Gronkowski Likely Facing Penalty From NFL After Hit On Sunday

[yukon cornelius]

Now I see Maxi-Pad Kellerwoman's piling on Gronk. How I wish Gronk would body-slam that hemorrhoid.

if anyone has twitter (again, i'm old) and has kellerman's feed, please send him the Alonso hit.....not only is that the worst hit in the league this year, one of the worst i've ever seen....THAT was a multi-game suspension that was never handed out

.... Personally I see no slack to be cut here.

Then you must be absolutely furious about Kiko Alonso not being suspended at all, for his vicious concussion-inducing hit on Joe Flacco, right? Personally I saw no slack to be cut there.

Do you see why consistency matters?

Two wrongs don't make a right. I don't care how Alonso was punished. I know that if, say, Kelce did that to Gilmore, I'd want Kelce suspended for a game and rightfully so. (And so would most of the people here trying to shrug off what Gronk did.)

Not even close to the same

Agree... Alonso's hit on Flacco was much worse. Even that Bills troll said so.

Alonso deserved a 1 game suspension. He got off with a fine.

Gronk in no way deserves any more whatsoever than what Alonso SHOULD have gotten.

Alonso deserved a game. Gronk in no way deserves more than that.

Lol what a joke

One game

As expected, now let's see if he appeals 1 game and gets it knocked down to a fine as Prime commented last night.

[bormio]

Expected. The 4 game crowd will be so disappointed.

 

[Wrath Mania]

Expected, largely fair, and means he'll be back for PIT. Not the end of the world.

 

[drewskie]

Its confirmed that Gronk will appeal.

 

[Le Numéro Douze]

Fair enough. He deserved something as he acted really stupid.

As a fan, I hope he appeals and get the suspension reduced to a fine.

 

[captain insano]

hopefully he appeals and its knocked down to a fine. even if he does miss the game. at least we know he will be healthy for the pitt game. miami is so dirty and cheap.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Well i hope we get hogan back this week for Miami. Miami sucks but not easy in Miami despite the fact that cutler sucks.

When will the appeal be heard? If after the Miami game, drop it now and take he game or risk missing the Steelers game.......

 

[long distance]

while dolphins rest could be a blessing . fighting for extra cca. 2.5M obvious priority

Heard the hearing is within 24 hours of the appeal. So if upheld would miss the Fins game.
