Aaron Hernandez documentary on Netflix

[Markle]

I wasn’t impressed by Hernandez. A big, dumb, violent, jock. His type is more common than you realize.

He was an extremely talented and awesome player.

What else would a big, talented, football player be at the level he competed? Big, extremely focused, passionate, strong, jock be but violent? I don't wonder why there are incidents of domestic abuse among professional athletes but why there isn't more. They enjoy hitting and getting hit. That's something that's not always possible to click on and click off like a light switch. See O.J. Simpson and countless others. They must be extremely interesting in psychatric studies.

Like Junior Seau, Aaron Hernandez was found to also suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a degenerative disease typically caused by multiple hits to the head.

He was a fucking window licker...it takes 10 seconds listening to his phone conversations to discover that he was just an evil version of Lennie from 'Of Mice and Men'.
A quick examination of his Wonderlic reveals just how stupid he was...17

Big...dumb..evil...dead jock.

Good fucking riddance.

Seek help! That much hate and vitriol about someone who is dead and you never knew is terrible for your health. Either that or grow-up!

We have no way of knowing how CTE impacted his impulse control

 

[rightwinger]

They said his suicide may have been his way to get his conviction overturned and free up his millions for his family

I’m 40 minutes in. So far it’s really good. I would recommend watching it.

Pure crap cause they are blaming cte. Of course they are. They admitted they studied his brain and compared it to no other brain.

It's a good documentary until we realize the agenda and that is blame his condition on the sport of football.

Forget about all of the drugs he admitted to taking. Could not have been that.

Roger Staubach retired many years ago due to concussions. He isn't barking at the moon or murdering people. Steve Young retired due to concussions. He isn't drooling when he smiles or murdering people.

The globalist left wing agenda and movement is using the Chinese marxist revolution as the model to destroy western capitalism. Attacking the four olds is the way they put it.

That is why the media attacks football, cause football is virtually all American. Other sports like hockey and boxing and even soccer are prone to head injury. Yet the espn types and media hardly bring them up. Why? Cause those sports are worldly. Not exclusively American like football. No, the CFL doesn't really count.

That is what the documentary on Aaron Hernandez pretty much concluded.

I think they pointed to several factors that may have contributed.

The death of his father
Hidden Homosexuality
The celebrity of a star athlete
CTE

Right

Hidden homosexuality is an attack on the American conservatism.

Cte is an attack on the sport.

What we know is the documentary did it's best to obfuscate attention away from his responsibility and that is the point.

It is a known fact that Aaron Hernandez was a user of K2, which is synthetic marijuana. It is well documented that it is very dangerous.




Again getting away from his personal responsibility and his willfull actions.

At the end these "documentaries" conclude that essentially American capitalism is to blame. That is the bottom line message and like Michael Moore "documentaries" that elevate socialism and attacks the free market it is propaganda. Has all of the textures of a documentary but it a biased piece with an agenda.

Period

When they blame cte, they are attacking the sport. That then leads to American and the WHITE OWNERS. That is what they directing our attention towards and away from aaron hernandez and his willful actions.

Hence the reason not much is brought up about his willful K2 use and the well documented side effects from that drug.

Then his closet homosexuality which draws the public attention and blame towards society's views on the poor abuse of homosexuals by societal norms established by OLD judeo Christian values.

Anything and everything to make us feel sympathy towards the poor victim aaron hernandez of OLD American values and traditions.

CTE is a serious result of playing football
That is undeniable

They never said his actions and suicide were the result of a single factor

 

[Markle]

Pure crap cause they are blaming cte. Of course they are. They admitted they studied his brain and compared it to no other brain.

Renders you entire post worthless.

When you go to the doctor, they x-ray you, then do a biopsy, and tell you that you have lung cancer. Do they compare it to another lung?

I watched the documentary. Nowhere did I see that they only blamed CTE. To pretend that CTE had no effect on his brain is just silly. Nowhere in the documentary did I see them say that the drugs had nothing to do with his violence.

 

[Markle]

Roger Staubach retired many years ago due to concussions. He isn't barking at the moon or murdering people. Steve Young retired due to concussions. He isn't drooling when he smiles or murdering people.

Does everyone who smokes heavily get lung cancer? Does everyone who chewed tobacco get mouth or throat cancer? Of course not.

Does Roger Staubach or Steve Young have CTE? We don't know because they're not DEAD. It is tragic, and I pray for a way to diagnose this disease years earlier, I'm sure you do too.

There are also great, legendary, NFL players who were diagnosed with CTE who were not violent. I've not read a lot about two of them, Ken Stabler and Frank Gifford, so I don't know about their lives behind the scenes.

Symptoms
There are no specific symptoms that have been clearly linked to CTE. Some of the possible signs and symptoms of CTE can occur in many other conditions, but in the few people with proven CTE, symptoms have included:

• Difficulty thinking (cognitive impairment)
• Impulsive behavior
• Depression or apathy
• Short-term memory loss
• Difficulty planning and carrying out tasks (executive function)
• Emotional instability
• Substance misuse
• Suicidal thoughts or behavior

My guess is that one of my heroes, Terry Bradshaw has the disease. He is a former NFL quarterback who won four Superbowls through 14 seasons in the NFL. Like Ken Stabler and Frank Gifford, they played before the position became "hallowed ground".

I don't understand why you attempt to trivialize the disease.

Right, I wonder why Gordie Howe's brain was never studied after he died. NHL didn't even have helmets for their goalies in the 70s and that is when Howe played. He played into his 50s. He played what, 30 years in the NHL and no curiosity? Nothing.

Explain why there is nearly zero fascination with that?

Not much made about this study from a few years ago involving girls, soccer, and concussions.

Op-ed: How one flawed study and irresponsible reporting launched a wave of CTE hysteria

Then we took a closer look at the study that led to the Times story — apparently something few journalists had bothered to do. When we dug into the methodology, we were floored. The study was so badly flawed that it was nearly worthless. But that’s not what had been reported in practically every major media outlet in the world. Thanks to the barrage of sensationalist coverage, the “110 out of 111 brains” story had turned into a wildfire, and we were standing around with a couple of garden hoses, telling everybody to calm down.

That’s why we wrote our new book, “Brainwashed: The Bad Science Behind CTE and the Plot to Destroy Football” (Amplify, Oct. 23, 2018), and it’s why we’ve written this op-ed. We believe that when people know what we know, they’ll start asking tougher, smarter questions, and the “football causes CTE” connection will be revealed as the pseudoscience that it is.

Sure, that’s a provocative statement. How can we back it up? Let’s start with this: the study that produced the 110 out of 111 brains finding had no control group. Good research design requires a control group against which findings can be compared. In this case, the control group could have been brains from 100 athletes from sports other than football, brains from 100 men who had never played contact sports – any cohort that would have allowed the researchers to determine whether men of a certain age who hadn’t played in the NFL also showed signs of CTE. For some reason, this study didn’t have that.

Let me know when espn does any reporting on that fact or when they bring up cte in boxing, hockey or the other WORLDLY sports.

Let me know when hollywood does a movie about the cte problems in those other sports.

Yeah.....

Don' Do de Crime if ya can't do de time.

 

[rightwinger]

CTE is a major concern in sports. Parents have to wonder if some sports are worth the risk

Used to be just boxers were punch drunk
Now it is found in football, hockey, baseball,soccer, horse racing and auto racing

Used to be a concussion was something you shook off and got back in the game. Now, it can ruin your life

Yeah.....

The NHL had very few head injuries when they had no helmets. In the 1960's a goalie named Terry Sawchuck was hit in the head with a puck and died. Goalies slowly started to wear the face protection helmet. in the 1970's players that skated started to wear them and they were then mandated with a grandfather clause. Head injuries went up. Football players love to use the helmet to hit other players. Also. Does steroids have any affect? Even before they became mainstreamed players were using them. You have a hero in Bradshaw, but there are Steelers he played with who are deceased.
