I agree with this... assuming Sharia's was not intentional... Gronk actions were with intent to injure.

I think Shaair’s forearm says it was intentional, but was “in the moment” unlike Gronkowki, who couldn’t handle White getting the best of him and lost it after the play ended

I think there's a big difference between a dirty hit during a play, and elbow-dropping a prone player, from behind, with a metal brace, in the back of the player's head after the whistle. I am of the opinion that the league did not take those aggravating circumstances enough into account.

 

And in my opinion it was a one-time dirty hit from a guy who had no history of that, was suspended and apologized and was forgiven by Tre White.   His family have multiple businesses employing Bills fans here in WNY.   They are much more a part of the WNY community than the average TSW ex-Pat or never-was who won't let it go because their inner child was hurt by all the losing to the Patriots.   Comparing that hit to the serial dirty hitting of Al-Shaair really underscores how idiotic it is.  That guy is out to injure someone every week.  I mean, follow the league if you are going to be so opinionated folks.

I felt the same thing but I just dont know what his intent was...

Gronk doesn't have much impulse control. That was a heck of a dirty hit at the time considering too the weight of him dropping on a smaller guy.  Could've really messed him up.

 

Anyone see the Tom Brady roast when Gronk did a shot with the guys and spiked the cocktail glass right at the podium?  I was surprised glass shards didn't fly into someone's eye's.  Maybe it did.   He has no sense.

Not arguing any of that, Straw Man.

I love Gugs, but ancient history.  Moving on.  Both hits were cheap.

 I think line one of my response answers why the league didn't take your lack of perspective into account.

Yes it was 

[Julio Hopkins]

***** Gronk and ***** the NFL for only giving him a one game suspension so that giant POS could come back to play the Steelers for the conference race.

His family employs Bills fans? Oh then all is forgiven!

Great timing on the thread. Can there be a thing as different level of scumbag hits?
 

If so I’m going with Gronkowski’s as 1st degree, Al Shaair as 2nd.

NBA has Flagrant 1 and Flagrant 2 so why not

[Buffalo ill]

I will not forgive gronk for this.  However I'm almost equally upset at soft Bills players for not ending Gronk right then and there.

That's the spirit!   Don't be one of those douchebags who can't forgive the guy 7 years after he apologized and Tre White forgave him.

It's ok, Mr Gronkowski.  Your son will be fine without you white knighting for him on the forums.

Co signed. Gronk dropped the people’s elbow on the back of Tre’s head like 20 seconds after the whistle. There’s no way to misconstrue his intentions and the fact he is celebrated is a joke. Everyone knows he was on the juice too. Who knows what CTE issues Tre White might face bc of that hit. F Gronk. He’s overrated bc he had Brady throwing to him his whole career. He’d be Greg Olsen anywhere else. Antonio Gates, Tony G, and hate to say it, but Kelce are all way better.

Well it was a LITERAL apology and White forgave him.   If you really need that haterade you do you but it makes your sort look weak playing the victim over what was ultimately some no harm BS.   

 

“I just want to apologize to Tre’Davious White.”
