Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 710: Storm
The storm is brewing slowly.

The most absurd and ridiculous thing is that the Foster incident and the Hunter incident happened less than a month apart and continued to grab public attention.

Just now, the media and netizens were still strongly condemning the Washington Redskins for their greed and ugly eating habits, with a breath stuck in their chest that they couldn't let out.

Soon after, TMZ dropped a bombshell, which implicitly revealed the inaction of the Kansas City Chiefs and the league in the Hunter incident, instantly igniting anger.

Bustling and bustling.

TMZ's report swept across the entire social network like wildfire, detonating energy across the board and causing the situation to spread out of control.

The haze hung over Kansas City layer by layer, and people were in panic.

This small town, which has been silent for a long time, has been away from the public eye for nearly half a century. The blue-collar workers living here have been forgotten, ignored and neglected. No one has noticed that these people who work diligently and down-to-earth are breathing hidden in unknown corners.

Yet, overnight, they were thrust into the spotlight.

From Levi and Mahomes to the Super Bowl championship to the offseason turmoil, this time they were caught up in the storm in a less glorious way, allowing Kansas City residents to experience another side of fame and fortune.

Cruel, dark, bloody and cold.

No one cares about the residents of Kansas City, and it is easy to equate the city with brutal accomplices just because of one Hunter.

Attack, overwhelming.

Before it even had time to react, Kansas City was drowned in an overwhelming barrage of abuse and curses, wave after wave.

can not breath.

That pressure, invisible but objectively existing, penetrated into the city in every possible way. On Wednesday morning, different offices and streets were filled with an apocalyptic atmosphere, and even the thought of celebrating victory had disappeared.

Kansas City is like an isolated island.

Dazed. Confused. Angry. Annoyed.

Anxiety. Irritability. Helplessness. Disappointment.

Complex emotions were surging in my chest, but I couldn't find an outlet. Looking at the sarcastic, dirty and twisted remarks on the social networking platforms on my phone, I was furious, but I didn't know who to talk to or fight back against. In the end, I could only sulk by myself.

On the verge of exploding.

No one is exempt. No one.

Amidst all the emotions, the entire city looked towards their team.

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

This is the last hope.

Fortunately, this disaster-stricken city did not have to wait too long this time.

At the first moment, Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt and president Mark Donovan personally held a press conference, and the highest level of treatment showed their seriousness in the matter.

At the press conference, Donovan stated:

After the incident, the team did receive a notification and they personally questioned Hunter; Hunter completely denied the lady's accusations and said that it was the lady who was trying to scam him and actively bumped and pushed him, and 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 proceed through legal procedures.

However, Hunter lied.

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

Therefore, the Kansas City Chiefs decided to fire Hunt immediately, effective on the spot.

The stance is clear.

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

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.

"Alas, it's a pity for such a young man."

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

The voice didn't care and hit 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, don't you want to defend the title? Don't you want us to continue to win?"

Provos, "But we can't sell our souls for victory. He shouldn't raise his fist to a woman. Only a coward would bully someone weaker than himself. Our team doesn't need such a coward!"

Seeing that the quarrel was still going on, Anderson at the bar spoke up to stop it, "Stop! The matter has been decided. The last thing we need right now is internal conflict. We need to move forward."

The voice stiffened its neck and said, "I am just stating a fact..."

Anderson interrupted directly, "Joel, shut up! Didn't you hear me? If you want to keep nagging, you can go outside to get some fresh air and calm down, and come back when you calm down."

"We move forward! We support the team! That's all."

"It's moments like this that need us to unite!"

Chaos, turmoil, unrest.

Although the Kansas City Chiefs acted decisively and quickly to resolve the issue, the incident still happened, casting a shadow on the Chiefs' season prospects.

This is worse than the injury and more heartbreaking——

Because this could have been avoided.

Immediately afterwards, the NFL also held a press conference, but Goodell did not say anything new.

Goodell just said that the league will start the investigation process next.

Unlike formal legal procedures, the league has its own investigation committee for 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 proving the player's innocence.

But no matter what, during the investigation, the subject of the investigation must be placed on the "exempt/emergency retirement list" and the player will be prohibited from playing in the game until the league completes the investigation.

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

There was a violent storm and heavy thunder.

In less than thirty minutes, both the Kansas City Chiefs and the league made statements, standing their ground amid the chaos and controversy and temporarily stabilizing public opinion.

However, the noise on social networks has not yet subsided.

In addition to discussions surrounding the incident, in-depth exploration of the essence was also fully launched.

There is a heated discussion about player behavior, professional ethics and social responsibility. People generally believe that these players stand under the spotlight, earn millions of dollars a year and become idols of thousands of young people. They must assume the role of role models and accept stricter constraints.

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

Reflection and discussion are in full swing, with no sign of stopping in the short term. This is just a fuse, and all the residues deposited in society are surging up, which may then evolve into a social topic.

However, in this hustle and bustle, one person seemed to be forgotten.

Hunter himself.
