I honestly think it's in this dude's best interest to walk away now. Injuries have ravaged this kid for years.

If this was Gronkowski's last game, he went out in style with nine catches for 116 yards and two touchdowns.

The dynamic Patriots pass-catcher has already established himself as one of the best tight ends in NFL history even at a relatively young age. He is a five-time Pro Bowler, four-time All-Pro and two-time Super Bowl champion and even won the 2014 Comeback Player of the Year.

However, Gronkowski has struggled to stay healthy throughout his career. The time the tight end had nine reported surgeries since 2009—his final year at the University of Arizona. Four of those operations were on his forearm, while three were on his back.

He also suffered a concussion in this year's AFC Championship Game victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Congrats on the Eagles Mace! When the Eagles won it gave me hope that someday the Hawks might as well. I have to ask you as a diehard Hawks fan for 32 years...did you ever think the Eagles were going to win the Super Bowl? Just wondering since you are a fan of both. Sometimes I wonder if the Hawks will ever get there...

Just seems hopeless at times.

Anyways, good job in beating the Patriots...cuz well, it’s Boston so..

Oh yea? That sounds like around the last time anyone followed GT :wink:
Oh wait, I forgot they took an L from the Big East in the early 2000s so that was the last last time anyone followed GT :wink: :wink: .

Well, I watched them lose 3 straight NFC Championship games and a Super Bowl. So if you want to talk about serious liver damage imagine being at the cusp for half a decade only to bow out in embarrassing fashion when you thought all momentum was in your favor? Couple THAT with watching hated rivals of all the teams I follow pop up out of nowhere and win rings or extend dynasties. Makes you cherish that victory even more when it happens though! #FlyEaglesFly

It's kind of hilarious but the Eagles made fans of the Giants and Lions a lil wary of their new coaching hires.

And did I hear Collinsworth or Al Michaels say that Patricia would be coaching the Pistons?..

I don’t think our defense can get much worse..

Can we all agree the above is 100% proof that Tyrion is a secret Targaryen and destined to fly a dragon into battle at some point?

I'm taking it as canon at this point.



Spoiler:
Tywin agrees with me!!!

My GIF game is about to take a huuuuge hit:

Google to kill off 'View image' button in search

Google's deal this month with stock-photo agency Getty to end their legal spat carries one very noticeable provision: the "View image" button will be removed from Google Images search results.

A source familiar with the matter confirmed to The Register on Tuesday that the "View image" button will indeed disappear from all of Google's photo search pages from this week onwards as a result of this resolution with Getty. The copyright notice alongside each snap will also be made more obvious.

The deal comes after Getty lodged gripes with regulators in both the US and Europe over Google Images.

I don't even see a 'view image' button. Are they talking about when you click the small image and it shows you a larger one? Now it'll just take you to the website or what?
