Chapter 528: Old Enemies Meet
Competitive sports, professional players, most of them have sharp edges and outstanding personalities. One or two are competitive and will never admit defeat, including Watt and Levi. The difference lies in how to grasp the balance. Scale, and whether you can distinguish between competition and life and control yourself in a professional manner——
Never bring grudges on the field into your personal life.
However, the truth is this, everyone understands it, but it is not so easy to do it.
Right in front of you is DeAndre Hopkins, the Houston Texans wide receiver. He is currently the hottest wide receiver in the league and the leader in receiving touchdowns in the league this season.
Not only does he have speed, but he also has confrontational ability, and his route running ability and tactical execution ability are also very good. He entered the league in 2013 and is growing into a feared receiving weapon.
Last offseason, the Houston Texans and Hopkins signed a five-year, $81 million contract, including $49 million guaranteed and a signing bonus of $7.5 million, making him a One of the highest-paid wide receivers in the league.
And Hopkins did not disappoint the team. He performed at the top level in the 2017 season and proved his worth with practical actions.
It can be said that the spring breeze is proud of the horse's hoof disease.
Clearly, Hopkins wasn't about to look anyone in the eye.
No, as soon as he saw Levi, the top wide receiver rolled his eyes.
"cut."
They had just met and already made their position clear, with no intention of hiding it.
"Hey, guys, look, who is this? Isn't it the Super Bowl MVP? Oh my God, let's just bow down and be happy, and it's not because Roger Goodell might give us some shoes."
Sarcasm, full fire.
The amount of information is a bit large.
Mahomes:? ? ?
What's going on?
Mahomes couldn't understand the hostility exuded by Hopkins at all. If it was because the Houston Texans lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in the regular season, it would be too petty. If it was to fight for Watt, the person involved wouldn't mind. He What are you talking about there? Is it because you have a crush on Watt?
Mahomes thought for a while but came up with no answer. He quietly approached Levi and lowered his voice, "You stole his girlfriend."
"Bingo." Levi actually admitted.
Ahem.
Mahomes choked on his own saliva, his eyes full of surprise and astonishment. He only reacted the next second when he saw the smile in Levi's eyes and let out a long breath.
The correct answer is, college.
Hopkins studied at Clemson and had a sworn feud with the University of Alabama. He was frustrated and depressed after losing to the Crimson Tide four times in the past five years. How do Clemson students feel about it? Maybe you forgot?
reason?
No reason is needed, Hopkins just doesn’t like Levi!
However.
Levi was not an easy man either. He faced Hopkins' attack without changing his expression. Not only did he not panic, he stood still, smiled, straightened his chest slightly, and deliberately raised his chin to use his peripheral vision. gave Hopkins a condescending glance.
"I'm waiting."
Everyone:? ? ?
What are you waiting for?
Hopkins is also a question mark, obviously not keeping up with Levi's rhythm.
Levi shook his head slightly, showing a sullen expression. He still wanted to provoke others with his intelligence.
"Kneel down and worship. Forget it. Kneel down. Even if you bow your hands and worship, it will count."
"I'm still waiting."
Since Hopkins sarcastically said that they should worship Levi or else they might be locked up in a dark room by Gould, Levi agreed openly.
Suddenly, Hopkins was placed in an awkward position.
Uncomfortable.
puff.
Laughter came from the side, and Hopkins turned his head to look over angrily. Then he saw Cameron Jordan's smile, facing Hopkins' gaze with a calm face, and even slightly puffing out his chest. Not shy. Hopkins shut down immediately.
"DeAndre, I told you not to mess with these guys."
Behind him, Watt's figure came.
Just in time, the three brothers JJ, Derek, and TJ appeared. Derek walked towards Robinson, TJ walked towards Levi, and JJ showed his master's style and took control of the overall situation.
"I say this not because they are my guests or my friends, but because they are all difficult to deal with and I am afraid of them."
A humble self-comment brought laughter.
"If I want to teach them a lesson, I will choose to have a good confrontation at the training ground and the competition ground. I think I may have an advantage."
While talking, Watt cracked his fingers, and the crackling sound was like setting off fireworks.
"DeAndre, you should learn from this too."
Hopkins muttered a few words, obviously still a little dissatisfied and complaining, but in the end he did not make a fuss, turned his head away, and refused to exchange eyes with Levi.
Watt didn't mind and looked around.
"Friends, thank you for coming to support me. This offseason is very important to me, very, very important."
"Derek and TJ are willing to come and help because they can't say no; but it's just an honor that you are willing to come."
"Today, we met briefly without training. I arranged a private yacht for the afternoon. We can enjoy the view of the Atlantic Ocean, then go fishing, bask in the sun, and have a little party."
"But be careful with your alcohol intake because tomorrow morning we start training."
"The first week is basic training. Relax and relax. It's very simple. You need to enter the training state from the offseason holiday, and I need to transition from the injury mode to the training mode, and start training with a relaxed and enjoyable attitude. Okay, no need to be too burdened.”
"I heard about Michael Jordan's 'Breakfast Club,' and I thought, hey, why not do a Watt's 'Breakfast Club?'"
Cameron Jordan: Huh?
Why not learn "The Breakfast Club" instead?
Mahomes blinked, "Rookie, what is the 'Breakfast Club'?"
Levi, "A movie, released in 1985, very beautiful."
Mahomes had a "I see" look on his face.
Watt ignored the commotion here, and a smile crept onto his lips.
"Tomorrow morning, training starts at five o'clock on time. The first training lasts two hours and ends at seven o'clock. If the prescribed training cannot be completed before seven o'clock, there will be no breakfast."
After speaking, Watt showed his neat and white teeth, looking particularly happy.
Mahomes looked at Levi: Wait, what you just said is wrong.
…
Sleepy. Shen.
Levi felt like he couldn't open his eyelids now.
Yesterday afternoon, the group of guys drank like crazy for various reasons. Even though Levi tried his best to resist, he still drank until he was in a coma.
So, I slept for a few hours in the bedroom of the private yacht in the afternoon.
I didn't drink at night, but because I slept for too long in the afternoon, my biological clock was completely disrupted by my recent vacation, and I didn't feel sleepy when it was time to go to bed.
Thinking that I would need to get up early to train tomorrow, and the intensity would definitely be very scary, I lay in bed early, counting sheep with my eyes closed, and forced myself to rest.
But I couldn't sleep, and I couldn't sleep until I faintly lost consciousness. It seemed that not even five minutes had passed before my phone started roaring like crazy.
Like Harry Potter's Howler Letter.
