Chapter 985 Jaw-dropping
Regardless of the rumors and turmoil in the outside world, the door to the Kansas City Chiefs training base is always locked, blocking out all inquiring eyes.
The media and netizens have all asserted and confirmed with certainty: There is no three hundred taels of silver here.
The silence of the Kansas Chiefs at this moment just proves the outside speculation that the team's locker room atmosphere may have a crack because of Levi.
A dark cloud hangs over the defending champion.
All kinds of rumors are abuzz, and all kinds of inside information are blowing out on social networks. Each one seems to be seen with their own eyes, but no one is willing to calm down and think carefully about where so many inside information come from, where do so many team spies come from, Where did so many eyes come from?
More rumors often mean more false news.
However, this is the reality.
A "rumor" has not been confirmed, but it has become a "fact" on social networks, and netizens are too lazy to think and distinguish. Likes and retweets of indifferent comments continue to add fuel to the fire, and the rumors evolve. For the vast "facts".
Some people say that Kelsey was jealous of Levi, and the two had a fight at the training camp. As a result, Kelsey couldn't beat Levi, who was born in mixed martial arts, and was left with a black eye, so he always wore sunglasses when he came in and out during this period.
Some people say that Mahomes and Levi stopped talking in the training camp. Both of them performed well last season, but Levi soared, while Mahomes hid behind the light. He found it difficult to accept this. fact.
Some people say that Levi has been ostracized by the offensive team and now trains alone in the training camp. Levi is applying for the right to train alone through his agent, completely breaking up with the team.
Rumors come as they come; but the communicators spit and nail it as if it were seen with both eyes; and in the process of spreading, they add more and more details, and the stories become more and more exaggerated——
"Story Club" contributors per capita.
This farce is brewing a storm on social networks.
However, there are exceptions: Kansas Chiefs fans.
This was the first time Glenn Carter had experienced something like this. Amidst all the dazzling negative news, he couldn't help but start to worry.
Doesn't it really matter? The preseason is about to begin, but the team has such an atmosphere? Maybe those rumors are somewhat distorted, but is it possible that they are not groundless? Maybe something did happen in the locker room, and do they really not need to worry?
In the Old Oak Tavern, West looked at the young and immature Carter with a smile on his face and no trace of worry at all.
"Little guy, in the past two years, no, three years, we have watched the rookie grow up step by step, we have watched how the rookie worked hard to unite the locker room, and we have watched how the rookie has led our players to mature. Stand alone.”
"It's just a little thing. If we don't believe in the rookie, then we will be wasting our time as a member of Kansas City."
"Wait, or are you thinking differently, Chris?"
In a word, all eyes turned to Provos.
Provos, who was drinking, suddenly choked, "Damn it, Charles, when did that happen? I have changed my ways."
Looking at the confused Carter, Provos scratched his head, "The first year the rookie joined the team, I hated him, I hated everything about him, I didn't believe he could become the team leader, I didn't even believe He was able to survive the first year.”
"But it turned out that I was wrong, and very wrong."
"And now?"
"Young man, let me tell you something, there is no way a rookie could do those things."
"You can confirm that none of the trolls on the Internet are Chiefs fans. There may be one or two bad apples, but the vast majority are not fans living in Kansas City."
"We have experienced too much with the rookie. We all have a tacit understanding about such things. We believe in him and he also believes in us."
"We don't need to retort or even go to the training ground to express our support. Believe me, when the season starts, those trolls will know what stupid things they have done."
As soon as Provos finished speaking, someone next to him raised his wine glass high, "We will make them kneel down and tremble." Ho, ho, ho, ho.
There was a cry.
There was a celebration in the entire tavern, not just West and Provos. Everyone was relaxed and happy, which was completely different from the bloody chaos on social networks——
It's like two worlds.
For Carter, this was unfamiliar. He had never known that there was such a clear gap between the real world and the online world.
A quick scan of social media will reveal a sense of crisis and anxiety to everyone, as if the Kansas Chiefs' new season is in jeopardy, and the locker room may have become a powder keg, with players collectively collapsing one by one.
However, after leaving the Internet and returning to reality, everything in Kansas City was calm. No, strictly speaking, it should be watching the clouds and clouds comfortably. Not only was it not affected, but everyone expressed their expectations for the new season.
Such a gap is really confusing.
Carter said: I can’t understand.
The Kansas Chiefs fans, who have been tempered by hardships, were completely relaxed and did not start a tit-for-tat confrontation on social networks. Such reactions were mixed.
The bad thing is that as those trolls become more and more violent and outrageous, the rumors naturally become more and more outrageous.
The good thing is that a slap can't make a difference, the anti-fans are shouting but they don't get any response, and the zombie fans and melon-eaters will disperse.
There was no need for an official clarification from the Kansas City Chiefs. The craze subsided in just two days. After all, in the Internet era where hot search lists are calculated in minutes, it is very rare for a hot spot to last for more than twenty-four hours.
However, things soon became heated again——
The preseason begins.
On August 10, the Kansas City Chiefs faced the Cincinnati Bengals at Arrowhead Stadium.
Last season, the Cincinnati Bengals were gearing up for action, just as the Kansas City Chiefs lost to the New England Patriots to end their winning streak. They were full of confidence and believed they could defeat the defending champion.
As a result, there was a bloodbath.
To make matters worse, after that defeat, the Cincinnati Bengals only managed two wins and seven losses in the following season, directly ruining their playoff hopes.
At the same time, the Cincinnati Bengals directly laid off the entire coaching staff.
In this encounter again, even though it is a preseason game, the Cincinnati Bengals are still full of passion and hope to regain their confidence at Arrowhead Stadium.
However, Cincinnati Bengals fans are destined to be disappointed:
Levi, absent.
Mahomes, Kelce, and Hill are all out.
To be precise, three-quarters of the Kansas Chiefs' main players sat on the bench to watch the game, and Reed played with the team's third and fourth teams.
The strategy couldn’t be clearer——
Test the players, hone the tactics, and select a main lineup of fifty-three players before the end of the preseason.
Cincinnati Bengals? Nothing more than a test subject.
