He actually has never spent a cent of his contract money. Only uses his endorsement money. He could retire right now and be just fine financially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 i would like for the Bills to make the decision for him with a devastating hit this season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Hmm..... Gronk has the mentality of a toddler. He just lost a big game, and says he doesn’t want to play anymore. He’ll be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Gronk has had a lot of pretty serious injuries as well as back issues pretty much his entire career. Maybe he just doesn't want to be practically crippled when he's 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I think I remember hearing that his father is a big influence in steering Gronk's financial decisions. Good for Gronk...smart. Shocked to hear Marshawn Lynch did the same - I would have expected him to be a more thuggish MC Hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an emotional loss, and who knows what was going through his mind when he made those remarks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an emotional loss, and who knows what was going through his mind when he made those remarks. Some reporter brought it up to him that there was a rumor he was considering retirement and he said something like "I don't know how you know that" and went on to say that he was considering it... To me that adds smoke to the fire. Someone knew enough to ask the question and Gronk (to me anyway) seemed surprised by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I’m going to butcher this, but on Golic and Wingo they said he was asked about conversations about his retirement and he responded “how did you hear about that?” Not “what are you talking about?” Interesting. He’s at least talking about it before the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 10 hours ago, Clemfield2622 said: Gronk, like Marshawn Lynch, has reportedly saved every single penny he's earned from his contracts. He lives on his endorsement money. He may look, talk and act like a caveman, but he's not a total fool. I think it's his dad that steered him when it comes to finances.

billieve420 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Gronk can live like those socialites who just go to clubs and parties while still getting paid. So he will be just fine without football when that time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 12 hours ago, Kelly the Dog said: Guys like Patricia and McDaniels get way, way, way too much credit. Belichick runs every bit of that team. The reason they are so good are Belichick, Brady, Belichick's game plans on defense and offense, Belichick's roster wrangling, and Belichick's in game adjustments, then the corrdinators and rest of the players. Let's not forget Belichick's ability to work a camera. All that aside, what you say is absolutely true. Name me one former member of the Patriots* coaching staff who has gone on to prosper and have an illustrious career in the NFL? When you lose the ability to cheat, you can no longer win.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 12 hours ago, Don't stop billievein said: I have friends who are close with him and his family. I know most of his family wants him to retire because of the back problems he’s had. Now that he has had a head injury I’m assuming that could make him reevaluate what he wants. It was his second "Grade I" concussion, wasn't it? 12 hours ago, NoSaint said: I figured that would get comments but dude has to be slightly aware of the fact that he’s breaking down. He’s got to be a 7.2 forty at this point, held together by duct tape and coming off a head injury Jokes (and serious comments) about him being a caveman aside— I could see him being a guy that gets that there’s something beyond football He's a guy that loves to play football, but he also apparently loves to have a good time. He's had a family and a strong financial plan all through his career - one article said he hasn't spent a penny of his earnings, but has invested it all and lives off appearance fees. I think his family is the brains behind him, and may well want him to go out on the top of his game, while he can still walk and talk (kind of) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
