Off the field, he's unabashedly the cruise director of the NFL.\" --\u003ci\u003eNew York Post\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Rob \"Gronk\" Gronkowski holds nine league-wide records and three Patriots franchise records. His accomplishments include thirty-eight receiving touchdowns in his first three seasons (thirteen more than any other tight end in the NFL) and the 2011 record for most touchdowns made by a tight end, with seventeen receiving and eighteen overall. With a Super Bowl victory under his belt and a nationwide reputation for a personality that's \"comedy gold\" (CBS Sports), he has continued to win the hearts of fans through his fun-loving attitude. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From hamming it up at Super Bowl Media Day, to spicing up interviews with \"Gronk-esque\" dance moves, to cuddling with kittens in the pages of \u003ci\u003eESPN The Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, to christening a used party bus his ride of choice, Gronk's good humor and playful persona make it seem like other players are \"living in black and white, and Gronk is in color\" (CBS Sports). But it's not all fun and games. After multiple surgeries on his forearms, ankle, and back, Gronk tore his ACL and MCL, prematurely ending his 2013 season (but not before scoring four touchdowns and 592 receiving yards). His many injuries and subsequent recoveries made his key play in Super Bowl XLIX--which led to victory and the title of \"Comeback Player of the Year\"--all the sweeter. Gronk takes fans from the field to the locker room to the VIP room to the talk show green room to his parents' kitchen table--a full tour of the world according to Gronk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gallery\/Jeter Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476754802\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/0001\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Rob Gronk Gronkowski, Jason Rosenhaus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44848911122613,"sku":"9781476754802","price":22.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_5ad3e726-8394-48a7-af25-c46506c3b9c5.jpg?v=1732634244","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/its-good-to-be-gronk-9781476754802","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
