Patriots Meltdown of 2013

Just wondering how this guy was still out, if he had shot someone in the eye prior to this? Now the guy who got shot in the eye is coming out? I guess shooting someone in the eye/head isn't enough for releasing him but being charged is?
 
So because he's a football player no one here is going to whip out their tin foil and fashion a fancy hat and scream conspiracy about this one? You guys are missing a great opportunity!
 
This could basically end any chance of Tom Brady getting a 4th ring.

The lost Welker.
Hernandez has been waived.
Gronk is out for at least 6 weeks.

This will prevent them from getting home field advantage in the playoffs...if they even make it to the playoffs.

If it's them vs. Denver in Denver and Denver is healthy, Peyton pulls it out.

I give Tom Brady (who will be 36 in August) 2-3 more years to put up good numbers. They've lost a lot on offense and they don't have much of a defense. Even if they manage to draft well, by the time they fix their defensive woes, Brady will be ready to retire.

This year was really the last great chance they had to do it one more time and it's looking a lot like that ain't gonna happen. The AFC is a weaker conference than the NFC right now but there are still some strong teams that will beat the Patriots come playoff time if they're playing at home.

So yeah, I think you're seeing the last of what was once a dynasty.
 
The Patriots haven't won a Superbowl since they stopped cheating 8 fucking years ago.

Those are the facts!

Brady best QB ever? LMAO... Good one!
 
Tebow is a tight end for the Patriots. Watch.
Shame for Hernandez, he just got his 40 million contract. Now he doesn't even get to taste the big money.


BTW cant wait for the Eagle vs Pats pre season game. Duck fan rooting for Chip Kelly
 
Some serious Big Brother intel on Hernandez' actions

The following was obtained through cell phone records, cell phone tower tracking, and multiple sources of surveillance footage.
June 16

9:02 p.m.: Hernandez texts a friend out of state, saying "please make it back."

9:05: Hernandez texts Lloyd that he wants to get together.

9:35: Hernandez texts a friend in Connecticut that says "get your ass up here."

10:23: Hernandez texts the same friend, "Hurry your ass up."

McCauley indicated that Hernandez recently had 14 surveillance cameras installed in his home. Video from the cameras show two men arriving at Hernandez's home in North Attleboro. Later footage shows Hernandez with a firearm. At one point, Hernandez says to one of the men that he "can't trust anyone anymore," according to McCauley.

June 17

1:12 a.m.: The three men depart Hernandez's home in a silver Nissan Altima, according to surveillance video, cell phone towers and cell phone records.

Cell towers track their movement south on Interstate 95. At some point, they turn around, then head north before stopping at a gas station on Route 128.

2:10: Hernandez buys gas, a pack of Bubblicious gum and rolling papers.

2:32: The silver Altima arrives at Lloyd's house. Hernandez sends a text message: "We're here."

Lloyd's sister watches Odin Lloyd leave the house and get into the silver Altima. Neighborhood surveillance video shows Hernandez arriving in the neighborhood as well.

Surveillance video tracks the car around Boston.

McCauley explains that during ride back toward North Attleboro, Hernandez tells Lloyd that when they were at a club, Rumor, the previous Friday night, "certain things upset him," including Lloyd talking to some people Hernandez had "troubles" with. McCauley did not indicate how he obtained this information.

Prosecution says the text indicates the "temperature" in the car.

3:07: Lloyd texts his sister, "Did you see who I was with?"

McCauley suggests that this indicates the "temperature" in the car.

Lloyd does not receive a response.

3:11: Lloyd texts his sister again, "Hello."

3:19: Lloyd's sister responds, "My phone was dead. Who?"

3:22: Lloyd responds, "NFL."

3:23: Lloyd: "Just so you know."

By this point, the four men inside the silver Altima have gotten off I-95 on Route 152, near Hernandez's home, McCauley says records show.

3:23 a.m.: McCauley says surveillance video shows the Altima at a fork in the road. McCauley indicates that one way leads to Hernandez's home, the other down a gravel road where Lloyd's body would later be found. Video shows Hernandez's car going down the gravel road behind a group of industrial buildings.

3:23-3:27: People working the overnight in the industrial park hear gunshots.

3:27: Silver Altima is viewed coming out of gravel road.

3:29: Video at Hernandez's home shows the silver Altima pulling into his driveway.

McCauley states that the distance between where Lloyd's body was found and Hernandez's home is a 2-minute drive.

The crime scene:

• According to McCauley, police found five shell casings – three at Lloyd's feet, two some distance away.

• An autopsy showed two wounds to the chest – one near the left nipple, the other near the right nipple.

• Lloyd did not appear to be robbed, as he still had his wallet, phone and keys.

McCauley explained that Hernandez returned the Altima to a rental car agency, with the driver's-side mirror missing. A worker at rental agency discovered a shell casing under the driver's seat, next to a Bubblicious wrapper. The shell casing and the gum wrapper were tossed into a garbage bin, where police later found them.

Don't worry, I'm sure we're all safe with proxies though.

The man on the left looks like he could have been some type of badass Irish cop on a Dragnet type show.

"Listen here, punk. You see this badge? You're going to the slammer."

I wonder what detail they pulled the guy on the right from. No puny cops for this perp walk.
 
Tebow is a tight end for the Patriots. Watch.

This.

Morons don't see it. I stand by my Tebow 10 TD prediction. If anything, he maybe gets more.

I got no sympathy for Hernandez. The kid had it made, he done went and fucked up his chances for a good life. He had money, a career, women - and he couldn't leave the scum behind in Connecticut.

Take the trash out. Patriots will bounce back stronger than ever.

Tebow has no TE experience at all. You think they're just gonna plug him in there and expect a Tony Gonzalez type season?

He might get a carry or two at the goalline, but outside of that I see zero production from him.
 
He will play the 3rd down back position with the direct snap to him with the option to throw or run. Wake the fuck up people.
 
The New England Patriots are offering anyone with an Aaron Hernandez jersey the opportunity to exchange it for a free jersey of comparable value, the team announced.

The exchange will be offered only during the weekend of July 6-7 at the Patriots Pro Shop.

Earlier this week, Hernandez was charged in the murder of an acquaintance and released by the Patriots.

"We know that children love wearing their Patriots jerseys but may not understand why parents don't want them wearing their Hernandez jerseys anymore," Patriots spokesman Stacey James said in a statement. "We hope this opportunity to exchange those jerseys at the Patriots Pro Shop for another player's jersey will be well received by parents."

The pro shop will be open from 10 a.m.-9 p.m. July 6 and from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. July 7

Bill Belichick can teach us something about business.

Lol and have Brady blocking or lining up at wideout? You're playing 10 on 11 if that's the case.

And if you take Brady out everyone knows what's coming. Tebow might be effective running from a direct snap, but no so much throwing at that will take away some of the surprise element.
