2012 ~ Ascension of Aaron The Navigator!! - New England Patriots Forums

WB Aaron "The Navigator" Hernandez

*Wing Back* Aaron "The Navigator" Hernandez is my boy.

I was screaming for us to draft this guy in the Spring of 2010 ~ and was met with almost universal scorn!! ~ and he was my first ever Super Binkie!! And I couldn't believe it when we actually did draft the guy...in the 4th Round!!

Aaron The Navigator is my #1 Pick for Explosive Break Out Player of the Year.

Prospectus

One thing I recognized two years ago ~ and which made me a rabid fan'f'm ~ was that he's got some Magic.

Nobody in New EngLand navigates the open field like Aaron Hernandez.

~ His Processing Speed is ridiculous.

~ The man is blessed with a simply freakish Instinct for where the other guy's about to go.

~ And he commands such phenomenal Fluidity that he's able to take complete advantage of it.

The combination of these attributes can be devastating.

Sometimes, when he's sliding and gliding out there, dancing almost magically ~ almost mystically ~ around the Field, around Defenders...I'm reminded of a guy who used to play for us, a few years back...

I'm here to tell you that this is the year that Aaron The Navigator puts it all together...and tears this league apart.

Love Hernandez and like your style but come on man. Bobby Orr?! He changed the game and the way a region of this country looks at it. I'm expecting a big year from him too but this I just can't agree with. How about McHale?

Brother Grid AH posses's a rare combination of strength,grace, fluidity and agility, but you've set the bar awfully high by him comparing him to Orr. Thats pretty tough to live up to.

So this Orr fella.

Was he good?

Off The Grid · 09-06-2012, 05:31 AM

We've had a misunderstanding, Gentlemen!!

I PROMISE you...

I in NO way, shape or FORM am suggesting that Aaron will have an IMPACT comparable to Bobby Orr's.

Never said it.

Never WILL.

It is only their navigational style that I'm comparing...and only "sometimes", at that!!

Orr is one of the best ever to play hockey and the best defenceman of all time he changed a position watch youtube highlights of him.

You mean the way he moves around othr players like Orr did. Some of my all time favorite memories watching Orr was when he get the puck behind his own net and skate up the side sometimes eluding the entire opposing team and then score....Breath taking.

Well played sir.

Living on the this side of the atlantic means we don't get as much exposure to hockey or baseball. i know plenty of guys in scotland who love football and know zero about other american sports. Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet.
