[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are people saying he was violent from a young age? I don't recall anything in the documentary that talks about AH acting violent toward others prior to his father passing away. Were there instances of this?

The documentary also didn't really discuss specific instances when he had suffered from concussions. I thought there would be more evidence of this - it felt thin.

On the gay/bi-sexual thing - I think it was important to shine light on this. I didn't find it salacious at all. [b]Having the other Patriots player speak about his experience as an in-the-closet player was eye-opening.[/b]

One thing I wonder about is [b]if the NFL did have to make a payout to his daughter. [/b]Feels like a loose end there too.[/quote]

Agree.

PP here.  I may have gleaned the acting violent aspect from his brother's book (which I rad right after watching the show).  The tone of the book seemed very honest and "wanting to set the record straight" from Jonathan (formerly DJ).  A specific example was when Jonathan mentioned that AH would "black out" and get violent ie: when they were quite young, AH would chase and beat Jonathan (who was older, but smaller, for the most part) with the video game controller if AH was losing.  AH described it to his brother as having blacked out, and neither understood, except to say that violent behavior ran in the family.  The dad had a criminal past, and perhaps the mom, too (the latter was not expounded upon). I do not think that AH's temper was addressed in the Netflix program, except in the context of drugs (mostly paranoia and reactive behavior) and CTE.  It seemed perhaps the "black outs" were a product of having ben sexually abused several times over AH's young years.  [/quote]
