Because of Rob Gronkowski’s hamstring, fantasy football owners who drafted him have had to shop for a new tight end.
Although the grocery store isn’t the place to shop for fantasy football roster reinforcements, some owners have actually seen Gronkowski at the market and given him flak for his one-catch season so far.
Gronk on angry fantasy owners: “I can’t even go to the grocery store without getting yelled at.” Message to them? “It’s real football.”

As far as real football goes, Gronkowski said he hopes he’s closer to 100 percent Sunday when the Patriots visit the Browns.
Fantasy football has become so prevalent that gone are the days when a fan would see an NFL player in public and say “Oh my God, it’s (in this case) Rob Gronkowski.”
Instead, it’s what have you done for my fantasy team lately?
What is this world coming to?
