Would be funny if you actually used the injury he suffered which was a sprained knee.

Better luck next time.

Imagine Tom Brady without the weapons surrounding him.

He'd be in the same predicament as Aaron Rodgers.

I remember when Drew Bledsoe played with a collapsed lung... Dude was one tough hombre...

Now ESPN just reported at halftime of MNF that Gronk suffered a bone bruise, which would explain much of the writhing in pain, since a bone bruise is just shy of a bone break.

Bone bruise was my original prediction since when you watch the replay he gets hit on the knee while his foot is still off the ground, which makes much more sense than a sprain or tear.

I cut my wrists as I read the title. Glad to find out it was just a hoax. Now I'm on my way to the ER with a roll of Bounty.

Nothin better than a bounty tourniquet!

Given Gronk's high pain threshold, and the way he was writhing in agony, I'm prrrretty sure I hope to never experience a bone bruise on my kneecap, firsthand

Will be interesting to see if the next game he plays, if he is wearing his kneepads.

Yeah Gronk is a bitch that may be the stupid quote of the day. CONGRATS

You're usually able to see reality a little clearer than this.

It was a bruise, and he flopped around for about 10 seconds like a toddler who just got their first owie.

I was as surprised as anybody to see his bitch reaction.

And I really am glad he's okay. I'm not a NE fan, but I don't like seeing anybody get a bad injury.

Ask some NE fans on here, and they'll tell you from personal experience that a bruise hurts more than a torn tendon.

The fact that we now know, assuming the reports are accurate, that it was bone bruise explains the writhing in pain reaction.

Depends on the degree of the bone bruise, 3 levels from what I was just reading, and the particular tendon. I've had torn tendons that had little or no pain involved, and I've also had torn tendons that made me want to amputate the limb.

I haven't seen a reaction as over the top as Gronk's in a sporting event since the last soccer game I saw last week.

I'm willing to put money on the fact he is probably more of a man than the likes of yourself.

It's a shame that Gronk doesn't have the luxury of playing with a good quarterback. One that doesn't leave his receivers hanging out to dry.

Not even funny. Not at all. no.

Whether Flacco is more of a "man" than Gronkowski is certainly debatable

But Gronk is the better player. By far.

I will admit when I saw Gronk get him and scream when he got hit I thought for sure he broke something, only for it to be a minor injury... Not saying it didn't hurt
