Some of us have taken a hiatus from the NFL because of the sheer idiocy as of late. It was hard to ignore the latest Sunday afternoon football shenanigans. And if you were watching the Patriots/Bills game, you most certainly saw this:
That was New England Patriots’, Rob Gronkowski, doing a little more than his typical “Gronk Stomp”. Gronkowski jumped on Bills cornerback Tre’Davious White after White intercepted Tom Brady and fell out of bounds. White subsequently entered concussion protocol. Gronk since apologized for the incident:
“First of all, I want to apologize to No. 27. I’m not in the business of that. It was a lot of frustration. I was just really frustrated in that moment, and it just happened naturally through emotions and frustration. I just want to apologize to Tre’Davious White. I don’t really believe in the type of shots like that, but just through the frustration process, the game of football, emotions — it’s just what happened.”-Rob Grokowski
Pats coach, Bill Belichick, was not happy with the hit, and let Bills coach Sean McDermott know his thoughts:
“It was bull$#it”-Bill Bellichick
Was Gronk’s hit dirty? Of course it was. Was it illegal and unprofessional? Absolutely. Was it racist? Some people tend to think so:
If a black player on the Cowboys did this (or publicly partied like Gronk) he’d get suspended long term. Let’s see what Park Ave does… https://t.co/AGHuEmu7Kh

Racist Gronk targets helpless Tre’Davious White all because he is black. Gronk should be charged with a hate crime. There will be no justice for Tre’Davious though because he’s a slave in white America’s eyes https://t.co/KgtfebXMP7

I concluded that Gronk is racist from that play.

Gronk is racist as hell for that.

Gronkowski will come under serious review by the NFL over the next 24 hours to determine if he’ll be eligible for the Patriots’ Week 14 game against the Miami Dolphins. Gronkowski is not a a first-time offender when it comes to on-field discipline to include a fight that broke out towards the end of Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks and unnecessary roughness against Indianapolis Colts cornerback, Sergio Brown. Rob Gronkowski clearly was not thinking and his poor sportsmanship is indeed unacceptable but was it blatantly racist? Depends on who you ask. As if the NFL needed any more racial flames than those that they have already fanned. Stay tuned.
Scott says: These idiots think every white man is racist, and every action taken by them is racist.. do you think they’d be singing the same tune if the races were reversed? not for a second. They cry racist because that’s what they are…
That being said, that was a terrible hit by Gronk, and I do hope they throw the book at him. Crap like this is just one more reason to not watch the National Felons League…
JMSA says: Good post.
Jenny Jay says: What was good about it? What proof is there that he’s racist? Show me concrete evidence that he targeted someone because of their race. There is none. The guy he hit wasn’t white, so it was automatically racist? Get out of here with that tired crap!
Jenny Jay says: Typical fake news. Your first, well-liked tweet was about the discrepancy between the punishment of a white vs. non-white player. Your other sources are a couple barely noticed tweets that you are slipping in to make it appear as though Gronk being racist is a trending thing. It isn’t. A few snowflakes such as yourself are looking for something to fan the racist divide in this country. So is every black player that targets white players automatically racist? No. It’s a brutal game. His hit was wrong. But not racist.
Scott says: Jenny, I’m gonna guess you’re new here, If i may be so bold as to speak for Lisa, she was pointing out that while Gronk is a POS, these claims of racisim depend on your point of view.. as noted above, my point of view is that the only racists in this discussion are he ones claiming that Gronk is a racist.. I have no doubt he would have done the same if the other player had been white… There are quite a few racists in the National Felons League, but most if not all of them are a bit darker than Gronk.. YMMV
