True, he's more popular now than he ever was as a player.

@Trip is the cat who sees yahoo comments section posters flood the comments with cism and say they're only trolls. 
Black folks don't hate Gronk for what he does. We let that niqqa live. White folks seeing an a black athlete acting like Gronk would suddenly worry about what it means to their kids.

The new #12 is bold and black. Browns are back 😎
If you work around a majority of whites, you now what I mean.
Best example of this I can think of...
Is Trayvon Martin vs Zimmerman
During the trial, 'they' demonized a dead 17 year old kid while backhandedly supporting Zimmerman through the end of the process.
Two years later, 'they' don't want to spend a SECOND talking about Zimmerman and his three or four ARRESTS since the trial. You would never know 'they' spent months defending this guy for following, harassing, assaulting and eventually killing a 17 year old kid.
Disgraceful

I disagree. But if we want to be honest black and white folks party differently.

barkley gets a pass because he defames blacks in front of white audiences. They embrace that shyt
And?
Of course fans/media wil turn on any player(regardless of race) who is supposed to be injured, but out partying.
I'm sure that plays into it, but feels like his "pass" started way before that. Ignoring his social commentary Barkley perfectly embodies that frat boy mythos.

AND?
They would embrace anyone who acts like Gronk who produces.. it goes both ways regardless of race
Yes this is being overlooked. The gap between Gronk and the next best tight end is probably the widest for any position in the sport. If he stays healthy he'll probably be the best tight end of all time.

In the landscape of black athletes and their large numbers, "1" given entry changes what about the meaning of this thread?

Biggest producer for the Hawks came into this game bashed over and over again.
I know you badly want to beleive white folks are fair and balanced when it comes to blacks but they are often not.
