Okay, that's the only name that stood out for me. I'm sure there are other DJs, but I took note of 3LAU when I saw him on this cruise lineup a week ago because he's the same DJ who had Gronk tweeting onstage at Ultra Music Festival last year. They must have some sort of friendship.

Right? But since he's such a highly conditioned athlete just a little dancing shouldnt have him so lathered up. Why would he be so sweaty then? Was it hot in there or something?

So its in a tie for last with every cruise ever?
There are some pretty bad ass cruises if you know what to look for. I'm not talking about your daddy's cruise. I'm partial to Holy Ship!

I have a friend who just got back from the Gronk cruise. Although, she's besties with the Gronk clan - went to the SuperBowl with them - so she has a good reason to be there.

Yea, I've got one cynical experience to fall back on. I'm pretty sure its falls below the Gronk boat. Plus I'm lean toward claustrophobic if I had to pick one phobia.

And then there's this :
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/02/23/gronks-booze-cruise-becomes-issue-in-romo-lawsuit/

Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski’s recent cruise has drawn plenty of attention. It’s also caught the eye of Tony Romo’s National Fantasy Football Convention.

PFT has obtained a copy of the second amended petition filed Monday in a Texas court, and it specifically mentions Gronkowski’s floating party on the high seas. Paragraph 47 states as follows:

“NFL player Rob Gronkowski hosted a party cruise from Miami to the Bahamas on February 19-22, 2016. The four-day party took place on Norwegian Cruise Line, where Gronkowski’s fans and attendees can take full advantage of Norweigan’s famed ‘Casinos at Sea.’ Photos from the booze-cruise show fans gambling at the on-board casino. The NFL specifically knew about the party cruise and its ties to gambling for more than seven months leading up to the event; yet the NFL took no action to either discipline Rob Gronkowski or prevent the event from taking place.”

Bastards had to drag Gronk in to it. Earlier today ESPN was running a piece saying the NFl would be investigating Gronks cruise, but now SI and others are refuting

Young guy in my office went on it. Had a blast. Said they were genuine as hell, pretty good access to all of them, though Gronk himself was a little less available. First time I've heard a description of a game of flip cup in an engineering office.

There's little doubt that Gronk can have a match at Wrestlemania if he really wants one, right?

Really?

Because he's a columnist at the local paper that covers the team. I know he sucks as much as anyone but we link to Shaughnessy so deleting a Volin link is pretty chickenshit.

Here's a random link to the same NEWS story about exercising his option and that he may not be happy with his pay. It's something worth discussing.

Seriously, if we're not allowed to link to reports by Boston Globe beat writers, then what can we use as links? The Globe ain't the National Enquirer.

The story is relevant; Gronk's option was picked up. Gronk then tweet'ed about it. This is a Gronk thread. It's news if Gronk is perhaps peeved by seeing other TE's pass him. I doubt it's a big deal, but it does seem a relevant discussion topic. But deleting links to Volin-authored stories is a case of over moderation.

Give it a rest. Credibility is a premium on this site.

Volin was trolling for clicks in the offseason, plain and simple. Gronk tweeted a joke about the option pick up (including a bunch of emojis in the tweet) and then Volin and that other story popped up. Volin has a reputation for this crap (and nothing close to the longevity or relevancy of CHB) and it is not worth links to his poop.

Discussion is fine, that is why I removed only the link and not the post. Let's link to credible stories and not shit throwers and grudge holders.

Volin=Borges.

This article is pretty late to the (Gronk's) party (Ship), but I think it's a pretty great read.

I spot a handful of 87 and 12 jerseys, but mostly I see people for whom a Gronk cruise seems wildly inappropriate: toddlers, the elderly, couples in love. I walk up to two senior ladies and genially ask if they are “ready to Gronk?” I’m met with a friendly but uncomprehending look. “What’s a Gronk?” she asks back.
On Friday night, Charlie and I attend a standup comedy set by Saturday Night Live alum Finesse Mitchell. Rob and the rest of the Gronks are sitting front row. Chris is shirtless. Soon, Gordy will be too, flexing for the very sparse crowd. Somebody demands that Gordie Jr. and Chris arm-wrestle. Mitchell rewires his act to make fun of the family’s penchant for aggressive toplessness. It’s all in good, brainless fun until Mitchell is handed a pink alcoholic beverage by a tippler in the audience. He clearly doesn’t want to drink it. Chris yells, “Pretend it’s a 40!”—as in, a 40-ounce bottle of malt liquor. Oof. Winces. “What’s that supposed to mean?” Mitchell asks, raising an eyebrow, before coolly spinning it into a joke. “Black people ain’t drink 40s in years.”
My saving grace is, of all people, Chris Gronkowski, who was not included on his brother’s lagoon swim, and seems to be dealing with some anxieties of his own. I ask him what he does for a living.

Chris: “I own my own business. I work in Dallas. I work at home with my wife.”

Me: “What’s your business?”

Chris: “We do personalized engravings.”

Me: “Oh, word! That’s an interesting business.”

Chris: “Yeah, it’s weird. I played in the NFL four years since she started it. I was like, ‘Hell no! Never doing that! I’m a fucking beast—I’m not doing some wedding shit.’ Then I came back and I was like, ‘Aw, sweet.’”

My girlfriend worked with Hailey in LA a couple weeks ago and she said she was the best looking girl she's ever seen in her life. And she hates blondes.

Really killed Beckham Junior and Sherman the last couple years. Madden Curse jumped the shark years ago.
