Even in Defeat, Hernandez and Spikes Leave Their Mark in the Super Bowl

Found February 05, 2012 on gatorzone.com:
PLAYERS: Al Michaels,  Aaron Hernandez,  Rob Gronkowski
TEAMS: New England Patriots

At the beginning of the Super Bowl broadcast, NBC announcer Al Michaels referred to former Gator All-American Aaron Hernandez as "the other tight end.'' He was correct in the sense that Hernandez was the other tight end making a lot the plays in Super Bowl XLVI. The New England Patriots tight end, who has played second fiddle to fellow Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski all season, grabbed the spotlight in leading his team with eight receptions for 67 yards and one touchdown.

Quiet scene in the Patriots locker room as the book is closed on the season

By Tom Layman All the inside of the Patriots locker room was missing on Monday was tumbleweeds drifting through the bowels of Gillette Stadium. In other words, it was a ghost town.
