Gronk toying with us again

[dannydyn]

He said "it will be fun"

Not Pats related. Move on, nothing to see here.

 

[aluminum seats]

I think he already explained that when he described being alone in his bed, crying in pain after the Superbowl last year. He wasn't having fun anymore, his body was breaking down and he wasn't passionate about the grind anymore

It was a perfect time for him to move on, albeit not very much for the Pats or us fans, but he doesn't owe us anything

Never said he did. And not even really talking about Gronk, more this thing that sports writers ALWAYS want players to do: “retire on top.” Stupid. The quest to succeed is what drives greatness, not quitting when you’re successful.

Well, it appears as though the “big announcement” is the fact that Gronk is hosting a party during the weekend of the SB down in Miami. At least most of us didn’t fall for his schtick again.

And that announcement needed suspense?? And we thought CTE only affected AB seriously Gronk just go somewhere. Yeah and I hope your show sucks. I never watch those crap shows anyway.

It's what the guy does. Thank you Gronk for your contributions, but your services are no longer needed any more even if you think of coming back next year. We don't want you.

For those thinking that Gronk is coming back :

 

[QuantumMechanic]

When is his PR staff gonna realize this kind of repeated trolling is only going to turn fans off and hurt his brand??

Agreed. You'd think Team Gronk would be a bit smarter about how they draw on the well. It isn't bottomless and hosting a SB Party isn't exactly up there with launching his own beer brand.

 

[SammyBlueCat]

Howie Long asked Gronk if he'd come back to play for Dallas.


Gronk: "You never know."

The New England Patriots still have the rights to his contract.

 

[SammyBlueCat]

FWIW he told Portnoy back in September he's coming back week 14

Rob Gronkowski Says He'll Be Back On The Patriots Week 14 (VIDEO)

Clearly tongue in cheek

 

[SammyBlueCat]

Are you too dense to get the point? Gronk retired specifically because injuries were threatening to make him a cripple later in life, and he'd had uncountable concussions (according to him).

He isn't 'everyone who plays in the NFL'.

Its been old for a while now, its becoming obnoxious at this point.

 

[Ladypatsfan]

I am over it.

 

[slash83]

This guys a tool.

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

I use to love the guy. Then the year he was injured he made the whole SB Parade about him when he should have been in the background allowing the players that actually won the SB have the limelight.

Now he is playing with our emotions to capitalize on money ventures. He could just make business announcements without giving us the feel that he may be coming back when he has no intentions of doing so. He is playing his loyal fans like a fiddle!

So to that I say GO AWAY GRONK AND STAY AWAY

Did Gronk say he will dance, maybe spike a beer can? Or is he saving that for another cliffhanger announcement?

 

[venecol]

Not even on South Beach, lol.

 

[TheAdultintheRoom]

I actually thought this was going to be an unpopular opinion, but it looks like a lot of you actually agree. I'm over the Gronk announcement BS. It's not clever or funny after the 16th time. Just go enjoy your retirement.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Guys making a living outside of being an NFL player. Promotion is part of it so it is what it is.

Time to move on from Gronk the player.
