So... Aaron Hernandez

John 3:16. Reportedly, authorities looking into possibility Hernandez may have taken synthetic marijuana. There have been cases of people taking the stuff reporting suicidal thoughts.

I don't remember that translation of John 3:16

We Catholics are sometimes accused of taking liberties with Bible verses.

Why do you think that, BZ?

Just askin' & all.

That was my original thought KY. Joe said a lot of why, the timing was oddly curious. Apparently Maryland law says his conviction is overturned if he dies before an appeal is heard. If his contract is unvoided and his daughter gets his money, I can see that as motive for hanging himself. If he had any chance of winning his appeal it is very strange timing.

there's not going to be much left after the civil suits are settled.

Only time will tell. I was just speculating.

I've seen that same speculation in other places - this was a way to get his girlfriend and daughter some money. Hard to tell who will be first in line for whatever is left. His lawyer is also making rumblings about looking into his death, he sees more billable hours I'm sure.

Does anyone know how the payment of his bonuses from the Patriots worked out? There were some unpaid amounts that were 'guaranteed', including a deferred part of his signing bonus, and the team was trying to get out of paying them.

This deal is so goofy, it's tough to sort out in your mind.

I'm gonna compromise by forgetting the whole thing.

Apparently there is verbiage in the contract with N.E. that says any legal trouble that makes Aaron unavailable to the team could void portions of his contract.

Like I said it was just speculation. And with the possible motive, who knows what he had going through his head at the time.

The timing is still curious for me.
