Aaron Hernandez’s brother, Dennis, throws brick at ESPN HQ

Who amongst us hasn’t needed to whip a brick at an ESPN constructing, be it the headquarters in Bristol, Conn., or one in every of its few now-shuttered ESPN Zones? I do know if I walked by the window the place Get Up is shot in New York, I’d decide up the heaviest piece of refuse I might discover and heave it at Mike Greenberg’s face. That’s why I’m on the facet of Dennis “D.J.” Hernandez, Aaron Hernandez’s brother, who was lately arrested after he allegedly threw a brick at ESPN’s headquarters.

D.J., 36, was introduced in Thursday after he allegedly took an Uber to the Bristol compound and threw a plastic bag containing a brick and a be aware on workplace grounds. I actually, actually, actually need to know what his driver considered the entire thing. I imply, what do you say when your fare will get out of the automotive and tells you to maintain the engine working?

The automotive was turned away on the safety gate, per a TMZ report, and Hernandez apparently simply flung the package deal onto ESPN property. He was charged with second-degree breach of the peace, a misdemeanor, on March 23.

Nonetheless, should you’re like me, you need to know what the be aware mentioned, so let me share what was allegedly scribbled on it.

“To all media retailers,

“It’s about time you all realeyes [sic] the have an effect on media has on all members of the family. Because you’re a world huge chief perhaps you possibly can lead how media and messages are delivered brick by brick. Clear it up!

“Yours really, Dennis J. Hernandez.”

Grammatical errors apart, it’s troublesome to not really feel type of dangerous for D.J. We all know his brother’s story all too properly, and it’s clearly nonetheless gnawing at him. Whereas nobody does, or definitely ought to, have empathy for Aaron, I can’t think about the ache of a member of the family falling from grace in such a tragic, heinous, and public method.

D.J. is now banned from ESPN’s premises (clearly) and may very well be arrested for trespassing if he returns (no duh). I don’t know if Hernandez has any regrets, however my remorse from that is that the bagged brick didn’t discover Chris Berman’s windshield.
