The details are inconsistent, but what we know is that police found a car near a homicide that was linked to Hernandez. He is not considered a suspect, according to reports. Patriots fans at Pats Pulpit are reacting here as more and more details come in.

The Bills play more games than any other team against teams coming off of extra rest. By that, we mean a bye week or a Thursday night game. "Five of the Bills' 16 games will be played against teams that will have extra time to prepare," Buffalo Rumblings writes. "That's one more than the next-highest team, the Atlanta Falcons, who play four such games, while the league's other 30 teams have three or fewer such contests."

What's your best story of meeting a Chargers player? A Bolts From The Blue reader delivers: "My buddy was the quarterback at Uni (before it became Cathedral). I trained with him in the offseason - this becomes important later. Anyway, his dad's company entered him in a celebrity golf tourney at Torrey and he was lucky enough to be paired with Doug Flutie and Drew Brees. Two super nice guys, but unbelievably competitive: they bet $1,000 dollars a hole and asked my buddy's dad to join in. My buddy's dad is a scratch golfer - he accepted. 18 holes later Drew owes him like $12k. Dude pulls out his checkbook like it's no big thing, but my bud's dad says "I can't take your money, but my son is a high school QB and he'd love to meet you." Few weeks later, my buddy gets a call from Drew. "Hey, me and some of the guys were gonna throw the ball around, you want to come? Bring some friends who can catch if you want." That's how I met Drew, LaDanian, Donnie Edwards and Lorenzo Neal. Even kept up with them and trained a bit. In one of those sessions LT told me, "I'm doing speed training, but i think what you're doing is called 'SLOW training." Super nice dudes, so lucky to have gotten that opportunity."
