Ex-porn star says Gronkowski's poor play was because he was 'thinking of me'

Rob Gronkowski may be having more fun than anyone in the NFL these days — and has the photos to prove it.  Ever since he was video-taped dancing shirtless following the New England Patriots loss to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl, Gronk's life has been a non-stop headline in the gossip pages.

Now Britney Maclin, the ex-adult film star, who caused controversy last year when he posed shirtless — as usual — with her during a Patriots' bye week, has resurfaced and is taking the rap for the tight end's poor play last Sunday in a loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

A scantily-clad Maclin posted a photo to her Twitter account early Wednesday morning of her and Gronkowski in a series of Gronk-related tweets.

"I pic of gronk of i [sic] that no one has ever seen lol — naughty," Maclin posted early this morning.

The blond party girl took the blame (credit?) for Gronkowski's dropped touchdown passes in the Patriots' 20-18 loss to the Cardinals.

"Gronk told me he dropped those balls bc he was thinking of me!  Gotta get back in his life," Maclin tweeted with a smile emoticon.

However a subsequent tweet indicated that Maclin may have been the victim of a prank: "OMG! I'm partying & these Boston took my phone so they could post those pics, [expletive deleted] This is gonna be drama."

Gronkowski's off-the-field antics have earned him a reprimand from the Patriots before.

The tight end owned up to his questionable play as his own fault.  "I got that penalty at the end holding that guy" he said.  "You can't have things like that happen."
