He moves like a mummy nowadays and it was pretty widely publicized that he was going to be cut if he didn't retire. | ||

I actually ended up re-installing 08 for PC this fall (in large part cause you can create your own plays and I could capture and share with the team I coach). I finally ended up picking up the "new" one when it went on sale for 25€ (timed well with when the season ended for the Lions). EDIT: wait... I totally didn't see that MS =/= EA!! I can REALLY get behind a 2k NFL game!! EDIT2: ESPECIALLY IF IT'S FOR PC! | ||

The only minor question in this case from the beginning was who actively fired the shots - that Hernandez was deeply involved was clear. EDIT: I'm already too late... That blog! For the record my issues with it have nothing to do with race. I think it's weird there were no black jurors but I imagine his lawyers went for the stacking Hispanics route instead? What bothered me is how clueless many of them seemed. Just not the group of people I would trust making a decision on whether I would ever breath free air again. Particularly when they are talking about how they got to murder 1 (automatic life sentence without a chance of parole) without a murder weapon or much for motive. They may have made the right decision (I didn't follow the trial) I just don't get the impression that several of them got to that decision through a strict legal interpretation of their role. As someone who has been falsely arrested (and just got lucky as shit I was with someone who could afford a lawyer) it's terrifying knowing that, if your innocent, but a prosecutor has decided you are guilty, one's decisions are to either plea to something one didn't do, or let a group like those jurors decide ones fate. I'd rather have a Jury of 12 lawyers in most cases. Unless it was a crime normal people don't really think of as a crime, like if I was one of the kids facing life in prison for pot brownies. In such a situation ignorance of the letter of the law would/could be beneficial. Whereas in a murder trial, making sure everyone got to a murder 1 based strictly on the evidence would in most cases be better. | ||

The jury system is there to serve as fact-finders. Some situations even allow the appellate courts to review jury findings as issues of first impression with no deference given. You don't need to be highly educated to listen to evidence and come to a factual conclusion though, and one of the main points of a jury is to represent societal judgment of a guilty defendant. ^ Disclaimer: This is a gross simplification. | ||
