A day ago, The New York Times put a post on their Twitter handle about Baby Gronk, reflecting he is a young boy who plays football very well and his dad says, “He’s a real athlete, not a normal kid. He has been trained and programmed since he was 6 years old.” In response to this, JJ Watt, a legendary ex-NFL player, expressed his disagreement with it.

In his reply, Watt disagreed pushing young children to specialize in one sport at such a young age and undergo intense training. He stated, “I’ve always said that kids should play multiple sports and be allowed to be kids. While I don’t oppose advanced leagues or better competition, no child should be solely focused on one sport all year and no child should be training like a professional athlete until at least high school. After all, they’re just kids.” Who is Baby Gronk? The phenomenon behind the headlines.
