Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 638

Chapter 638: Act with lightning speed Chapter 638: Act with lightning speed The truth lies plain in the light of day.

First, the true culprits should be those haughty and arrogant fans of the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium.

Second, the true protagonist is Mahomes, while Li Wei is simply defending his brother.

Third, the so-called “life-threatening” situation was non-existent, as Li Wei didn’t make any out-of-line moves, and not even a swear word could be found in the conversation.

The NFL didn’t respond immediately, which now seems to be due to their diligent investigation into the truth, dealing with the matter in a decisive and powerful manner.

Even though no official stance had been taken for the time being, one could still perceive the League’s caution and emphasis, treating the incident with the utmost seriousness—

From the event’s occurrence to Goodell’s appearance, it hadn’t even been twelve hours.

Normally, such complicated situations would require time for investigation and evidence collection, not to mention ten to fifteen days, even three to five days were common.

...

But the League realized that the longer it took, the more irreparable the damage might become, so they needed swift action to control the situation and minimize harm.

Therefore.

Goodell stepped in, and without even making an official League statement, merely presented the evidence and revealed the truth with cool objectivity.

This single action was enough to demonstrate the League’s attitude—

There was to be no coddling of villains, nor any whitewashing.

As expected!

Goodell’s subsequent statement confirmed this speculation.

“…We hope that all the rumors and slanders can stop immediately.

The League welcomes players from all around the world with open arms and has zero tolerance for discrimination…”

“Moving forward, we will continue our thorough investigation to identify fans who initiated the provocation, and we will discuss further disciplinary actions.

At the same time, we hope that teams will cooperate actively with the investigation, assisting the League in eradicating such behavior and creating a clean and peaceful ideal competitive environment for the players…”

Bla bla bla.

What followed was a series of official platitudes, boring and better left unheard.

But one by one, reporters were rubbing their hands in eagerness—

Even though Goodell did not explicitly point fingers, his implied direction towards the New England Patriots couldn’t have been clearer, from demanding their cooperation in the investigation to hinting at their complicity with the League in severely punishing the troublemaking fans.

Over the years, the relationship between the official stance of the League and the New England Patriots has always been enigmatic.

If it’s described as “birds of a feather flock together,” but the League has always hoped other teams would rise because a monopoly is not good for the ratings.

Yet if it’s seen as oppositional, with the New England Patriots repeatedly crossing the line and the League’s punishments being ineffectual tickling through boots, it’s a different story.

Naturally, some believe that there’s collusion between the League and the New England Patriots, with Goodell providing a brick behind the Patriots’ dynasty.

Others think that the League has always tried to suppress the New England Patriots, who have grown too big and now completely look down on the League, having long lost any deterrence over the Patriots.

Opinions are divided.

And now, is the League finally ready to get tough with the New England Patriots?

Or, from another perspective, is the League finally ready to support the Kansas City Chiefs as a bulwark against the New England Patriots?

At least, from all the signs so far, Goodell’s stance is firm, and this incident leaves no room for maneuver.

Whir, whir whirring.

A stone cast creates a thousand ripples!

Following the official press conference by the NFL, a massive uproar erupted across social networks in an instant.

Just before the press conference, the rising tide of negativity hit a solid wall, the remnants of a fierce grin still lingering on their lips not yet smoothed away, when suddenly they were hammered by backlash, retreating in utter defeat.

“This, this is the truth!”

“As expected, it’s New England again, haha, those who know, know.”

“I bet those New England fans who thought they were next in line for the throne didn’t see this coming.”

“Life threats?

The gall to tell such blatant lies, to completely distort truth and reality, New England is probably the only one in the entire League capable of that.”

“Gillette Stadium thought the sophomore quarterback would be an easy target, aimed to inflict some mental trauma, they never expected to be so thoroughly embarrassed, haha, am I the only one who finds this immensely satisfying?”

“Li Wei, well done, that’s the way to do it!

Hit back with integrity, refuse to suffer in silence.”

“So, is this a turnaround?

Not exactly, after all, it’s New England we’re talking about, this kind of truth is not surprising at all.”

“Upon closer thought, it’s terrifying, so who exactly posted that initial cut and edited video?”

“Heh, don’t be naive, that out-of-context video, who else could have put it out there if not the New England Patriots?”

“This whole debacle was orchestrated by the New England Patriots themselves, they just didn’t expect the League to actually side with Li Wei.”

The uproar keeps boiling over, utterly unstoppable.

The above is just the tip of the iceberg; speculations about various conspiracy theories are getting more and more exaggerated and outrageous, half of the social network is talking about this.

And it’s only getting more intense; the New England Patriots’ past scandals have been dug out once again for a public flogging, with criticism and attacks coming from everywhere.

All of this is making the vast fan base of the New England Patriots uncomfortable.

It was supposed to be party time for the New England Patriots after defeating the Kansas City Chiefs in a formidable showdown, claiming a precious victory, even a Monday workday couldn’t dampen the spirits; instead, no one’s concerned with the outcome of the game, the spotlight’s been stolen by off-field gossip.

Monday turns into hell once again.

Now, Patriots fans won’t have any of it, ignoring the truth, they defend themselves adamantly, claiming they are the victims and that the Chiefs and the League are ganging up on them, fearing that they’ll continue to dominate the Super Bowl.

Some fans are resolute in waiting for the investigation results from the League and the New England Patriots, call them stubborn, naive, or rational, they are single-mindedly waiting for the “official stance”, refusing to acknowledge anything until Belichick or the Patriots have spoken.

The argument is at a stalemate.

But these comments also bring the attention of netizens to —

Yes, Belichick, that devil.

In every Patriots’ scandal, the shadow of that cunning old figure always lingers in the background, and this time seems to be no exception.

Perhaps it was Belichick who let that video leak out.

However, after the backlash hit, Belichick disappeared completely, not making any comments from start to finish, rejecting all phone interviews.

So, if this isn’t suspicious, what is?

And Brady, the face of the League, the NFL’s banner, the Football GOAT, always craving the limelight, always keen to weigh in on everything, suddenly zips his lips, taking on the aloof posture of an unworldly sage?

Belichick and Brady, the two standards of the New England Patriots, have both fallen silent, but this hasn’t quieted the noise.

Instead, the waves of social media keep rising relentlessly due to the suspicion of a guilty conscience.

The situation is subtly slipping out of control.
