So less than an hour after today's Miami Dolphin vs New England Patriots game dolphins offensive lineman Mike Pouncey was served with a grand jury subpoena. The Mass State Police served him as a "material witness" and are focused on multiple transactions between Pouncey and Hernandez.
Should be noted Hernandez and Pouncey were teammates at University of Florida and were roommates during that time.

Meyer won championships with Hernandez and the Pouncey twins. Why on earth would he want to go back in time and rescind the offers? It would take a man of strong moral fiber to want that.
If it is as NBCSports reported and that this is regarding Hernandez having alleged involvement in interstate gun trafficking, then I wonder if this is a federal grand jury subpoena that we're discussing in the case of Pouncey. Since it was served by the state police though, perhaps that is not the case. According to NBC, the Patriots and Pouncey are not sharing anything at this particular moment.
I thought the same thing, I assume that the Fed's would become involved if it can be proven that the guns traveled across state lines, or took place when Hernandez was in Massachusetts and Pouncey in Florida. Also seems like all of this caught Miami GM/Owner off guard and they were scrambling in the locker room.
I loved those episodes of The Wire, too.
URBZZZZZ!!!

That Sunday bible study thing sure was a clusterfuck down there.
Makes sense, after that whole "free Hernandez" hat debacle, Mike's brother Maukice immediately apologized. Mike remained quiet and issued nothing.
Part of me wants Tebow involved just because why the fuck not?
Because he's an outstanding, young man who any father would love to have as a son-in-law.....
I'm just kidding, I laughed at your post.
Would be awesome!
photoshop skills, this would be the place for Tebow as Heisenberg
So you're saying you're NOT suppose to wear hats asking for a killer to be freed prior to trial if you might be connected to the crime?
Who knew?
Alleged killer. Let the trial take its course.
Sometimes the facts are cut and dry. Dude killed the guy.
So...as a Dolphins fan, should I be worried?
Yeah...4 straight losses, much to be worried about. I say this as a Phins fan, myself.
Just imagine our offensive line without Pouncey. My condolences to the Tannehill family.
Multi-tasking. He was probably doing all or at least most of those things at the same time.
You forgot "go to class" and "study". I mean, he was a STUDENT-athlete, right? Right??
Aaron Hernandez does Motrin angelfish before 8 am than most Pierre do in a day.
Sudden death of father at 16, rough family life, Urbz and 7:30 a.m bible studies:
Recruited by Gators assistant coach Steve Addazio, who grew up just outside Bristol, Hernandez visited campus for the 2006 spring game and made his choice.
It was a hard time at home after his dad's death.
"It was a mess with a lot of family issues, fighting and disagreements," he says. "I'm the person who keeps both sides of my family together, and when I wasn't around it was crazy."
Hernandez played in every game his freshman season, starting three, but off the field he was still reeling.
"It was a rough process, and I didn't know what to do for him," Terri says. "He would rebel. It was very, very hard, and he was very, very angry. He wasn't the same kid, the way he spoke to me. The shock of losing his dad, there was so much anger."
Says D.J., who is three years older, "He was just lost."
Meyer stepped in when he realized a good kid was headed down the wrong path. "Urban became his father more or less and the team was his family," Terri says.
Every morning, Hernandez arrived at Meyer's office at 7:30 and read the Bible with his coach.
One day in February 2008 when Hernandez was struggling, Meyer met with him at noon in his office.
"It was a 10-hour meeting. We finished at my house at 10 o'clock. Then it continued the next day," Meyer says. "When your guy, your idol, your soul is taken from you, how do you deal with that? I just think there's a part of his life that was not there. He needed discipline; he needed someone to talk to."
Says Hernandez, "He helped me through a lot of that stuff. I would have horrible days, and he taught me to put things aside and work through it. We have a great relationship even though he wants to kill me half the time."
How quickly one's life can got to hell in a picnic basket.
