keeps saying that Trayvon was a football player when in fact he had last played at age 13 in a community rec league with the neighborhood boys at his local park.

Zimmerman's team publicized that photo of Trayvon at age 13, in his Hollister Community Rec football shirt, to make the jury pool believe that Trayvon was an athletically fit big black football player (you're supposed to think NFL bruiser...) Did you just hear O'Mara push that sick shit to the jury in closing?

If that photo was used to advantage by the prosecution...well that's what happens when Zimmy's attorney's, family and internet minions try to push false info...they got push back with the very info they used to try and poison the well.

Don't like it? Well live with it...Trayvon never got to.
