Chapter 607 Sincere Thanks
“Hey, do you need help?”
There was a voice coming from directly in front, and West subconsciously looked up. Under the dim light of the street lights, he saw an unexpected figure, standing in the night and waving his hand. He was stunned for a moment. There was no solid ground under his feet, and he looked at his hands. The trash cans inside will fly out directly.
Oops!
However, the tragedy was stopped in time——
A figure quickly stepped forward and held the trash can with both hands, helping West regain his focus and control the situation. After all, it was just a false alarm.
West let out a long breath, his heart still beating wildly in his chest. His first reaction was to look at the helpers who offered help to resolve the crisis.
"Thanks. Sorry, I mean, this shouldn't have happened, but thanks for the help. Oh my god, Assistant Clark."
Along with the foul language, West exclaimed.
Levi did not hide his surprise, "I am also going to introduce you. What, do you know each other?"
West shook his head repeatedly, "No, yes, no, no, no, what on earth am I talking about! I mean, I know him, but he shouldn't know me."
"How could we fans not understand the changes in this year's team during the offseason?"
"Ah, no, you need to wait. I'll go in first and ask the boys to stop talking bad about the coaching staff. You know, one of the greatest pleasures for fans is to sit in the bar and point out the situation, as if they are the experts."
A small joke made even Clark laugh out loud.
Then.
West put away his smile now, "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. Charles West, a fool who believes he knows the team better than Coach Reed, welcomes you to Kansas City."
Initially, Clark was still a little nervous, but looking at the straightforward West in front of him, he not only relaxed, but also became faintly excited.
Clark couldn't help but glance at Levi. He now understood why Levi said he often came here to relax, and then turned to look at West, "Ronnie Clark, a...fan."
Clark has no sense of humor. He tried to make a joke to keep up with the atmosphere, but everything from the content to the tone was dry and tasteless. Even Clark himself was a little embarrassed.
West didn't mind, and smiled, "Then you have come to the right place. The chief can always recognize another chief. You should go in. The boys should warmly welcome you. The first cup Charge it to my account..."
After a pause, West leaned forward slightly, with a mysterious look on his face as if he was ready to share a shocking secret, "Because we defeated the Steelers!"
"Oh yeah!"
That face is filled with joy, happiness, and cheerfulness. You can deeply feel the beauty without using words.
Clark was also deeply affected, and finally couldn't help but laugh too.
West put down the trash can, turned around and pushed open the bar door and shouted inside.
"Guys..."
"Guys!"
"Ronnie Clark is here."
Clark:? ? ?
He was just an assistant coach, and he was still a rookie among the assistant coaches. He was worried that he would not be able to fulfill his responsibilities and obligations and would become a burden to Coach Burns and Levi. At this moment, he was enjoying the cheers of the entire bar. And applause?
This...
Obviously, Clark didn't understand what was happening at all. He looked confused, "Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?" and looked at Levi for help in astonishment.
Levi patted Clark on the shoulder and gave him an encouraging look. With a slight push, Clark walked towards the door of the bar in a daze.
The next second——
Ho, ho ho ho!
"Ronnie!"
"Ronnie!"
"Ronnie!" A burst of cheers instantly surrounded Clark. He was like Alice entering the rabbit hole during nap time. He stared at everything in front of him with jaws on his face, and stepped forward slightly hesitantly but uncontrollably.
Then, the tavern door closed again.
West looked at Levi and smiled, "It's a little crazy tonight."
Levi, "A little bit?"
West laughed out loud, "Well, actually, all the boys are crazy."
"Including David. God, you should have seen the look on David's face at the end of the game, I think that deserves to be in the Louvre and we need to document it."
Although Levi did not witness it live, looking at West's expression at this moment, one can imagine that Anderson, who has always played the role of a father, suddenly lost his composure. It is definitely worth remembering, and a smile couldn't help but creep up the corner of his mouth.
Taking a deep breath, West looked at Levi.
"Rookie, have I ever thanked you?"
Without waiting for Levi to answer, West continued.
"It doesn't matter, whether I've said it before or not, I still need to say, thank you, thank you for coming to Kansas City."
The simple and plain words weighed heavily on Levi's chest.
Levi tried to make a joke, "I don't seem to have much choice."
So far, there are not many cases where rookies have refused to sign with the team after being drafted. The most famous one is Eli Manning.
Manning Jr. was the favorite to be the No. 1 pick that year, but he publicly stated that he was unwilling to go to the San Diego Chargers, who held the No. 1 pick, and more than once, he used all his strength to express resistance.
However.
The San Diego Lightning are unhappy. They are actually being disliked and resisted? They chose Manning Jr. regardless, and a historic scene occurred in the draft——
With a stiff expression uglier than crying, Manning took over the No. 1 jersey of the San Diego Chargers and took a photo with the team owner. All the reporters watching the show burst into laughter.
Speculations are swirling around whether Manning Jr. is willing to sign with the San Diego Chargers. If Manning Jr. refuses, it will be the biggest joke in the history of the NFL Draft.
Fortunately, things took a turn for the worse. The New York Giants and San Diego Chargers completed the deal. The New York Giants selected another quarterback, Philip Rivers, and then the two teams completed the deal. Only then did everyone have a happy ending.
"Hahaha." West was amused. "You can always protest like Eli did."
Levi, who knew nothing about football, finally learned some interesting historical facts, especially the farce between Manning Jr. and the New York Giants at the end of last year. The "happy ending" of that year's draft seemed still vivid in his mind.
And, the most ridiculous thing is that the story of the New York Giants and Manning was later reversed.
Manning Jr. did not transfer or retire. After the New York Giants' new coach Pat Shurmur took office, he first traded Geno Smith, and then corrected Manning Jr. through training camp inspections and announced that Manning Jr. Manning will still be the team's starting quarterback next season.
Seeing the "couple" who had broken up, actually reunited and wiped away their tears and looked forward to the future together. This farce also shocked the entire alliance.
West sighed, "I didn't expect that their ending would be like this."
Levi was particularly calm, "This is still not the end. It's hard to say what will happen this year."
West was slightly stunned. After thinking about it carefully, he burst into laughter, "That's right. If someone said a year ago that we would start the new season as the defending champion and defeat Pittsburgh in the opening game, I would have suggested that he go See a psychiatrist."
Laughter, stirring in the chest——
It is precisely because of this that West firmly believes that they should say thank you to Levi. The starting point of all this comes from Levi's arrival.
A rookie who became a hero in Kansas City.
