FOXBOROUGH — That whoosh you heard at Gillette Stadium on Sunday wasn’t the winter wind or frozen fans rushing for the parking lots. It was a regional sigh of relief that tight end Rob Gronkowski made it through the season finale, a 28-0 win over the listless Miami Dolphins, with his left forearm and the Patriots’ Super Bowl dreams intact.
Gronk made a triumphant — albeit limited — return to action. He missed five games after he broke his forearm late in the 59-24 victory over the Colts on Nov. 18. On Sunday, he had two catches for 42 yards, including a 23-yard touchdown.

The Gronkowski quote about being back in the game and getting hit made me smile. Maybe this is another inspirational quote for my desk? Life is kind of like football!
Dude makes up for his lame arm with a sack the size of a zepplin. Rock on monkey king!
