Gronk's Cheap Shot

[NEPatsfan]

Small fine, nothing else

This is the same league that gave Crabtree two games for getting his necklace ripped off his neck for the 2nd time, while AJ Green got nothing for putting Ramsey in a chokehold and punching him

That's why I say 1 game for what Gronk did, along with a hefty fine, but with that said, who the fuq knows with this commish, he can't get anything straight and is always all over the map with punishment.

 

[flyingelvis]

My guess is he gets a heavy fine but no suspension. But is now on a short leash. Next time, he gets a suspension.

With that said, I think a one game suspension is warranted.

If gronk is indeed suspended for one or even two games the steelers fans who think it will mak a difference are out to lunch. I don't think having or not having him has made much difference at all in the pats' trips to recent SBs and CERTAINLY hasn't made any difference in them clubbing the steelers like baby seals.

Now i wouldn't make any guarantee that the pats do actually beat the steelers. Even in light of recent events the pats are still a little vulnerable this year. But if it happens it won't have anything at all to do with having or not having gronk.

6'5" 265 complaining about being pushed around by a small CB.

How about quit being a bitch.

You dumb ass, he made the INT by shoving off of Gronk and it should have been called. Not excusing his cheap shot but he wasn't complaining about being pushed around.

False

“He was trying to push me a little bit . . . I just don’t understand why there wasn’t a flag. A couple times in the game. They are calling me for the craziest, craziest stuff ever and it’s just like, crazy. I mean, like what am I supposed to do? And then they don’t call that, I mean. It was just frustration and that’s what happened.”

getting pushed around by a guy 6 inches shorter and 50 lbs lighter = being a bitch

 

[jarntt]

9 pages? Not reading. I Assume everyone unanimously says he deserves to be suspended? What a blatant cheap shot. I thought it was really dicky by him. was too bad. as much shit as he takes I really like Gronk. Guy is a total beast when his steroid related ailments don't keep him off the field and one of the best personalities in the game.

Pushed off the ball during the play dipshit. Did you see the play? I could shove an NFL player off his route and I'm 205. I too don't understand why there wasn't a flag. That game, regarding Gronk was lopsided on the calls.

"you're right" would have saved you some keystrokes

The same thing would have saved you searching for and posting this:

He wasn't complaining about being manhandled as you implied.

you said "manhandled". I said "pushed around"

Read the whole quote and quit nitpicking and playing the semantics game trying to prove yourself right. You aren't.

He is being a whiny bitch.

 

[ArlingtonCowboys100]

Why not suspeND him for 6 games? There is at least proof that gronk did something wrong

 

[tducey]

No excuse, whatsoever, for what Gronk did. Should get at least a 1 or 2 game suspension.

He was complaining like a little girl. That can't be argued.

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

Man, that really seemed out of character though he described his frustration at the non call on the play. He def deserves a game off for that.

Holy Moly, he smacked him good , imagine how bad that would a hurt if he didn't have a helmet on... Dam he put some torque behind that.... Think he get's suspended ?

He's 6'6" and 270.

 

[black francis]

He's 6'6" and 270.

Dammit

Before I changed it, he was 6'7" 280

 

[Rex Racer]

Hardly "a wash"

He smacked his head on the ground pretty hard when he came down with the ball and I think there's a good chance that he got his bell rung before Gronk delivered "The People's Elbow" (for you wrestling fans ) to him. Check the replay, White was laying face down for several seconds before Gronk's inner WWE reared it's ugly head.
