00:00:04
there's Brady thr the wide open Hernandez and the rookie takes it to the Baltimore 35 Aaron Hernandez what a find
00:00:13
he's proving to be you get changed by Bill bellich way and you get changed by the Patriot Way and now that I'm a
00:00:19
patriot I have to start living like one and and making the right decisions for them Hernandez arrested cut from his
00:00:26
team charged with murder this gentleman either by himself or with two other people basically cold blooded in a cold
00:00:34
blooded fashion killed a person Chris and it's a big gner by Hernandez for about 19 right you think it's just going
00:00:42
to be an inside R second and 10 Here Comes The Blitz picked up Hernandez 25 20 down to the
00:00:50
[Music] 16 there's a question Skip and I'll turn to you um did the Patriots make a huge
00:00:58
mistake by Drafting and signing Aaron Hernandez signed him 5 years $40 million commitment Stephen A I'm going to say
00:01:06
they did not make a huge mistake I'm going to say in their shoes I would have taken the same gamble on Aaron Hernandez
00:01:14
Stephen A and as you know I've been a patriot supporter on this show but for all the talk about the Patriot Way and
00:01:22
the first class New England Patriot organization the exemplary organization in pro football blah blah blah I want I
00:01:29
want you to know that if you look hard enough the Patriots have been the Raiders East for the last six or eight
00:01:36
years because bill bellich has taken risk after risk after risk on players with let me say character or baggage
00:01:45
issues Cory Dylan Randy Moss Albert hanesworth Chad oo Zino a to leave I could go on and on so they were able to
00:01:54
steal an Aaron Hernandez in the fourth round a player with first round talent because he did flunk a drug test before
00:02:03
that draft did the Patriots through their security and their reconnaissance did they know of his gang affiliation in
00:02:11
high school here in Bristol Connecticut I'm pretty sure that they did did they work through an Urban Meyer a coach that
00:02:17
bich is very close to when Urban was the co head coach at Florida I'm sure they did I think they knew that there was
00:02:24
high risk here but then what happened Aaron Hernandez was exemplary for a long long time as a patriot I'm
00:02:33
talking about in the football context Aaron Hernandez showed up on time he failed according to the Boston Globe
00:02:40
quoting the Patriots no drug tests failed no drug tests he worked hard he played hard he played very well and he
00:02:49
was a great teammate by all accounts so after that after he'd proven that much I
00:02:54
would have taken the plunge and given him his 5-year contract to me this is the classic case and I'm going to take a
00:03:00
plunge here myself this is what I call a sociopath this is a man who is sou less
00:03:08
this is the classic case of the serial killer that lived down the block and all the neighbors say he seemed like such a
00:03:15
nice guy because I think the Patriots had no idea this was going on behind the scenes should their security people have
00:03:23
kept closer tabs should they have smelled trouble maybe but I think that Aaron Hernandez got away with Crime
00:03:32
After Crime After Crime and I'm leaping to that assumption because the Patriots leap to that assumption right out of the
00:03:38
box they cut him immediately because they heard all the mountain of circumstantial evidence against Aaron
00:03:45
Hernandez so I'm leaping to the conclusion he's just a bad guy just again soulless is the best description
00:03:54
sociopath and cannot be trusted and was probably involved in other shooting as and this will start to come out as it
00:04:01
goes to trial so to me I would have been duped by this I would have closed my eyes in the Gladiator sport of football
00:04:09
and plunged with a 5-year commitment because football-wise he had been nothing but
00:04:15
exemplary charging defendant Aaron Hernandez with murder what say you madam for person is the defendant not guilty
00:04:23
guilty of murder in the first degree or guilty of murder in the second degree of motor in the first degree
00:04:33
