Chapter 710 Stormy Storm


Chapter 710: Storm
The storm is slowly brewing.

The most absurd and ridiculous thing is that the Foster incident and the Hunter incident, less than a month apart, have continuously grabbed public attention.

On the front foot, the media and netizens are still strongly condemning the Washington Redskins for being so hungry that they look ugly. They are holding their breath in their chests and are unable to spit it out.

On the back foot, TMZ dropped a bombshell, revealing the inaction of the Kansas City Chiefs and the league in the Hunter incident, and the anger was instantly ignited.

Bustling and bustling.

TMZ's report swept through the entire social network like a prairie fire, detonating energy in a mighty manner, and the situation spread out of control.

Layers of haze hang over Kansas City, making people panic.

This long-dormant small town has been away from the public eye for nearly half a century. The blue-collar workers living here have been forgotten, ignored and ignored. No one has noticed this group of people who are diligent and down-to-earth and work hard to live a life. Hidden Breathing in an unknown corner.

Yet, overnight, they were thrust into the spotlight.

From Levi and Mahomes to Super Bowl champions to offseason turmoil, this time being caught up in the storm in a less glamorous way, giving Kansas City residents a taste of another side of Vanity Fair.

Cruel, dark, bloody, cold.

No one cares about the residents of Kansas City, who easily equates the city with rough accomplices just because of one Hunter.

Attack, overwhelming.

Before they even had time to react, Kansas City was already drowning in an overwhelming wave of abuse and curses, wave after wave.

Can't breathe.

That pressure, invisible but present, seeped into the city pervasively. There was an apocalyptic atmosphere in different offices and streets on Wednesday morning, and even the thought of celebrating victory had disappeared.

Kansas City is like an island.

Confused. Puzzled. anger. upset.

anxiety. irritable. helpless. disappointment.

The complicated emotions were raging in my chest, but I couldn't find an outlet. I looked at the vitriolic, dirty and twisted remarks on the social network platform on my phone, and I was furious, but I didn't know who to shout to and who to fight back. In the end, I could only fight with myself. Sulking to oneself.

On the verge of explosion.

No one is an exception. No one.

With all kinds of emotions raging, the whole city looked at its team——

"Please, Vicky, please, give the team an explanation."

This is the last hope.

Fortunately, this troubled city did not have to wait too long this time.

Immediately, Kansas Chiefs owner Clark Hunter and president Mark Donovan held a press conference in person. The highest level of treatment showed that they took the matter seriously.

At the press conference, Donovan said:

After the incident, the team was indeed notified and they personally questioned Hunter; Hunter completely denied the woman's accusations and stated that the woman was the one who hit and pushed him, and that he was the victim.

In the absence of further evidence, the team decided to trust the Cleveland police and patiently wait for the police investigation to be handled through the legal process.

However, Hunter lied.

The team was outraged by Hunter's lies and betrayal, and they also took this opportunity to reiterate the team's zero tolerance for any form of violence by players.

Therefore, the Kansas Chiefs decided to fire Hunter immediately, effective immediately.

A clear stand.

The Kansas City Chiefs showed their thunderous attitude with the fastest speed and the highest standard of treatment, and showed their attitude before things escalated further. call.

Kansas City residents let out a long breath—

Finally, the team did not disappoint them.

In the silence of the Old Oak Tavern, someone made a sound.

"Oh, what a pity for a young man."

Provos looked over suddenly, "Joel, what the hell are you talking about?"

The voice ignored it and came back forcefully, "Am I wrong? Without Hunter's support, we can only rely on Levi. God, Levi has endured enough, we really can't ask for more." More, don’t you want to defend your title? Don’t you want us to continue to win?”

Provos, "But we can't sell our souls for victory. He shouldn't extend his fists to women. Only cowards bully those weaker than themselves. Our team doesn't need such cowards!"

Seeing that the quarrel was still continuing, Anderson at the bar stopped him, "Stop! The matter has been decided. The last thing we need now is internal conflict. We need to look forward."

The voice scratched his neck, "I'm just stating a fact..."

Anderson interrupted directly, "Joel, shut up! Didn't you hear me? If you want to continue nagging, you can go outside to cool down in the air and come back after you calm down."

"We look forward! We support the team! That's what it's all about."

"The more times like this, the more the team needs us to unite!"

Chaos, turmoil, unrest.

Although the Kansas Chiefs fought decisively and quickly ended the situation; however, things eventually happened, casting a shadow over the Kansas Chiefs' season prospects.

This is worse and more heartbreaking than the injury——

Because this could have been avoided.

Immediately afterwards, the NFL also held a press conference, but Goodell said nothing new.

Goodell only said that the league will launch an investigation process next.

Unlike formal legal procedures, the league has its own investigation committee into these violent incidents. They will also conduct their own investigations and then make penalties based on the results.

Maybe it's a suspension, maybe it's a fine, maybe it's to prove the player's innocence.

But no matter what, during the investigation, the subject of the investigation must enter the "exempt/emergency retirement list", and the players are prohibited from playing games until the league concludes the investigation.

In other words, before the results of the investigation come out, the alliance will not express any opinions or make any position public, and everything will enter the process.

There were strong winds and thunderous rains.

In less than thirty minutes, the Kansas City Chiefs and the league both took a stand, gaining a foothold amid the chaos and controversy and temporarily stabilizing public opinion.

However, the noise on social networks still has not calmed down.

In addition to discussions around the incident, in-depth discussions on the nature of the incident were also carried out in an all-round way.

Discussions about player behavior, professional ethics, and social responsibilities are aroused. It is generally believed that these players stand in the spotlight, earn millions of annual salaries, and become the idols of millions of teenagers. They must take on the role of role models and accept the Tighter restraints.

At the same time, people are also calling on the NFL and other sports leagues to strengthen the code of conduct for players and emphasize the importance of education and prevention. Rather than cleaning up the mess, prevention in advance can avoid more tragedies.

Reflection and discussion are in full swing, and there is no sign of stopping in a short time. This is just a trigger. All the residue that has been accumulated in society is rising up, and it may evolve into a social topic.

However, amidst all the noise, one person seems to have been forgotten -

Hunter himself.
