The sports media for the past two weeks has been plagued by the gradual openings on the  crime story of Aaron Hernandez involvement in Odin Lloyd’s murder. It is reminiscent of the Ray Lewis murder involvement or Rae Carutth’s disappearance for murder or the infamous OJ Simpson murder trial.  Day after day, more evidence leaks to the public that packs on the already “strongly circumstantial evidence” on Aaron Hernandez as said by the presiding Judge during this bail hearing. Stories of strained relationship with teammates, gang affiliations, old police questionings on possible  murder in Florida, bar fights, domestic disturbances, It seems that the world has turned his back against him and bringing any little information out of the woodwork.
During his draft day, teams abstained from him because of his checkered past but was a first round grade, he was picked by the New England Patriots. The Patriots are very disciplined and demand utmost professionalism at all times and I felt that the team structure would change his ways. The murder of Odin Lloyd has put a  young premier tight end that was highly feared as the two offensive tight end duo (Gronkowski and Hernandez) in the dark pits of solitude. Patriots and the NFL has  successfully washed their hands off the him; the Patriots are even petitioning to recover most of the guaranteed money from him based on the owners-players agreement plan that called for “recompilation of guaranteed salary especially in high profile crime cases tin the  impending detriment of the team”( 40 million, 16 million guaranteed). Aaron’s case should be cautionary tale to the NFL and even sports players  across the world about the bringing questionable people around you. In my perspective, I believe he is involved in the murder based on the presented evidence but did he commit murder?…..It is a tough sell because the evidence points to conspiracy to commit murder, obstruction of justice but  we can never know who pulled the trigger unless one of his conspirators takes a plea bargain and points the finger at Hernandez……
If he makes it out this dilemma; which is highly unlikely,Is the NFL going to support him or any team pick him up…I don’t think so……SUCH A SAD STORY….. Â On the field, I was a big fan of Aaron’s style of play, he and Gronkowski revolutionized the tight end position, but his personal life has put a bitter taste in my mouth.
