| Quote: | Kobe Bryant told MacMullan that he's a fan of New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski.
"I'm hoping Gronk will be there. I like him. He seems to perform at a high level every time out. Last time we were in town we talked for a little bit. He was a fun guy.
"Everyone is so worked up about what he did (in Vegas). It's funny. If there were camera phones back in the day, the biggest athletes in the world would have had a lot of explaining to do." |

3.75 Million?!!? Come on, we all know Gronk already paid 3.75 million less to do that, not in front of a camera... |

I don't think its a HUGE deal but it's definitely getting annoying.
Always being in pics and vids half naked with smoke shows, no big deal, he's young, a good lookin guy, and filthy rich, he has every right to have fun as long as its legal.
Drunk and dancing and hopping on his hurt ankle after they lost the superbowl, eh, a bit annoying but whatever, he's young and having fun.
A week after he leaves the game off an injury and right after the Pats lose a devastating game in the AFCCG he's wrestling with his cast still on putting himself at risk. Pretty annoying to me, kinda just shaking my head.
Idk, maybe it's cause I'm comparing him to Hernandez, who is pretty much showing how the "perfect Patriot" would spend the offseason, under the radar, and moving to join with Brady in preparing for next season.
I love Gronk, but am kinda sick of seeing him in the tabloids every freaking day, just hope he tones it down a bit. |

| As long as he recovers fine, no problems here. Just a little sad I can't join him. |

I call BS. We barely hear about anyone else partying at all, regardless of race, and I'm positive Gronk isn't the only 23 year old millionaire who acts like a moron. _________________

I love Gronk. Until he gets into any trouble or it affects him on the field, there really isn't an issue.
I guarantee every team has guys doing way worse stuff than partying. _________________

Yeah but i think we all excuse it because he produces and as long as he produces he can act like an idiot. _________________

He's 23 years old. He is going to party. I have no problem at all with it. People who do have a problem with it need to get over it. He's not breaking any laws. When it comes down to the game of football, the guy is motivated as anyone. If he continues to catch over 10 TD's a year for us, who gives a rat's [inappropriate/removed] if he is out partying with his brothers in the offseason.
Just a meathead who loves to party. _________________
