A hypothetical question here: do you think Hernandez's situation could have been better if he played for a team far away from his home & friends in Connecticut?

Yep, seems to me like the shooting while he was at Florida was HIGHLY questionable. The Florida staff should have a lot to answer for in covering that up. Of course they should protect their player, but when it comes to something as severe as attempted murder, they should have let the justice process run its course. Intervention there could have spared the lives of innocent people down the road.

Though he didn't allegedly kill anyone until he was at the Patriots. And maybe if he wasn't running with his old crew, mostly ex-cons from CT, it could've turned out better. Doubtful, but possible.
