TUESDAY'S BROADCAST HIGHLIGHTS:MLB: Tampa Bay at Boston, 7:10 p.m. (NESN)
AROUND THE WEB:
-- Retired Patriot Rob Gronkowski just bought property in another AFC East territory.
Gronkowski has purchased a $1.7 million condo in Miami and it comes with five bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths and three parking spaces.
The retired tight end recently sold his place in Boston and it now looks like that was in favor of this slightly warmer location.
He bought the condo from retired Norwegian soccer player John Carew, who shares representation with Gronkowski.
The condo boasts high ceilings, a pool, fitness center and spa.
-- FSU football's Twitter account tweeted out a countdown to the season on Monday and something about it was a little off.
In the now-deleted tweet, the account posted a picture of wide receiver Tamorrion Terry, who wears No. 15, along with Doak Campbell Stadium with a 4 next to him.

And people were confused.

Some things kind of make you raise your eyebrow, make you question yourself sometimes. But then there's some things you see and sometimes it's that the pickup you need. It might be a bad day, you look at this and you start laughing." -- Marcus Smart, on Weird Celtics Twitter
