Zitat des Tages von Rob Gronkowski:
I just really just try to get better as a player every week, just focusing on the team we have to play this week, and just trying to do whatever is best for the team that week.
My brother's got two degrees. He got one for me.
Just like any other game we're taking on we've got to prepare, prepare hard, mentally, physically. We've been practicing hard.
Keep doing what you have to do to help the team out.
These guys are warriors, my teammates.
The importance of lifting weights is it kind of makes me who I am.
Being with the family, running downstairs and opening presents, it was always fun with my brothers.
You can't do it all. You get many requests all the time, but I still have to focus on football, still have to live my life a little bit. But there are definitely times during the week when you want to take time out.
Wherever I go - like, I go to elementary schools, I go to middle schools - wherever it is, if it's in Florida, if it's up in New England, I just feel like wherever I am, the kids always go crazy whenever they see me.
When you get off five or six months, and you're not competing as an athlete, you want to get back out on the field.
We're all about trying to create ideas to help get businesses to grow and listening to businesses to help them out.
You want to be the best at work in order to go out and celebrate.
Everyone wants to see collisions, so I'm ready to give some.
Definitely inspired to keep on grinding, keep on going, keep on doing what we do every single year: Win games and put up numbers.
In sports, a team is surrounded with people with different backgrounds, with different races, and with different religions. In order to win, everybody comes together. I feels like that's what the U.S.A. represents. Everyone just has to come together in order to win.
I feel like when I do some dance moves during the week or at the house, I'm quicker on my feet. I can react quicker just from dancing.
Fans think that we're, like, football 24/7. We're all about life after football, too.
In the off season, you work out for two hours a day, and then you got all this other time off. I like doing other stuff. Football obviously isn't going to last a lifetime either, so it's always cool to get in front of a camera, do commercials, and do endorsements for products that you love.
Everyone always helped me out growing up, and everyone now supports me Sunday. So whenever there's a chance to give back, to the community, to the less fortunate kids so they have the opportunity to gain the most potential they can in their life to be success, it's always good to do.
My softer side? I mean, I like to snuggle.
It's always good to get back out on the field.
There's no such thing as putting extra effort in on one day than the other. Every single day is a lot of effort, usually maximum effort every day.
You have to learn the playbook inside and out. You have to learn code words for each play. You have to learn defenses.
I never thought, growing up, I'd be a TV host.
You want to hit full strides going into the first game and maintain it.
You want to be in shape going into camp and be ready to go.
In high school, I was scared to dance.
To this day, I still haven't touched one dime of my signing bonus or NFL contract money. I live off my marketing money and haven't blown it on any big-money expensive cars, expensive jewelry, or tattoos and still wear my favorite pair of jeans from high school.
We go out to practice every single day and we have fun out there, but at the same time, we're getting work done. We're going hard. If it's reps for the scout team, we're giving them good reps. If we're getting reps for the first team as a tight end group as a whole, we try and go out there and put our best out there as a group effort.
I actually played hockey my whole life, all the way up until ninth grade.
Playing football and being a tight end scoring points, it's awesome to see so many members throughout the United States join to play fantasy football, to expand the sport, to make the game more interesting while you're watching.
No one makes better scrambled eggs than me.
You always want to be on top of the playbook. You always want to be refreshed with the plays, make sure you're on the same page with everyone else.
People misunderstand who I truly am. Truly who I am. If I go somewhere, people just think I'm a party boy 24/7.
Wherever we roll, it didn't really matter, chicks would come to me no matter what. Even before anything. But a lot of the time when it doesn't happen, you have more fun anyway, because you can hang out with your boys.
Jason Statham is one of my favorites. I've watched basically every single one of his action movies, and they're all creative.
