FOXBOROUGH, Mass., Feb. 1 (UPI) -- Former New England Patriots tight end – turned murderer Aaron Hernandez still has love for quarterback Tom Brady, and also a lot of remaining aggression.

In a prison letter obtained by TMZ Sports, Hernandez tells his pen pal that she needs to commit suicide, while simultaneously speaking of his adoration for former teammates.

"Tie a cinderblock to your ankles and jump in a deep body of water," Hernandez writes in the letter. "Buy the most powerful firecracker in the world that's possible to buy, tie it to your face with duct tape, light it and wait for your head to explode."

Hernandez goes on to explain how he watches the Patriots games from his cell at Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in the Dec. 10 letter.

"I have a TV in my cell! And yes I still root for my squad and still love all the ones I loved," Hernandez writes.

"The closest I was with was probably Brady and whom I love to death and always will and only hope the best for them. But was cool with Julez, Branch (I [expletive] with and got mad love for) and 'the BEST TE ever to walk on a football field' Gronk!"
