"The referee blew the whistle to end the game. The result of the game was really unexpected. It was completely unexpected. From the process to the result, everything broke the pre-match expectations. This situation is enough to make all majors fall below their expectations. Glasses, I don’t understand what is happening at all.”
"As the top seed in the National League, the Seattle Seahawks are undoubtedly the favorite to win this year's Super Bowl. The explosive performance of the Legion is enough to sweep the entire league. Their absolute strength is even more outstanding. People are looking forward to this top five defensive team in history. To be able to give a great performance in the Super Bowl."
"But unfortunately, they met the San Francisco 49ers - rather than meeting another strong team, it was more like meeting a destined nemesis."
"Three seasons and seven meetings, the Seattle Seahawks only won one victory from their rival in the same district, and that was in the absence of the opponent's main quarterback Lu Ke; and when Lu Ke started six games In the game, the Seattle Seahawks were hard-pressed to win. Even with the strong rise of the defensive team this season, they still failed to stop Lu Ke's offensive pace. They were defeated many times and never found a way to contain Lu Ke."
"According to statistics, in the six games Lu Ke served as the starting quarterback, five of them scored at least 35 points, and the only exception was the fourteenth week of the regular season this season. , but Lu Ke still scored 21 points. Such a strong dominance truly destroyed the steel defense that Pete Carroll spent four seasons building. He deserves to be the absolute nemesis of the Seattle Seahawks."
"It's really unbelievable! Even though I'm looking through this set of data right now, I still can't imagine how all of this happened. It seems that every time he faces the Seattle Seahawks, Lu Ke can explode With endless energy, he can dominate the entire court!"
"Yes! I used this highly personal word: Dominate!"
"Any fan who watched Lu Ke's performance against the Seattle Seahawks defense would have to sigh: This is the model of a truly top quarterback! Precision! Delicacy! Wisdom! Calmness! Composure! Comprehensive! In place! Bold. !Astute! He has the entire game firmly in his hands! Remember, even Jim Harper! Even Brian Hampton! Their power must take a back seat! Completely demonstrated Out of the essence of a quarterback’s adaptability, crisis management and on-the-spot arrangements on the field, important changes may occur every second!”
"Lu Ke really took the initiative in his hands. Then, he received the strongest and most steadfast support from his teammates and completed a perfect showdown! He reached the National League finals for three consecutive years and the Super Bowl for two consecutive years. , Lu Ke is using his performance to declare to the entire league: This undrafted player has energy far beyond imagination, and every coach who missed him in the 2011 draft should regret it."
"This should also include the Seattle Seahawks!"
In the studio, Kirk's impassioned words were transmitted to every corner of the North American continent through radio waves. Such personally biased comments made Kirk suffer numerous criticisms and criticisms. Many fans believed that Kirk brought his personal views into the game. game, this is unfair to the Seattle Seahawks.
But these are all things for later.
Standing in the noise of the Century Chain Stadium, Carl Smith did not hear Kirk's words. Naturally, he did not know that in order to avoid talking about the discriminatory and insulting term "minimum consumption", Kirk exhausted all his energy. All rationality was lost, and the remaining trace of restraint was all tied to the "minimum consumption", so that other words became unbridled, and they were vented and exploded in an endless and passionate way.
Even if Kirk didn't mention it, this word was still stirring in Carl's mind:
"Minimum consumption, minimum consumption, minimum consumption, minimum consumption."
It was like a demonic sound filling the brain. The sharp and harsh sound penetrated into the brain bit by bit along the eardrums, and then began to overturn. Because it was too painful and too fierce, the stomach also started to tumble, and there was a strong burst. The nauseating feeling grabbed his throat.
He wanted to die.
Carl Smith, Seattle Seahawks quarterbacks coach.
Maybe others don't know how serious the dispute between Lu Ke and the Seattle Seahawks is. Maybe Pete Carroll has long forgotten those trivial matters, but it is impossible for Karl to forget. He still remembers, deeply remembers:
In the rookie training camp, he humiliated Lu Ke face to face, but Lu Ke retaliated head-on, so that the two parties broke up on bad terms, which indirectly led to the ending of Lu Ke being ignored in the draft. That was the beginning of bad luck.
Karl always believes that Lu Ke is just a role player. He has excellent passing accuracy, but he also faces countless shortcomings. His overall ability has only reached the passing line. Such a quarterback, every training camp There will be a few in the city, but no one has ever been able to survive in the league. Just look at Ryan Fitzpatrick. What's more, an Asian? He really doesn't think rugby is a sport suitable for yellow people. It's best for them to make plans and be accountants, isn't it?
In the opening game of the 2011 season, when the San Francisco 49ers faced off against the Seattle Seahawks, Carr had almost completely forgotten about the existence of this undrafted player—even though the entire league was abuzz with discussions about the first Asian starting quarterback. topic, Karl didn't think he was a threat either.
He thinks that Lu Ke is making a fuss out of a molehill, and that is not "race/ethnic/discrimination" at all. It is just Lu Ke himself talking nonsense. There is nothing worthy of in-depth discussion, and it is completely Lu Ke himself. Paranoidally, he pretends to be a victim to gain sympathy. Therefore, he would not take it to heart, let alone apologize. From beginning to end, he would never consider changing his original remarks or changing his views.
But since that game, Lu Ke has used game after game and touchdown after touchdown to firmly emphasize that memory in Carl's mind. That period is insignificant and not worth mentioning. Memories - as if to refute his point of view, Lu Ke proved his mistake with wonderful performances time and time again. The slaps slapped him hard on the face one after another, making him deeply I will remember that brief meeting deeply.
Until now.
"20:50", he raised his head and stared at the bright and dazzling scoreboard on the big screen in the stadium, mocking his stupidity and embarrassment ferociously.
The victory in the sixth consecutive starting game, the rediscovery of the strength of "minimum consumption", and... the unrelenting and comprehensive crushing catharsis, everything is declaring Karl's ignorance: Lu Ke is a An excellent quarterback, and a quarterback who continues to grow and mature——
Although his rookie season was astonishing and his sophomore season was full of firepower, it seemed that he had reached an unsurpassable peak of perfection early on. But in fact, the progress and improvement in his junior season made Lu Ke truly become a top player. Quarterback, and has the capital to stand side by side with the four elite quarterbacks. This ability and perseverance are enough to make anyone stunned, proving that he is far from a mere role player.
"Minimum consumption, minimum consumption, minimum consumption."
The sneers and ridicules filled by the demonic voice were tormenting Karl severely. The despair brought him to the verge of falling apart - so, what should he do?
Turning his head for a moment, Karl could see the confusion in the audience. The entire Century Chain Stadium was stunned. He couldn't believe it and refused to believe it: how could the league's best defensive team, the best in history, be defeated? Beat it into a sieve? Why is there no power to fight back at all?
The confusion and confusion, loss and sadness hit Carl's chest hard, and then he saw the San Francisco 49ers who were cheering wildly and celebrating wildly. The white wind wave was rolling on the green grass, cheering and cheering. Groups jumped and stood partying on their corpses.
he……
Should he...should apologize? If he apologizes, will Lu Ke let them go? If he bows his head, will Lu Ke succeed? If he gives in, will Lu Ke not pursue him fiercely? if……
Those disturbing thoughts were raging in his mind. Karl took two steps completely without even realizing it. He found the back of the No. 14 jersey in the crowd and cast his sight. At this moment, Lu Ke turned around, and the two people's eyes inadvertently collided in the air.
Under the gaze of Lu Ke, Karl clenched his fists, straightened his waist, prepared to show his dignity and pride, and then took steps towards Lu Ke; but Karl had just taken steps, Lu Ke He just moved away. There was no hatred, no anger or even resentment, just... a dismissive understatement, as if he was just an insignificant ant, long forgotten in the long river of time.
He thought he was extremely important, but it was just his own illusion.
Unprecedentedly, Karl suffered the heaviest blow. He seemed to be able to clearly feel the severe pain in his abdomen, which made him couldn't help but start to bend down. The shame ignited a raging fire and destroyed all his dignity. Burned down, not even ashes remain.
"Minimum consumption" seems to have become a mark of shame engraved on his tombstone that will never disappear.
Back then...what happened? The memory began to become clear again, and those vivid pictures were reminding Carl Smith:
What a stupid mistake he made. if! If only he could...
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world, and there are also no ifs. Those conjectures will never become reality.
