Chapter 994 The Disease of Discourse

Goodell knew that Levi was a smart man, and he knew it clearly from beginning to end.

But it wasn’t until today that Goodell truly felt Levi’s excellence.

Not only did he express his position smoothly and fight for more rights for the players; his words were neither humble nor overbearing, and were inadvertently mixed with humor, whether it was rhyming with "luck" or making complaints about hockey, keeping the atmosphere relaxed.

To be honest, although Goodell dislikes Levi's attitude very much, he is not angry.

There was even a smile on his lips.

This is the power of Levi.

Goodell is still mature and sophisticated, and did not panic even when Levi counterattacked without warning, "So, what are you expecting?"

"Haha." Levi smiled.

Li Wei did not take advantage of the situation to make the request, but took a step back just right.

"Remember, I am a rookie and my understanding of the league is very limited. I think this matter should be left to the players union and professionals for discussion."

"Action, we need to see action from the league .”

Goodell also laughed.

Sure enough, Li Wei was really smart and did not take on everything in a big way, because he knew that things were not that simple.

Goodell asked again, "What about you, do you have any ideas?"

At this time, Levi did not continue to decline, "First, the league's follow-up and monitoring. This is competitive sports. None of us can avoid injuries, and no one can prevent them before they happen. We also cannot ask the league to continue to modify the rules. Protect the players, after all, there is only one quarterback."
"Oh, I forgot, Andrew is also a quarterback, so I guess changing the rules will not work."

Haha.

Goodell chuckled.

Here, the same goes for Vicky.

"But at least, we can pay all-round attention after the injury occurs, follow up on the player's recovery and mental health, and collect data."

"I believe that these data are very important in sports medicine. It also has research value, and there should be university hospitals willing to follow up. "

Li Wei understands that when the matter is dug to a certain extent, it is not that simple.

It is precisely because of this that the levers that players can pull with their personal power are ultimately limited. In the end, it is still necessary to push the alliance to join forces.

So, what can players do?

Making a voice, constantly making a voice, and letting yourself be heard and seen is the only way they can fight for their rights.

At this time, the role of opinion leaders becomes prominent.

"Second, after retirement, the league needs to be aware of the far-reaching impact of injuries, not just concussions, but also many injuries that may affect the players' subsequent lives."

"Being a player After retiring, they may become homeless and die silently in the garbage dump without anyone knowing. No one wants to see such a situation."

"But at least, the league can provide players with life after retirement. A protective net, I believe, will give the current players more confidence.”

"Perhaps, Andrew's willingness to stay and continue fighting will be stronger, changing the inner balance at the crossroads of retiring or staying."

Goodell gently raised his chin and pondered for a moment——

Without affirmation or denial, he could not simply respond.

But Goodell also knew that this matter could not end simply.

Levi chuckled, "I know that the eyes of the whole world are on the game. After retirement, no one will care anymore. We are just a group of people lying on a pile of cash in the midst of alcohol and pain. No one cares about the garbage that rots and dies, but at the very least, the Alliance shouldn't stand idly by."

"Haha." Goodell couldn't hold it back after all. Those jokes, complaints, and ridicules were all too real.

My mood suddenly became clear.

Goodell, "You just said you knew nothing about the alliance?" Levi shrugged lightly, "Okay, I know a little bit."

Goodell smiled again.

Then, the conversation changed, "Rookie, I hope you will support Andrew. I know you have always felt for Eric and Justin's injuries. I am not surprised that you would choose to side with Andrew. ”

"But, I need you to tell the media this. I need someone to come forward and let people know that Andrew's situation is very regrettable and regrettable, but we unconditionally support his choice."

Levi did not continue to refuse. reasons.

The two chatted on the phone for a while before Goodell hung up.

Levi turned to look at Vicky, "Today's training is over, I may need to be interviewed."

Vicky breathed out lightly, "No problem, I will arrange it. .”

Looking at Levi who was deep in thought, Vicki knew that Levi was considering, "Just say what you think and support Andrew."

"We are the same. Trust me, Indianapolis Colts No matter how angry or frustrated they are, they will still bless Andrew."

"Goodell wants you to come forward. In the final analysis, he hopes to shift the focus and focus the fire on Andrew to relieve the pressure on the alliance."

"The last thing he wants right now is for people to use Andrew as an excuse to attack the Alliance."

Levi, "But that's what I'll do."

Vicki shook his head, "No, rookie, you will not publicly condemn the league, you will support Andrew."

"This is one thing, but in front of the media, it is divided into two things. "

" By supporting Andrew, we can secretly put pressure on the league and temporarily let the league take a breather from the whirlpool of public opinion. Then the players union and the media will be responsible for subsequent supervision of the league and implement truly substantive and effective measures. "

The roots are intricate and the interests are intertwined.

It is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Levi raised his hands and said, "I have told you before that I am an outsider."

The gesture of complaining made Vicky laugh heartily.

Veach has increasingly confirmed that renewing the contract with Levi is undoubtedly the most important move for the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason.

Now Levi plays the role of a leader not only in the team locker room, but also in the league.

Thanks to last season's regular season MVP's history-making sensation, Levi has become a brand new face of the NFL. Levi's words not only have a deterrent effect on the league, but also have a crucial impact on other fields. .

Step by step, Levi is gaining the authority to speak and the ability to have equal dialogue with the team and the league.

Moreover, this is just the beginning. With Levi's unique advantages, he may surpass Brady and Manning to open up a new world.

The Kansas Chiefs retained Levi and completely tied their image with Levi, which is of great significance to the team's market development and expansion.

They are now targeting not just the Asian market, but the global market.

Thanks to the existence of Levi, the Kansas Chiefs can have bigger goals.

If Mahomes is added to the mix, Veach believes the future of the Kansas City Chiefs will be bright for the next ten years, and the next focus will be on Mahomes.

That day, the Kansas City Chiefs training base was still busy -

The number of people was significantly reduced, and the focus had shifted to Indianapolis; but there were obviously more reporters based in Kansas City than in the previous two years. .

Originally, the reporters just blocked the place out of habit and had no hope; but they never expected that Levi, who had stayed away from the spotlight throughout the preseason, would actually stop and accept an interview.

Reporter:? ? ?
