Chapter 711: The atmosphere
Hot discussions, arguments, attacks, and abuses.
It was full of smoke and noise.
Negative events triggered a series of subsequent reactions, and the bustling sounds of social networks roared down violently and suddenly like a midsummer rainstorm.
Hunter was caught off guard.
Things took a turn for the worse. Before Hunter could even take a breath, he was sucked into the turbulent whirlpool, spinning around and losing his way in the darkness.
Everything is closely related to Hunter, but it seems to have nothing to do with it.
In front of the team and the league, Hunter thought he had some say. This was the reason why he spoke for Bell and the reason why he fought to restructure the contract in advance. He sincerely believed in himself——
Trust him to pull the lever.
However, there was a sudden burst of wind and rain, the bubbles disappeared, and I woke up from the dream, and the world revealed its true appearance.
He is insignificant and not worth mentioning at all.
Regardless of the team or the league, no one cares about his opinions and views; it's not that he can argue in the face of the irrefutable evidence of the surveillance video, it's just that he, the client, was not involved in the matter at all, and his fate was already determined long ago down.
Dismissed. period.
That's all.
He has no weight in front of real interests.
He even needed to know his fate through a live TV broadcast on ESPN.
So ironic.
Renew? High salary?
All these extravagant hopes have been wiped out.
The question now is whether he can continue to play and whether he can find a team willing to accept him like Foster. There are also league penalties and legal proceedings waiting ahead.
Realizing this, all the anger, irritability, and grievances were swallowed hard——
Even though he had smashed all the furniture in his house before this, how could he be wrong? What was wrong was the woman who took the initiative to have sex, and what was wrong was the Kansas chief who was anxious to end the relationship without asking for details or confirming the solution.
Wasn't it just that he beat a woman? The woman had no fractures, was not hospitalized, and did not die. Is there any need to make such a fuss?
hehe.
After his agent's earnest dissuasion, Hunter took a deep breath, reluctantly swallowed all these thoughts, and regained his composure.
Waiting for the team and league press conference to end, watching the focus whizzing away, completely forgetting the real protagonist of the news incident, an official apology letter from Hunter barely brought his attention back.
"...I regret my personal actions and am willing to accept all consequences..."
Bah bah bah.
Although the open letter contains more than that, the core is this sentence.
Briefly, the focus returned to Hunter.
Some people believe that since Hunter has apologized and the victims have not continued to appeal, they should give Hunter a chance to mend his ways.
However, more people believe that Hunter's apology is just forced by the situation. They should not believe it easily, but should watch Hunter's follow-up actions.
Others believe Hunter should leave professional football permanently and receive anger management therapy.
Especially under the background that Foster found a new job without any cost or punishment, Hunter's next direction has become the focus of heated discussion.
At the cusp of this storm, the league teams are all cautious and cautious. No one dares to directly confront the gun. The enthusiasm of public opinion can be seen from the side.
Not only Hunter, but also the Kansas Chiefs are always on the forefront of the storm——
The defending champion's cover-up and disregard have become the object of strong condemnation from netizens.
It is precisely because the Kansas Chiefs and Washington Redskins are so conciliatory and even pretend to be peaceful that the players' off-field violence has never been taken seriously and is getting more and more intense.
Public opinion is not ready to let the Kansas Chiefs off easily. Originally, the battle for playoff seats entered a new chapter this week——
The Kansas City Chiefs head to the road to face their division rivals, the Los Angeles Chargers.
This year is the Los Angeles Chargers' second season under new head coach Anthony Lynn. After adjustments and adjustments, the team is finally on track, and quarterback Philip Rivers is playing the best game of his career. A most wonderful season.
After starting the season with one win and two losses, the Los Angeles Lightning made a full recovery and ushered in a wave of six consecutive victories to reverse the situation. After defeating the Cincinnati Bengals last week, the season record improved to ten wins and three losses.
This is the first time since 2009 that the team's wins have reached double digits.
Currently, in the American League West, the Los Angeles Chargers' record is second only to the Kansas City Chiefs' 11 wins and two losses, and is tied with the New England Patriots, the second seed in the American League.
Although the Kansas Chiefs have guaranteed entry into the playoffs, the division title and seeding are all up in the air, and the Los Angeles Chargers are eyeing them.
To put it simply, the Los Angeles Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs are currently competing for the American League West Championship; at the same time, the two teams are competing for a first-round bye in the playoffs and home court advantage. The situation is extremely tight.
The outcome of the next game is likely to completely overturn the American League's playoff pattern. The Los Angeles Chargers are a strong team that can compete with the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams. The Kansas Chiefs need to go all out.
What's more, these are still divisional rivals. Even if it has nothing to do with the playoff spots, the two teams are fighting to the death.
However.
The noise off the field completely shifted the focus, so that no one cared about the upcoming division showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers.
It's dumbfounding.
In the pre-match press conference, even when facing Levi, the bustling questions revolved entirely around Hunter, and there were traps waiting behind.
So much so that Levi threw a big bomb at the beginning.
"I hate Los Angeles."
Suddenly, the whole audience took a breath and stared at Levi in disbelief.
Levi shrugged slightly.
"The last time I came here, we lost. It was not a good memory. This time I came here, no one seemed to care about our preparation. Oh, please give me a reason to like Los Angeles."
Witty, cunning.
The scene was filled with laughter, and now I finally understood what Levi meant.
However, even so, Levi still could not avoid it.
When a reporter asked Levi to comment on the way the Kansas Chiefs front office handled the Hunter incident, Levi spread his hands and rolled his eyes.
"Look, I still can't escape."
This comment made the reporters burst into laughter.
Levi also knew that he couldn't hide, so he simply responded.
"We made a bad call and made a bad choice, it's as simple as that."
Huh!
Take a breath of cold air.
Although the media has been aggressive, not only Levi, but even Reid is no exception. They are surrounding coaches and players, hoping to get a positive response; but obviously, no one is willing to do so——
In fact, reporters also knew about this incident, and it was almost impossible to ask coaches and players to criticize the management in person, and it was such a difficult incident.
But reporters are still encircling and suppressing them.
To be precise, reporters just want to see the embarrassment of coaches and players.
A tease, an attack.
But I didn't expect that Li Wei would actually...
