We Still...Believe

Okay....admit it!  In last nights Hawks-Nets game...when late in the 4th quarter the Hawks lead was only 97-95.

You felt...we felt..."Ugghh"

Another "Atlanta Moment"!   Lose this game and you gotta go to Brooklyn to stave off elimination.

But these Hawks...today's Hawks...scored the next 10 of 12 points to win going away...107-97.

A huge sigh of relief.

Murder 1...NFL Style

Aaron Hernandez....former Florida Gator...former New England Patriot...a gifted tight end who just three years ago signed a 4 year $40 million contract...is ...well...

Let's just say  he won't ever see that $40 mill.  He will never see anywhere...but a cell.

Yesterday, a jury of his peers ...found him guilty of murder.  In the 1st degree.  Life in jail...without parole.

 

Aaron Hernandez guilty of first-degree murder, sentenced to life in prison
