I don't know why, maybe just the endless whining, excuse-making, and overall lack of grace we see in sports (and so much of the rest of the culture), this exchange between Thomas and Gronk made me inordinately happy:

Gronk praises Earl Thomas for “real football hit”

Kudos to both of them.

Right? Unlike hits delivered by some Donkeys, I mean, people.
