Rob Gronkowski scored the 68th receiving touchdown of his career Sunday, giving him a total of 69 touchdowns in his seven years in New England. More than spiking the football and farting during a Lyft ride, it’s the most Gronk moment he’ll ever have in this life.

There’s a word that perfectly encapsulates this occasion. I know there is. If only I could think of what it was ...

Ni—Oh! I’ve got it!

Nifty! That’s the word! Gronk scored his 69th career touchdown. Nifty.
