New England Patriot's player, Aaron Hernandez, is living behind bars right now. He is accused of murdering three people. By the end of his second season with the Patriots, he signed a five-year contract worth $40 million. Less than a year later, he was charged with first-degree murder. Two hours after his arrest, he was dropped by the New England Patriots. Aaron has also been charged in the slayings of two men. Now, he has pleaded not guilty for the shooting death of Lloyd in early January.
Questions:
1. Do you think he would've learned his lesson after the first time he commited murder?
2. How would you feel if you were the coach of the New England Patriots and you drafted Hernandez?

Again, I would say your summary doesn't explain the topic well enough. Also, be sure to comment more regularly.
I don't know if he learned his lesson. If I was his coach I would be very disappointed in Aaron because he had so much and he blew it.
I also think that he didn't learn his lesson, considering this is his 3rd time committing murder. I think he should suffer some major consequences. I also think this is sad because a lot of little kids look at some of these players and want to be just like them. They're going to look up to them, so I think they should think about things and set a better example. I think their coach did the right thing. I wouldn't want someone playing on my team that murdered people.
Why would he commit murder if he is making bank playing football. If I was the coach I would just drop him till it all clears up.
How could you throw your life away. He was famous had he had his life on a platter and he blew it. Though he may not of agreed with the men he killed he didn't have to worry about them because he was set. He had all he could ask for and he killed three men for nothing. As a coach bringing in a promising player like him and watching him drop to a criminal would be hard to watch considering he was a top player.
He did it because he was stupid and he will never play football again because of it. He will watch his former team in the Super Bowl from behind bars somewhere and he will probably feel terrible about it.
You would think he would learn. After losing like that much money and getting taken away probably from something that was his dream forever, that he would not want to go through that again. You would think he would want to come out and restart. If I were the coach that drafted him I would have no idea how to think about it. Of course at the time you had no idea at the time that he was going to do that. All he could really think and do though is just him go, because you can not have someone like that on the team.
I feel like he didn't learn his lesson even though he should have. I also agree with what Belichick did which was not have anything to do with him. I certainly wouldn't it would bring bad publicity to the team.
He didn't learn his lesson, but honestly it doesn't matter because even after the first time he committed murder, his career was over and he was going to see prison time. It is pretty depressing the number of NFL players who get involved in horrible situations like this because a lot of people look up to them and want to be like them and they just throw away everything they've accomplished. If I was Bill Belichick, I would do exactly what they did and immediately get rid of everything to do with him from our team because you don't want that kind of stuff associated with your team at all.
One would think that he had learned a lesson, but he most likely has enough money to bail himself out so he didn't do the time that he was suppose to do and didnt learn anything from it. I wouldn't want to draft a man who has taken the lives of other.
