Chapter 160 Gathering of Rookies
Li Wei turned his head and looked quietly at the city scene outside the car window, with a little curiosity and exploration, trying to find some features and individuality in the same ordinary buildings. However, Still failed.
I have heard before that the desolation in the middle of the North American continent is not much different from the ordinary. There is no distinctive planning, no distinctive buildings and no distinctive life. Everything seems quiet and mediocre——
This is also the reason why people are crazy about competitive sports. After all, there are not many entertainment options.
Levi thought Tuscaloosa was ordinary enough, but he didn't expect that Indianapolis in front of him was even better, with no color at all.
Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana.
Located in the midwestern part of the North American continent, Indianapolis is a transportation hub connecting the east and west coasts and major cities in the middle. With developed railways and highways, it is known as the "Crossroads of the United States." It is the fourth largest state capital in the United States and is undoubtedly one of the most prosperous first-tier cities in the Midwest.
However, reality is different.
This is a typical central city with an absolute advantage of loyal Catholic believers. It is conservative and stubborn, introverted and boring, lacks waves, has no spare time and no entertainment activities. People work at sunrise and rest at sunset, which vividly interprets the characteristics of a "big rural area". Rustic and simple.
All the madness and passion in Indianapolis are dedicated to the same team: the NFL's Indianapolis Colts.
Since the Colts chose to settle in Indianapolis in 1984, they have won all the favors of this city; after entering the millennium, they have written brilliantly under the leadership of legendary quarterback Peyton Manning for eight consecutive years. Advancing to the playoffs and reaching the Super Bowl in the 2006 season completely ignited the passion and blood hidden under the calm surface of Indianapolis.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Indianapolis Colts have become the soul and pride of this city. Every game day, the whole city is empty, just like Tuscaloosa.
In 1987, the NFL made an important decision. The rookie training camp, which had previously changed venues every year, officially settled in Indianapolis and became an important annual event in the city that focused the nation's attention.
This year is no exception.
Rookie training camp began on February 15th and lasted four days at Lucas Oil Stadium, the home of the Indianapolis Colts.
After the training camp, the 32 teams will formulate draft strategies based on the abilities of the rookies and the needs of the team, and start preparing for the new season at the draft held from April 27th to April 29th. the first step.
——Levi is finally about to appear.
After the U.S. Championship Game, Levi went into seclusion for training, ignoring what was going on outside the window. Amidst the hustle and bustle of training camps, Levi, as the new Heisman Trophy winner and the MVP of the U.S. Championship Game, quietly Silently, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
However, even though he is no longer in the arena, there are always legends about him in the arena.
He switched from mixed martial arts to rugby, and only came into contact with rugby for just one year. He withstood the pressure and perfectly filled the vacancy left by Derrick Henry. He turned the tide in the U.S. Championship and became the first Asian Heisman Award winner...all, all, All topics are full of magic, and now, the more mysterious, the more curious and the more lively it is.
Pay attention, you can’t stop!
Even teams that have no interest in running backs are picking up Levi’s game videos and scouting reports. After all, anything is possible in the draft, and no one should miss this year’s strongest running back— —
Even... the strongest player?
Until now.
Levi finally ended his retreat and arrived in Indianapolis to prepare for his debut. Thousands of eyes immediately focused on the Lucas Oil players. The rookie training camp, which was originally a highly anticipated event, was even more popular and bustling with people. Crowds of people flocked to the city.
For a whole month, Levi didn't seem to get stronger but became a little thinner. But in fact, professionals could see that Levi's muscles were tighter and his lines were clearer. The training during this period made his whole body look slimmer. His sharp edge became more restrained.
It seems that Levi has been improving his confrontation and explosive power?
Slowly, slow down the car and arrive at the hotel. There is a long queue of vehicles waiting for parking at the door. The parking guys are a little busy, so Levi simply quits the queue and goes around to the parking lot opposite the hotel. At the scene, with a quick glance, I saw the parking space. squeak!
As soon as he braked, Levi looked at the vehicle in front of him, which was lying on the road ahead. He had already entered the parking space, but because of the irregularity of the car body, he came out again and was about to try to park again, but this blocked Levi's way.
In the opposite vehicle, a young man with a fluffy afro showed an embarrassed smile through the car window and waved to Levi sheepishly; Levi was not in a hurry and responded with a smile.
However, he never expected that the afro was completely panicked. He couldn't align himself with the parking line even when he reversed the car into the warehouse. The more he failed, the more nervous he became, and the more nervous he became, the less capable he became. He fell into an endless loop.
In the blink of an eye, he had tried five times and was still in the same place over and over again.
From a long distance away, Levi could see the sweat on the door of the explosive head. His cheeks were puffed out like a puffer fish, and every cell in his body was jumping. Noticing Levi's gaze, he looked up and showed an awkward smile. But when he lowered his head, it was revealed that he was extremely panicked, and his expression seemed like he was about to cry.
Actually, you can’t blame the afro.
Being nervous was one thing, but it didn't help that a Ferrari and a Porsche were parked on either side of the parking space.
Although they are all rookies preparing to participate in the draft, no one knows their draft prospects. Now they are college students with empty pockets. They are inevitably cautious when facing such a luxury sports car; not only do they have to worry about scratches and bruises, but also who this is. The real disaster is if the team boss's car affects his draft prospects.
With this afro, at first glance, he looks like a simple and innocent child.
Levi opened the car window, stuck his head out, and asked in a loud voice.
"Need help?"
With a look of surprise on his face, Afro opened the car door and prepared to get out of the car.
Levi was startled and quickly signaled to pull the handbrake to avoid an unnecessary tragedy. Then he got out of the car and went to help. He completed the parking in three clicks, then returned to his driver's seat and quickly parked the car.
After getting off the car, Levi could see the afro-headed man standing not far away looking like a good baby, waiting, which made Levi smile.
"What, are you going to treat me to dinner?"
It was just a joke, but I didn't expect that the afro nodded seriously, "Dinner, no problem. I heard that the chicken breast here is particularly good."
There was a smile in Levi's eyes, "You come all the way to Indianapolis and just come here to eat chicken breast? This is a choice."
The afro laughed twice, somewhat honestly, "After all, I am preparing to become a professional player. By the way, you are also here to participate in the training camp, right? Me too. Patrick Mahomes."
Today’s fourth update.
