Chapter 322: Catching rumors
“Absent from training, private visits to hotels, and having a lot of fun, the Kansas Chiefs’ No. 23 rookie is missing again?”
"Having just won a life-and-death battle, rookie running back Levi can't wait to go to the hotel to relax."
"The league's best rookie this season met with a supermodel in a hotel and was alone for four hours!"
"The battle of life and death is not over yet, but Kansas City's top star can't wait to start partying, causing strong dissatisfaction among his teammates, and the smell of gunpowder in the locker room is about to break out."
"Levi left his teammates behind and went to the hotel alone for an appointment, and what was waiting in the room was...?"
Sure enough, it once again proves an eternal truth——
There are many popular people.
Levi has just left the Marriott Hotel, and all kinds of unrealistic photos and rumors about his back leg have already sparked heated discussions on social networks.
Moreover, each one is more outrageous than the last.
In fact, you don't need to be so careful or smart. Even if you are not Sherlock Holmes, you can find out after just looking at the photo that there is only Levi in the photo, not to mention the model, not even a fly. There is no abnormality at all. The pictures and text are pure nonsense.
However, if there are hot spots and gimmicks, there will be traffic.
What's more, the protagonist of the story is Levi, currently the most discussed and controversial player in the league, easily making social networks climax.
This is the prologue.
The group of reporters who were abandoned by Levi at the entrance of the training base finally showed their professional attitude and immediately found a breakthrough point——
Coca Cola.
After the first incision appeared, the connections and quality of professional journalists played an important role. One by two, they began to select top brand sponsors. The next step was for the Eight Immortals to cross the sea and show their magical powers. It all depends on their ability.
Some brands are tight-lipped and say they are not aware of the fact that the brand is contacting Levi; some brands are half-hidden, saying that they have indeed heard the company mention Levi's name, but it is still in the preliminary discussion stage; some brands are still in the preliminary discussion stage. Fang seized the opportunity to hype up the situation, saying that they were indeed in contact with Li Weifang and hoped to cooperate.
In the blink of an eye, all kinds of gossip on social networks have changed.
All kinds of speculations, all kinds of legends, all kinds of gossip, it's very lively.
Whether the brand sponsorship news is true or false or false, the credibility must be questioned before it is officially announced. However, the people who eat melons are still extremely excited. Every news insists that it is confirmed, as if As if he saw Levi signing the contract with his own eyes, this hot discussion also gave the media a perfect excuse——
"The team's crisis is still not over, but Levi's attention is no longer on the court."
"Making money strong! Levi's personal future is greater than the team's future."
"Every subsequent game of the Kansas City Chiefs will still be a life-or-death battle with no retreat, but Levi can't wait to start maximizing interests."
"Reason for absence from training: Personal business activities."
"Reid's connivance is making Levi a cancer in the locker room."
"Is the performance in beating Oakland a true recovery or a brief comeback? But clearly, Levi has more important personal financial prospects to worry about."
"While the day will come sooner or later when players drop to their knees in front of sponsors waving checks, is Levi's timing right?"
"Levi's family is the only one in power, but the Kansas City Chiefs offense dares to be angry at a rookie? Is this true?" Everything seemed familiar.
As early as the first month of the regular season, when Levi went to Los Angeles to play against the Lightning away from home, the media began to chirp at the rumor that Levi missed training and lost himself in Vanity Fair; and in the last month of the regular season, Kansas The Chiefs are about to face the district rival Los Angeles Chargers at home, and the media is starting to talk about the erosion and poisoning of Vanity Fair.
Things seem to have changed, but they seem to have never changed.
It turns out that life is a circle.
As the media said, the Kansas Chiefs' season crisis has not been resolved. Every next week's game will be a life-and-death battle to determine the playoff spot. They will meet three sworn enemies in the same district one by one:
The Oakland Raiders are over, then the Los Angeles Chargers, then the Miami Dolphins in another division, and finally the Denver Broncos in the season finale.
Last week, the Oakland Raiders and the Kansas City Chiefs, who also had a record of 6 wins and 6 losses, battled to the death. The Kansas Chiefs defeated their rivals in the same division and had a record of 7 wins and 6 losses; the Los Angeles Chargers also achieved victory, with a record of 7 wins and 6 losses and Kansas City. Chiefs stay neck and neck
This week, the Kansas Chiefs will face a decisive battle with their rivals in the same division for the second consecutive week. The winner will continue their playoff hopes, while the loser may fall behind completely.
So, even though the Kansas City Chiefs ended their losing streak with a hearty victory, the flashing red warning lights still kept sounding.
Now, when the media gets the chance, they will naturally bite Levi's tail.
Moreover, it is worth mentioning that since the Kansas Chiefs defeated the Los Angeles Chargers on the road in the third week of the regular season, the latter's season has been in a fog, with quarterback Philip Rivers' competitive state fluctuating significantly and the offensive team performing poorly; Unexpectedly, the team's defensive team stepped forward and carried the Los Angeles Lightning all the way to this day, still retaining hope for the playoffs.
Currently, the Los Angeles Chargers' defensive team ranks third in the league overall, with passing defense ranking first, but ground defense ranking 31st, second to last in the league.
The gap between extremes makes the Los Angeles Lightning's games always ups and downs.
Fortunately, the league is currently holding high the banner of passing offense, and there are few teams left that truly focus on ground attack, which gives the Los Angeles Chargers some breathing space.
This time the Los Angeles Chargers are challenging the Kansas City Chiefs away from home. The odds are 50-50 and both sides have chances. However, whether the Kansas Chiefs' ground attack, which has been completely reborn this season, can establish enough advantages against the Los Angeles Chargers' completely misfired ground defense to bring success to Arrowhead Stadium. Victory, this is an important point to watch.
It is precisely because of this that the controversy focusing on Levi has become more intense.
In such a crucial game and such an important moment, Levi actually ignored the team's situation for personal gain? When Levi's personal business activities conflicted with the team's interests, the rookie star obviously made a wrong choice.
If you don't pay attention, this may become a factor of instability in the Kansas Chiefs locker room.
Suddenly, the media exploded.
Even die-hard Kansas Chiefs fans can't help but start to worry. In the game against the Los Angeles Chargers, Levi has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders!
So, what about reality?
The atmosphere in the locker room was harmonious.
Kelsey shook her head slightly with a look of regret on her face and looked at the social network messages on her phone screen. "Alas, these media are still too young and naive. They should come here and try it themselves, and then they will know whether the rookies have been lazy in training. It all depends on one mouth and it’s all farting.”
"Being crushed by a rookie and committing suicide twice is enough to make him run back and forth once or twice." Houston said unhurriedly.
Hahaha, the locker room burst into laughter.
