Smh at the Devonta haters in this thread

Devonta would have been the #1 receiver on New England every year since 2019 by a mile lol

Granted it helps sharing the field with Hurts and AJ Brown vs Mac Jones and DeVante parker :negative:

$25m a year for Devonta seems like a screaming deal.

Well done by the Eagles.

He has fun with it, people enjoy it, its harmless.... and he doesnt seem to be a racist/misogynist/wife beater/<rear end in a top hat trait> so its pretty whatever and doesnt seem worth complaining about. Let people have their fun.

He doesn't bother me much and he was an absolute legend of a player but I'm just like, who cares enough about Gronk the person to have him throw out first pitches years after he retired?

I mean... Boston does. It's Patriots Day today and also the marathon. The Red Sox always play an early game at home. It's like an official Big Deal, it's probably tied with opening day for "importance" (for lack of a better word)

I was a huge fan of the Jets uniforms around 2014 or so. I really liked that kind of neutral green color.

That being said if the metallic green isn't going away the new unis are definitely better. Especially the home jersey and alternate black jersey.

They also have a new logo

E: couldn't figure out how to post it on my phone

The Jets have never had a bad uniform, like the worst is maybe their early years when the NY JETS logo was mostly white instead of green, but they figured that out quickly and it's been good ever since.

Nah, the most recent design before today's release actively sucked, and I know some fans like them, but I've always hated the old New York Titans throwbacks.

It's not a Jets specific thing. I refuse to believe that there is anyone who enjoys seeing ex patriots every time you turn on literally any NFL broadcast.

There's 2430 MLB games a year just in the regular season, it's not like its a highly restricted honor to throw a first pitch.

The only thing I like about Gronk is a story that I heard probably from someone here about a friend that didn't follow football but saw him in some Dunkin Donuts promotional campaign. Said friend just assumed Dunkin Donuts invented a human being mascot named "Gronk" to hawk their Coolattas.

Being upset that Gronk was on your TV for 30 seconds because he did a joke first pitch at a baseball game is weird. It was funny.


That being said, I have a friend who used to work at a semi-fancy restaurant on Newbury St who said Gronk was an entitled dickhead. So that's my Gronk story
