Final sad chapter in Aaron Hernandez saga

Thanks for ABC's Wide World of Sports, we know all about "the thrill of victory, and the agony of defeat."

Life, as opposed to sports, is a little harder.

That's what I thought this morning when news broke that former New England Patriots star tight end Aaron Hernandez had been found dead in his prison cell.

Just last week, Hernandez had been acquitted in a double murder. But he was still looking at life in prison after being convicted of a third murder.

This morning he was found in his prison cell, hanging by a sheet. He had apparently blocked the door to the cell.

Aaron Hernandez had it all, one of the top tight ends in the NFL, on maybe its premier, dominant franchise.

But it wasn't enough.

Just incredibly sad.
