Rob Gronkowski Reveals the Secret to Tinder Success

Rob Gronkowski is a wealth of useful knowledge.

The New England Patriots tight end recently shared a real Gronk gem with Sam Alipour of ESPN The Magazine. Online daters, pay attention: 

"

Patriots star Rob Gronkowski tried Tinder four years ago just for laughs, he says, "and I was matching like crazy!" I tell the "chickmagnet4life" -- seriously, that was his AIM screen name -- I'm not faring as well. It hits him like a bolt of lightning. "You're not killing it?" Gronk says. "You're not doing it right." The tight end offers two fixes: First, make like Mozgov, "Swipe right on everything. Get the ball rolling." Second, make like Dangerfield, "Make them laugh. Just Google 'Tinder pickup lines.'" (Sample: You must be a dictator, cuz I have an uprising.)

"

Pure gold. 

By the way, the article, titled, "When athletes are left to their own digital-dating devices," includes other delightful tidbits, like this from Washington's DeSean Jackson: "It's not like we need help, but social media makes women so accessible."
