And he did all this shit AFTER signing for the big bucks. Dumber than a sack of hammers doesn't even begin to define this fuckstick.

I guess some males just have to prove that they are "tough guys" with "street cred."

Enjoy the rest of your life in the Big House you stupid asshole. You more than earned it.

He started a bar fight when he was at U of F, the cops came, and his teammate, Tim Tebow had to straighten it out.

I picture Tebow parting the bar fight like moses

Tebow is an easy target to make fun of, ...............but he's actually a pretty damn decent guy.

Hernandez's attorney, Sultan, told jurors that Hernandez "witnessed" Lloyd's killing, "committed by somebody he knew," and that the former NFL player "really didn't know what to do, so he put one foot in front of another" and moved on with his life.

you have to choose something to tell the jury.

Some pundits think it indeed gave the jury pause since they deliberated for 36 hours. I'm no expert, but I think some pundits don't really know what the hell they are talking about when the jury just takes their time and reviews all evidence.

He still has the double-murder(?) trial in Florida to go through, also.

19. Double murder trial

will also be held here in Mass, probably during the summer from what I heard.

As far as pundits go, IMO most of them don't know their asses from their elbows.

Nobody just reports the news anymore...now they have to add their own two cents (i.e. stupid opinions)

And, as soon as a Prosecutor or Defense Team Lawyer gets on a high-profile jury, their mug is on the TV every other trial thereafter. lol!

eventually there will have enough players as inmates to field a team.
It was pretty incredible how emotionless that douchebag just stood there, during the family comments.

spending 50 or more years in prison. He's only 25. It gives me the willies to think of a whole lifetime wasted like that when he could have been free and living a good and productive (not to mention famous) life.

And yeah...the prison is like 1.5 miles from Gillette stadium. He'll spend the rest of his life hearing the cheers filling the air during home games. No doubt wishing he could be out there with the rest of them.
