OMG I never thought I could hate the Pats anymore than I already did. Cheating, being gifted the last 2 SBs by the idiots on the other sidelines. Nope, not enough. Win at all costs, play dirty, rub it in. If Belichick actually thinks the hit was "BS" he would order the might dbag Gronk to NOT appeal and FINE him himself. and to think I actually felt sorry for Gronk when his knee got shattered vs the Browns in 2013. And he did that to Tre while his team was winning a game by a mile late in the 4th quarter. Yet he is going to appeal? on what grounds?? I'm guessing because the union to which he belongs automatically files on his behalf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So “automatically” must = ignoring any common sense in the matter. How about the Nflpa file an appeal on Tre’s behalf instead of Gronk’s?

I didn't think I could get more fired up about this, but I just watched the video posted on ESPN of the NE* broadcast of the hit. Guy 1: White came down on the sideline, and then Gronkowski landed on top of White and I think Gronk may get called for... Idiot: GOOD! Good for him. You wanna hold him the whole way?!? Guy 1: a personal foul. http://www.espn.com/video/clip?id=21655874 And you wonder why the Pats* are hated? Your player deliberately concussed another player who was laying face down on the ground and your response is "GOOD! Good for him."? off! The morons ignore the blatant push-off by Gronk on his break and whine that a guy who weighs 70# less pushed him. You can't make this **** up!

You can't make this **** up! That's what makes it so ridiculous. Nobody wants to admit that not only did Gronkowski try to kill White he did it because he was outplayed by our rookie.

Make it so, McBeane. They could sign them but you can only dress 45. Who is going to sit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemma Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I'm getting the feeling Gronkowski is not too bright. Dumb as a stump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiltonWaddams Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I don't understand how a guy can admit complete wrongdoing and then file an appeal of a more-than-fair punishment administered for this admitted improper act. The league is broken if he gets away with this. The league is probably broken anyways, but it's another log on the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Looks like he's going to lose the playing time and stat incentives for that $5.5M bonus. If the writers don't vote him 1st team AP All-Pro, he doesn't get it. Hopefully they send him a message by making him 2nd team at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'd bet $1000 that at least 10 other Patriots would go flying at Hughes like he just killed their child. Wouldn't even be surprised if Pats came flying off the bench to enact "justice" in a situation like that. Forgot to mention in my earlier post that I am also disgusted with the cowardly Bills, who just stood around whining to the refs, and didn't go after Gronk, and give him a beat down right then and there. As others have said last night and today, the inaction on the Bills' players to exact immediate retribution was very disappointing.....very pathetic.
