A bunch of people have said that, if he turns out to be guilty of a felony crime in connection with a murder, they don't want him on the team. IF being the operative word. A bunch of people have also said that, given everything that's emerged, things aren't looking great for him right now. I'm still hoping against hope that he's innocent, but admittedly that's looking less likely by the day.
Which of those things is disgusting to say?
No im not talking about the rational folks on the site, I saying the people who are those "the sky is falling" members here, who are absolutely get too emotionally and so quick to make judgement. I agree, I would not want him on the time if convicted. We are not the Bengals or Raiders, we are freakin New England Patriots and that's not how we conduct business. And like it said it isnt looking good at all
Which is why about 95% of the posters on here are prefacing everything that they say with "let's wait for all the facts to come out before reaching any definitive conclusions".
95%, you know and I know that's stretching it a bit there are some folks on here that..........well you know
That's in the court of law, and is barely relevant to public opinion. Reminds me of those people who flip out and cry that their First Amendment rights are being violated because people boycott their products due to their ****ty opinions.
The public won't the one who send him to jail if found guilty and they wont be the one who exonerates him if found innocent, we dont hold that power.
If/when charges are brought against Hernandez and he's tried in court, the jury will be instructed that he's innocent until proven guilty. I won't be on that jury, so it simply doesn't apply to me or, most likely, anyone else on this board.
It's almost a forgone conclusion that he will be involved in this trial one way or another whether it be as a witness or defendant. And yea, pretty good chance no Pats fans will be on that jury.
Yes, and I wish him all the best and hope that, if he's innocent, he'll be able to put this all behind him and move on with his life. But if he's guilty, none of what you said will or should prevent him from facing justice.
I truly hope that he is not the absolute knucklehead that the media is making him out to be, though there seems to be some truth behind all these reports of others incidents coming. Although I do find it ironic that all this stuff seems to be coming out of left all at the same exact time. You mean to tell me nobody knew about this and all of sudden in a matter days AH goes from pretty good young TE to absolute Thug and NFL Bad Guy Poster Child???
Ok, now you've gone completely off the deep end. Give one example of a poster on this site (who isn't one of the standard raving lunatics that I probably already have on ignore) who has said that Hernandez is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Almost everyone has said exactly what you said when you started that increasingly incoherent rant: that the situation looks pretty grim.
Well unfortunately, I dont have those lunatics filtered out so the complete nonsense they post still is visible to me. So I dont get 100% rational people's post on my screen, I get everybody. While you may have that preference, I do not as many others don't either. So no almost everyone has not said the exact same thing. And look no further than this thread, about 50% of folks who have voted said that either the predict and/or personally wish that AH is jailed and cut from the team. And please don't act like this the first or last time members of this board have jettisoned a player for whatever reason whether it be rational or irrational.
