K-9 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 4 minutes ago, Best Player Available said: Man I don't know if Gronk pursues acting. Working up too a role like Mongo Would take a lot of classwork and actor coaching. I think his future is as a bartender in Williamsville Village. His only hope for bar work is being a bouncer as tending bar requires AT LEAST a modicum of intelligence to work with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I would love to see Gronk in the WWE if he does want to hang it up. Gronk is huge, a legit athlete, and has an affable personality, I think he would be much better at pro-wrestling than he would be at acting.

If they lose him man that is a huge hit. He is impossible to replace. Bill Goldberg retired from football because of injury and then went on to wrestle for many years. Not saying that pro-wrestlers don't take a lot of bad bumps and injuries but the controlled nature of the endeavor makes it a different animal than the NFL. I think if the WWE shelled out some big money to Gronk to actually do the training and be a semi-full time performer (similar to what Ronda Rousey is doing) that Gronk could actually be very good at it and parlay that into a bigger entertainment career overall.

The fact he didn't spend all his money is a smart thing to do, obviously, but it also could have simply been one person telling him to do it, him agreeing, and then just doing it. It doesn't automatically make him smart, which he doesn't seem to be after listening to him a few dozen times. He could be as smart as, let's say, The Jerk.

H2o Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 One thing is for certain, he was smart enough to listen to a financial advisor early on and heed his advice. Life is a lot longer than your sports career, especially in football. To take his $50,000,000 in earnings and put it away is amazing for someone his age. I'm sure the endorsement money and other side money is quite substantial as well though. He does dumb sh*t in the offseason, but who didn't when they were his age? Lord knows I did and I wasn't rich or what you would deem famous. Is he a dick for what he did to Tre? Absolutely, but I don't know him personally to comment otherwise. If he retires then great for him and great for us. If he doesn't then oh well. Either way none of us know him well enough to speak any truth about his mental capacity. Nor do we have any idea what kind of person we would be as a rich as f*** and famous 20 something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a good support system around him and seems to have some sense. Just like he was taught being smart financially I suspect he’s getting reasonable advice about whether 2-3 years of football might be worth 30 years of being happy and functional later Also - in his case I think there’s some gray area between “dumb” and “set for life and going to have fun and doesn’t care what anyone thinks.” Yea he does a lot of ridiculous stuff- and I don’t particularly like him - but I suspect a lot would be dumb for me but no big deal for a multimillionaire 10 minutes ago, H2o said: One thing is for certain, he was smart enough to listen to a financial advisor early on and heed his advice.

He gets that on steroids 250 days a year. With just a small modicum of common sense - he can do whatever makes him happy. Whether or not he truly gets it, I’m not sure.... but if he does, there’s something to be said for being smart enough to go live life in big bold ways while you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen, love him or hate him Gronk takes a beating out there. Defenders routinely go after his knees because he is so big to take down. His style of play & what the Pats ask him to do is very punishing on his body. He already has had several back surgeries, some knee problems & now you can add a concussion onto the list. If he doesn't want to be one of those guys in 20 years appearing on Outside the Lines of "where are they now" & being in a wheelchair, he should get out now. There is nothing left for him to prove. He will go down as the greatest tight end ever & first ballot HOF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns into a log jam and receivers will be competition for him too, with a glut there due to the passing explosion i think his post season records give him a nice bump but he’s probably 2-3 seasons off from slam dunk?
