I'm going to laugh in disbelief when Aaron gets off. You know some random dude from New England is going to say he's not guilty...

American Justice System at work...

He's on trial for the Odin thing, and then months later he's on trial again for the 2012 double-homicide. It'd take a lot of incompetency for him to walk away from both unscathed and go right back to the NFL.

Aaron Hernandez was a pretty good player, but come on, you have to win at least one Superbowl to get a pass on 3 murders.

Does that mean Marvin Harrison gets a rain check for two more murders, or just one since he hosed up the first time he tried to kill that dude or w/e.

If he doesn't show up at all, he doesn't get paid and can even be fined. If he shows up and just half asses it, the Texans will trade him because then the only option is outright cutting him and getting nothing in return.

Every NFL fan has a personal story about that time they looked up at the TV when the Raiders were on, and went "drat, what a shithole."

quote:

Although four teams have expressed interest in dealing for Andre Johnson, Around The League has maintained that a trade involving the disgruntled wide receiver is highly unlikely.

The Houston Chronicle's John McClain went a step further on Friday, stating flat-out that Johnson will not be traded.

In fact, McClain "guaranteed," via a video posted on the Chronicle's website, that Johnson will be playing for the Texans in Week 1 versus the Redskins.

The Texans realize this is just business, per McClain, and there are no hard feelings toward their franchise icon. But the organization also firmly believes they are better off with Johnson, and they are determined to see him finish his career in a Houston uniform.

From a financial perspective, they don't want to hand over Johnson's $1 million workout bonus or guarantee his 2015 salary for fear of setting a precedent to be used by J.J. Watt's agent in the future.

Unless Johnson legitimately is willing to remove football from his life -- as Carson Palmer did with the Bengals in 2011 -- he lacks any semblance of leverage.

If Clowney lives up to expectations... and they draft a decent franchise quarterback in 2015, the Texans will be up against it in 2020, cap-wise. I think that's the first realistic shot any other team will have at signing Watt.

The Texans still have him for two more years and then can franchise him for the following two and still be paying him below his market value

I don't think it'll come to that, but if I'm JJ's agent I'm letting him know this and telling him he should hold out for a long term deal after the 2014 season
