Yea it was.

Hernandez played football, fact. Hernandez playing in the NFL is the reason why his brain is fucked. Yes and no. For the family, and all these players to chase after the NFL for money because of brain damage is like suing A cup manufacturer because you burned yourself with what was inside.
I'm fairly certain all this brain trauma starts with Pop Warner and going forward in your age group leagues. Play football your entire life, you're gonna have brain damage. Not a hard concept to understand. It's also not ALL the NFL's fault either
I think maybe the head injuries just cultivated his already existing inner demons.
I did think it was interesting they were, it seems like, trying to exonerate a convicted killer and blame it on football.

I would agree. I don't like how the article was spun either if I'm honest. If you're going to excuse his murders with football, better do that for everything drug and domestic violence related issues players have too.
the brain is something we will never really understand or be able to map, but I definitely agree with Butch
I think that the trauma will absolutely exacerbate a pre-existing condition, not necessarily create one.
football attracts a certain type of person and I think that category of person is largely predispositioned towards aggressive/irrational behavior
obviously this is a big generalization from me combining the little bits and pieces I've learned from articles like the one Butch posted
It's not just the NFL's fault though, Aaron Hernandez was on the murder path before he joined the NFL. He fell in the draft for gang like behaviors and associations.

right
its football as a whole, from Pop Warner to the NFL
the NFL is just the beast with the most money, aka biggest target
