Maybe I ain't hype. Maybe the fact of the matter is that I've never watched football in my life (the kind you play with your hands and/or your feet) and so I have no appreciation for a legend in the game like Rob Gronkowski. And because of this very reason, I pinged my friend and colleague Greg Bush, who's a big NFL fan, to ask if he disliked the segment at the top of the show as much as I did.

The answer was a resounding yes, and hence, I'm convinced that this certainly wasn't the best way to debut The Gronk. While I do have a passing knowledge of MMA, it's not like I am the resident Ariel Helwani either. And yet, when Ronda Rousey made her WWE debut, it seemed like a big deal because of the way she was presented to the audience.

I daresay that had this segment happened in front of a live crowd, the audience in attendance would not have taken too kindly to the segment, serenading the performers in massive boos.
