Mr. Physical Specimen can't stay on the field during the most important time of the year.
Not some joe schmoe is making 50 million dollars from the NE Patriots and is currently under medical supervision by his 50 million dollar employer for his TWICE BROKEN ARM left arm. You know, that same arm that was in the black cast he was wrestling with on stage in Vegas. Schmoe also has a history of back surgery. Only a matter of time before that flares up.
Along with the beers and those "protein shakes" of his perhaps Gronk also needs to stop making a fool of himself and actually become a man and a professional.
Sorry but Gronk's inability to stay on the field has cost this team championship hardware.
I don't find Gronk's personna cute and cuddly at this point. The novelty of Gronk is OVER. He's showing himself to be quite immature and an outright moron who's heading in one of two career directions. Meet the next Kellen Winslow or a future spokesman for Planet Fitness.

IC, you possess the same level of maturity (and intellect??) as Gronk.

BTW, that wasn't a body slam. That move is a DDT. Huge difference between the two. Do yourself (and everyone else) a favor and stop with the tabloid nonsense.

The only evidence that I see mounting is that you are the Gossip queen of this board. You are so quick to damn other people, yet your **** stinks just as much as everyone elses.. If not more...
