Gronkowski's Critics Need to Shut Up

Several people, including former Patriot, Rodney Harrison, are criticizing Rob Gronkowski for celebrating right after the Pats won the Superbowl. Gronk, on the left, was seen dancing shirtless with the band LFMAO.

You can read Rodney Harrison's take here:

I say let the kid blow off steam. When you experience a setback in your professional life, sometimes the best thing to do is to just go out and have some fun. Get nuts for a few minutes.

off their shirts...far too many people do when they shouldn't.

That said, I'm torn...he should have been devestated like I am.

Flabby bastard.

Yes, he should be covered in ashes and wailing for at least 3 months.

but still had enough energy and movement in his ankle to dance after the game. He should have left everything on the field.

Should he have died? He played hard in my opinion with an injury. He's also very young.

they showed him on a couple of occasions, and he acted like he had trouble moving. Yet, couple hours after the game, here's Gronkowski jumping around like he's on a trampoline..If I was a Patriots fan, I'd wonder just what in the hell is the deal? If he was moving like that on the dance floor..why couldn't he on the football field?

Gronk played as well as he was able. I don't have any problem with him having some fun after the game. Whoever filmed him at a private party and made it public is a major douchebag, though.
