quote:
Faulk sat down with CNN’s Susan Candiotti as part of the network’s special program “Downward Spiral: Inside the Case against Aaron Hernandez.” In the interview, Faulk expressed support for Hernandez, Faulk’s former teammate who is currently in prison facing three separate murder charges.

“I want to tell him that he has somebody that’s on his side that’s praying for him,” Faulk said of Hernandez.

Candiotti then pressed Faulk: “Prosecutors are saying that he orchestrated the execution of someone.”

Faulk replied: “You’re not going to make me believe that he’s a monster because you used those type of words.”

Hernandez and Faulk were teammates for just two years, though Faulk was limited by injury to just two weeks of game action in 2010, Hernandez’s rookie year. Faulk spent his entire 13-year career with the Patriots.

“You get questioned all the time, ‘Do you think your boy did it?'” Faulk said. “No, I don’t want him to have done it, no. So if you want me to say no, [then] no, I don’t think he did it. At the same time, anybody can be pushed to do something drastic like that, if they push you to that point.”

guy is fricking delusional

I see him refusing to call out a friend.

"I don't want him to have done it."

“I want to tell him that he has somebody that’s on his side that’s praying for him"

just reading that article makes me not want Faulk and I was a huge fan back in the day

It's cool to say you are praying for him but come on Kevin. Cut it right there.

"At the same time, anybody can be pushed to do something drastic like that, if they push you to that point.”

What does this even mean? Hernandez was pushed by the victim to murder?

Kevin Faulk says his CNN interview about former teammate Aaron Hernandez was misleading

quote:
"(CNN) only gave 45 seconds of my interview which was an hour and a half long. So, the one question they asked was how am I answering questions about Aaron Hernandez? Well, like I told them, one of the questions I was getting asked was, do I believe he could have killed the person? And my immediate response to anybody was the exact same thing I said on CNN. Well if you push anyone to a certain point I think anyone could be considered a killer, you know if you push them to that point," Faulk said Friday (July 18) at the Pro Football Combine Camp at Nicholls State University.

quote:
"And then the next question was when I said I'm praying for him," Faulk said. "Well that whole question was asked if I'm praying for him and if I'm praying for the victims ... the only part they showed was I'm praying for him. But it is what it is and I do think that he needs a lot of prayer because if he did it, he does need prayer and that's just life in general.

quote:
"You know I still love the guy because he's a teammate, I played a few years with this kid, so I know who he is and to see him in this situation, it hurts. I'm a very softhearted person, so to see him in this situation it really hurts. But if he did it, he got to do his time."

And really Lester:

quote:
We get it, you support criminals who also endorse other criminals that commit heinous acts like murder. All because LSU!!!!11 I bet you bleed purple & gold!!!\
