Every Patriots fan has had at least one dream about hanging out with Rob Gronkowski – but Esquire contributor Luke O'Neil actually lived the dream, spending a day with the polarizing tight end. O'Neil joined Toucher & Rich to discuss an article he wrote on Gronk, but says it wasn't always easy to get answers out of him.
“It almost seemed unconscious, like it was so ingrained," O'Neil said when asked about how the Patriots teach their players to give non-answers. "I asked him if he thought he got preferential treatment from Belichick, which some other players might not get because he’s a star, and instantly he said, ‘I better not answer this.'"
Gronkowski might be a party animal, but there’s no doubt he’s willing to keep in line if it's for the good of the football team.
