My favorite Rob Gronkowski moment from this past season had nothing to do with a Gronk spike, Yo Soy Fiesta, or inverted numerals of passion.
It wasn’t either of his ultra-timely, clutch grabs in the AFC Championship game or the Super Bowl, nor the unparalleled blocking he delivered as part of the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots’ pivotal running attack.
It was instead a snippet as to why Gronkowski is one of the two most entertaining athletes to ever grace New England, a pedestal he shares only with Pedro Martinez for all the same, and very different reasons.
