@Raquinotj has all of his lowest common denominators stock piled to big up Gronk.

The point is...."how the media would act if Rob were black"....is NOT an attack on Gronk.

I don't get why you're focused making Gronk out to be be anything but what he is. Everyone else sees that if he is who he is as a black man, it would be a problem by the media who find problems with something as small as tats.

While I agree with that its obvious there is a major hypocrisy in the treatment of black vs white athletes...I think OP used a bad example with Gronk.


As others said, he's basically ur typical white, goofball jock...his black equivalent is somebody like Donovan McNabb or Dwight Howard. And the white media has no problems with those dudes...in fact they love them (c00nery).

Naw, if a black dude who was as good as Gronk had a rep for being a wild style party boy and doing all kind of crazy shyt he would have a rep as a player with off the field issues. I promise you Gronk won't be looked at in that light as a lot of the white posters in this thread are proving. He's just having fun out there = awww he's just your typical frat boy, no big deal. But the fact that the White Frat boy lifestyle which promotes hazing, underrage drinking, etc is looked at as just some cool shyt is in itself a whole nother topic which is hypocritical.

I can name you over 10 plus black athletes that ie seen out partying black out drunk and have never been labelled as someone with off the field issues. You think Gronk's the only athlete partying like that?

Who's Gronks counterpart?

Gastineau had Gronks partying traits but was also a selfish player and got drilled by the media.

Trip...I know you want all of us negroes to be delusional about this, but we've lived long enough in our skin to see the type of freedom displayed by Gronk can only be given to white athletes.

You just don't want to believe it. Nothing will change your mind. Us niqqas know that perception and being an individual full of candor and going by the beat of his own drum like Gronk is typically met by negativity by the media and many white folks if that person is black.

unless you start naming names im going to consider it delusional

Gronk goes out and parties....black athletes do the same. As long as you have a driver and arent getting arrested no one gives a shyt.

You know how many black athletes Ive seen out shyt faced enjoying themselves? No one cares.

Gronks a good looking dude with an out going personality thats why he gets attention.

If he starts getting arrested then we can compare biases.

Unless I start naming names or you hear it from another white person, we're just some overly sensitive and delusional niqqas niqqin again I guess.

It's not a dumb argument.

Blacks doing the same thing is always viewed more negatively. You actually honk things are viewed one and the same. Sit...we don't even get penalized the same.

Where is he getting a pass? what should the media say about how gronk lives his life? is he being an arrogant rich white boy? is he beeing an a$$hole to other people? is he acting like a thug? is he calling out his team mates? Making Excuses why he under performed in the SB? get your smart ass coments and stats outta here, you tell me whats wrong with that video that other black athlete would be crucified for... The Media got on him BIG time for partying after the SB and the team got on him this sumer for all the stuff he was doing....


Rodney Harrison calls Rob Gronkowski out for dancing after the Super Bowl | Shutdown Corner - Yahoo! Sports

It isn't latched to him throughout his playing career. If he were black, that shyt would be the fine print of every article written about him.

That shyt isn't even brought up anymore. He gets to live and be who he is. I fukks with him. Other players deserve that treatment too.
