I was acting crazy in North America, and all the crazy people there took it seriously.

Chapter 220 We women must "sacrifice" ourselves for basketball

As it turns out, the "technological" power that pharmaceutical companies have pinned their hopes on is no match for the "beauty" storm stirred up by cheerleaders.

When the final buzzer sounded and the score was set at a decisive victory for the Bulls, almost no one in the arena cared about the specific score. In everyone's mind, the shimmering white light behind the baseline still lingered.

The following day, the newspapers reporting on "Prison BA," well aware of public demand, almost without exception devoted most of their pages to the daringly dressed and energetic cheerleaders.

Steel City Falls! The Autobots Defeated by Chicago's "Big Brother" Offensive!

Listeners who heard the broadcast immediately bought newspapers, and then, staring at those long legs, that snow-white skin, and the blurry, alluring glimpse beneath that mini-skirt, they couldn't help but swallow hard, their eyes wide, finally understanding why the announcer had shouted "It's a foul!"

This is more than just a foul; it's an absolute annihilation!

"Honestly, this is too ruthless! What man could resist it? I certainly couldn't."

"Is this a test of basketball skills? To make a shot under this kind of interference, it would have to be God himself wearing a jersey and stepping onto the court! No, even God would be stunned!"

"The Autobots can't be the only ones to enjoy... no, to suffer this kind of test! It's not fair!"

"Yes! I suggest the league mandate that every team's home games must have a cheerleading squad performing behind the opponent's basket! If we're going to put them to the test, let's all be tested together!"

"Uh, actually I think we could arrange cheerleading performances like this behind the baskets of both the home and away teams during every game. That's what it means to train an iron will!"

"..."

If we're talking about ruthlessness, you're the ruthless one! You're really putting yourself through a tough test!
But that makes so much sense!

This is absolutely not because we like watching it! We're doing it for the long-term development and fair competition of "Prison BA"!
This public opinion shift, while being relayed to the NBA league through newspaper columns, also left traditional sports figures, who were originally gearing up for a new round of fierce criticism regarding "indecent performances on the field," completely dumbfounded once again.

A highly respected Baseball Hall of Famer wrote a heartbreaking article in the newspaper, speaking on behalf of the traditional sports world: "I can't understand! I really can't understand! Shouldn't such a public and indecent performance be boycotted by the whole nation?"

"Where has the social morality of America gone? Have all American men become old scoundrels who only think with their lower bodies?"

"What's wrong with this country? Where is your moral bottom line?"

Then he was exposed by the vast number of "prison BA" viewers!
Yes, the second game did not disappoint the audience in the end. The post-game survey showed that even the Autobots fans who lost the game mostly said that it was "worth the ticket price"!

In just two official games, "Prison BA" has already gained a large number of die-hard fans across the United States, and after being subjected to sweeping criticism, he spontaneously fought back.

"That's called innovation! Do you understand? Innovation!"

—To be honest, cheerleading squads aren't anything new these days, but they're usually all men, and they don't have many tricks up their sleeves; they just honestly shout slogans and cheer. —So, Annie's cheerleading squad, composed entirely of young women, is really something new! And a cheerleading squad that incorporates such revealing outfits that accentuate the beauty of the human body and energetic gymnastic dance moves into their performance is truly unique.

In the words of The Sun, this evolution of the Chicago cheerleading team has pushed the history of American cheerleading forward by at least twenty years! This is a milestone moment for American cheerleading culture!

—An unnamed person who personally guided Anne said that this was still an understatement.

This was unanimously agreed upon by supporters of "Prison BA".

Many people have even begun to look back with new awareness and appreciate the explanations of those "great Confucian scholars" on the "superiority of prison culture".

“I’m starting to believe those experts now,” a listener told Voice of Freedom in a phone call. “Look, ‘Prison BA’ has only held two games and it has already incubated a great innovation in cheerleading culture! This kind of innovative vitality is something that traditional leagues can’t catch up with in a hundred years! And those old fogies with dirty hearts are still thinking everything they see is vulgar!”

“That’s right! Only in an environment like ‘Prison BA’ that encourages breaking all conventions can such admirable creativity be born! Prison culture really has something special!” another listener excitedly echoed in the comments.

Even feminist organizations, contrary to what traditional moralists had hoped for, did not criticize the Chicago cheerleading team as "immoral," but instead expressed their support for the team.
"The revitalization of the American spirit cannot be achieved without the participation and support of women! They have proven that women can wield a powerful influence in the male-dominated world of sports!"

Meanwhile, many female fans from the "Prison BA" team's location immediately joined in.

The main reason is that, as everyone has seen, the Chicago cheerleaders, returning with honors, became an overnight sensation. They were interviewed by several newspapers, and reportedly, a group endorsement is waiting for them.

Women's fan groups and individuals across the country have publicly stated that they will not let Chicago have all the glory! They will also organize themselves to "sacrifice" themselves for basketball when their supported teams play at home games!
"We're aiming for the 'Sixth Man of the Year' award, but the old fogies better not watch!"

This statement caused an exponential surge in the popularity of "Prison BA"!

Countless men who previously had only a vague understanding of basketball rules and were merely joining in the fun of "Prison Basketball" now seem to have collectively "awakened" and are declaring their "deep affection" and "firm support" for "Prison Basketball" in various ways.

"I grew up watching 'Prison Basketball,' uh, I mean, I've always been a loyal fan of 'Prison Basketball'! It started from the opening game! From the moment the referee knocked out a player in the opening game, I knew this league was extraordinary!" A man who had never read any sports pages before declared to his friend with great confidence.

"To support the innovation of sports in America, I've decided to attend every 'Prison Basketball' game!" declared a wealthy man.

"That's right! This isn't just about appreciation... uh, observation! It's also the best way to temper our own willpower! The revitalization of the American spirit requires us to do this!"

In short, to sum it all up, the men declared loudly in the most sincere tone:
We absolutely love "Prison BA"! We love this unconventional and dynamic "innovation"!

If you enjoy watching, please "sacrifice" yourself a little more!
