Chapter 231 Media Darling
NFL, professional leagues, and professional reporters are well-informed. They have seen the bold, the perverse, and the explosive. They think they have experienced hundreds of battles and will never act casually. Making a fuss over the smallest things.
However, they have never seen such a crazy person.
A rookie, in his first official interview in the professional arena, not only provoked the league's top player, but also provoked all reporters?
This?
Because I was so surprised and so shocked, there was a brief blank in the press conference hall, and there was a roar in my eardrums.
Then.
Finally, a reporter reacted, but for the rare moment he did not fan the flames - after all, the bombshell Levi just dropped was scary enough.
"Excuse me, do you really not know Tom Brady?" Instead, he confirmed again very cowardly.
Levi was not prepared to respond and laughed cheerfully and confidently, "Haha."
Anyway, this is equivalent to a fill-in-the-blank question, leaving everyone to their own imagination.
Netizen: How is that possible? It's a joke, a joke! That rookie is deliberately provoking/easing the atmosphere. How could he not know the number one player in the league?
Social networks are divided into two schools of thought, but whether they think Levi is deliberately provocative or think Levi is easing the atmosphere, almost everyone has reached a consensus:
Levi knows Brady 100%.
In this regard, Levi said that everyone has the freedom of imagination.
After a brief pause, some media finally remembered their responsibilities and immediately added insult to injury, "So, you finally know Tom Brady now, right?"
"I remember this game." Levi shrugged lightly.
Reporter: Haha, you must have remembered this victory, right?
Then, Levi said, "I remember this victory."
Reporter: ...So arrogant! This is still Gillette Stadium. Isn't this guy worried about not being able to leave Fox Castle?
"This was not an easy game, but we never gave up belief and never gave up fighting, not only the offensive team, but also the defensive team."
"Rugby is a team sport. We are always firmly united, believe in each other, trust each other, and fight to the end. Victory is the best reward."
"I think this was a vivid practical lesson, and I finally officially entered the professional arena."
New England Patriots offensive line: Is this connoting us, or is it connoting Brady?
The press conference hall started to rustle and stir——
In the first half of the sentence, they thought Levi was rubbing salt into the wounds at Gillette Stadium; but in the second half of the sentence, Levi actually held high the banner of "team" and the topic returned to the Kansas City Chiefs, which made the reporters There is no way to launch an attack.
Frustrated!
Then, another reporter posed a difficult question, "Levi, this is the first game of your career. How do you evaluate your performance? How many points do you think your performance can score?"
A well-behaved question, but it can test the water temperature. Regardless of whether Levi is humble or arrogant, reporters can find an entry point to make a big fuss.
Unexpectedly, Levi's face was full of sincerity, "Sorry, I don't know much about rugby and have no reference standards, so I can't accurately evaluate it. I still leave the right to evaluate to fans and professionals. I will pray secretly and hope that Don’t give too bad a review, after all I’m just a newbie.”
hehe.
Levi showed his neat white teeth and smiled broadly.
However, when that sunny smile fell in the eyes of reporters, it looked like connotation to them. Is this a complaint about the media's constant hype of "Rookie VS Goat"?
Reporter: Unjust! It's all Roger Goodell's fault!
Who would have thought that the label "rookie" could actually become Levi's counterattack weapon?
First he slapped Gillette Stadium in the face, then he ran against Tom Brady, and now he slaps reporters in the face?
Is this a multi-purpose nunchaku?
Moreover, the key to everything lies in Levi's attitude - cooperation throughout the process.
With a smile on his face, he was calm and cheerful, and his chic and elegant demeanor made him the 007 James Bond. The press conference suddenly turned into a cocktail dinner, which made reporters have to restrain their swords, guns and sticks. Edge.
High, really high.
If anyone thought Levi was Lynch, he would have spent the whole night looking for broken glasses.
Shaban: Look, I issued the media ban for your own good, but you don’t appreciate it. Alas, my enthusiasm has been let down.
It is unbelievable to say that Levi's press conference ended with laughter. The atmosphere was so light and joyful that when the reporters left the press conference room, they were confused and top-heavy, and had no idea what had just happened inside. , feeling slightly tipsy.
At this point, the 2017 NFL season opener has truly come to an end; but the aftermath has just begun, and the ripples are turning into stormy waves.
The quarterback has always been the focus of football games, if not 100%, at least 80% of the time. There are not many exceptions. Logically speaking, in this game between the Kansas Chiefs and the New England Patriots, four points Mamoru deserves to remain in the spotlight——
There are quite a few topics.
Smith completed 28 of 35 passes for 368 yards and three touchdowns.
Brady, 18 of 36 passing, 267 yards, no touchdowns and one fumble.
Such data is really unbelievable. The performance of the two quarterbacks is completely different from expectations. It is completely reversed and determines the outcome of the game.
It is clear at a glance that Brady played a very bad game. Not only was his passing data a mess, but the ball dropped when the counterattack horn was blown at the last moment completely extinguished the New England Patriots' hope of reversal at home. The legendary four-pointer Wei really needs to review after the game.
But Smith is different. He played the most perfect game in the past three seasons, efficient and precise, and perfectly controlled the process of the game. Although he still did not have a long pass weapon, he made reasonable use of his offensive weapons and still allowed the Kansas Chiefs to win. The offense looks very competitive.
As usual, the focus of media discussion tends to focus on Brady and Smith. If the team wins, they will enjoy the spotlight; if the team fails, they must also bear the heavy responsibility of the team. This is the quarterback. situation that the position must face.
However, this time is different——
Levi, became the focus, the unquestionable focus, the unparalleled focus.
Exploring flowers. Movement. Chinese. Rookie.
These keyword tags have caused Levi to withstand countless doubts and attacks in the past four months; now they have also brought Levi incredible praise and popularity.
Especially when Levi single-handedly dominated the fourth quarter and completed his first career debut with a perfect score with an absolutely strong and outstanding performance, this also easily ignited people's enthusiasm. The NFL has a powerful influence that cannot be matched. Levi's body completely exploded.
From the New York Times to the Los Angeles Times, from ESPN to social networks, all eyes are focused on Levi.
Among them, one topic spread like wildfire.
"Everyone says that the No. 1 pick and the No. 2 pick will have a chance to win. Now that the No. 2 pick has taken the lead, then..."
