin fan behind me said the same thing, something along the lines of "He looks like he's a character from The Wire".

Fast forward to today and Chad not only looks like a thug, but he is a thug. Headbutting his wife and cheating on her and smacking lawyers asses in court. The point is the hood never left Chad Johnson.
It just enrages me that these guys have their lives set when they get to the NFL and they all go blow it all away.
