[resdubwhite]

thats some good news on the injury front anyway

 

[pheenix11]

If he starts showing up at Walmart I'm going to be concerned.

CJ Fierdorowicz & Gronk lining up at TE next season please!

The "Pierogi Package"

 

[shmessy]

Oh God, that's my worst nightmare.

Does he have coupons, too much change in his purse, going to hold up the line gabbing with the cashier before remembering he is late for the early bird specials at the local Denny's?????????

 

[shmessy]

What, no amputation? What the hell is this?

Dr. Andews is doing the surgery - - not the Patriots medical staff!

I'm most concerned about the bakery goods in his basket.

 

[varjao]

Yup.

What Cam newton is doing on that picture? is some kind of advertisement?

I'm most concerned about the bakery goods in his basket.

It's all cool....it's at Whole Foods.

If there is a retropsective book or magazine about the 2013 New England Patriots season, I cannot think of a better cover picture than that one right there.

The Winter of Our Discontent.

He'll be back......new and improved.

Something about that photo reminds me of ET: the Extra-Terrestrial.

Probably not a great idea. Ridley may lose grip on the wheelchair and push Gronk into oncoming traffic.

Good on Gronk. Visiting kids who REALLY have gotten a bad break.

Puts things in proper perspective.

Albert Breer ‏@AlbertBreer 1m With Pats today, my Gronk update: Tests that showed torn ACL/MCL, also showed no dislocation. Expected to have surgery in about 2 weeks ... Gronkowski has to wait for swelling to go down before going under the knife. He's been told he should be ready for start of 2014 season.

Good news, I was wondering when we'd hear a surgery date.

Also, James Andrews is doing the surgery.

I figured that James Andrews would do it, considering how involved he was in Gronk's recovery this year. Glad to hear it, too. He's the best. Look at the work he did on RG3. Obviously RG3 still isn't 100%, but the Pats will be smarter about holding Gronk out until he's ready if it comes to that, plus Gronk can better afford to play at <100% speed than RG3 can.

I believe it was also RG3's 2nd ACL tear on the knee. Gronk also suffered his injury several weeks earlier, which inherently gives him more time to recover.

I also think that losing off season workouts are more detrimental to a QB entering his 2nd year than to Gronk.
