―――――――――――――

Christmas Eve, or Christmas Eve, is one of the Christmas holidays in most Christian countries, and the United States is one of them. It specifically refers to the whole day of December 24, but because the general festive atmosphere is easy to mobilize at night, large-scale events are concentrated in the evening, which is more appropriate to call it Christmas Eve. At that time, all the people rushed home to be reunited. An indispensable celebration of Christmas night is a party. Most American family members gather at home for a sumptuous dinner, then sit around a roaring fire, play the piano and sing songs. Or hold a special costume party and celebrate Christmas Eve all night long as a happy, peaceful, and revelry Christmas Eve and reunion night.

However, St. Joseph's Yale and Connecticut Huskies were not so lucky, and they needed to play games before they could go home with their families. Because it's a holiday, the vast majority of people are enjoying the holidays, and the atmosphere is so enthusiastic and joyful that Connecticut Arena becomes a sea of white before the game. It's a true tradition that tournament entry is commonplace, and the absence of the Connecticut Huskies in March Madness is news, and last year, under the leadership of Ben Gordon and Emeka Okafor, Connecticut won the NCAA championship for the second time in its history.

In this context, although the Connecticut Huskies have gone with two cores, with this signboard, it has attracted the second-ranked high and small center in the United States, Rudy Gai, who was originally recruited by Kyle, but because of the full scholarship problem, he did not give the Connecticut Huskies this signboard face. Coupled with the original lineup of Charlie Villanueva, Josh Boone, Marcus Williams, and Hilton Armstrong, the stars are star-studded and powerful. There is also the tuning of NCAA coach Jim Cajon, the championship favorite, not the Great East Conference championship, but the NCAA championship favorite.

St. Joseph's Yale team? Martelley was completely unknown in the past, and his strength was not outstanding, and he has only recently been able to show his head. The biggest star is Kyle Lowry, who averages 18+7+3+2 data per game, and is indeed a famous party in the entire Great East League, and the most important thing is that he leads the team to win all 8 games. What else is there? Gone! They are known for their defense, teamwork and tenacity! Struggle! Hale and hearty!

But it's still a high-profile game, a battle of talent and team! The contest between Haoqiang and the dark horse! ESPN will broadcast the battle of the spotlight live. ESPN, the largest cable television station in the United States, the full name is ENTERTAINMENTANDSPORTPROGRAMNETW0RK, which can be translated as "entertainment sports television network". In fact, ESPN is not only a giant of the American sports television industry, but also a pivotal figure in global sports programming. It's a big compilation of all the sports programs, and it's a huge sports kaleidoscope. ESPN was founded with the aim of giving sports fans 24-hour access to a variety of sports programs, which is a revolutionary idea. But when it was first founded in 1979, many people thought the idea was stupid. Every network already had a dozen hours of sports a week at the time, and who wanted to watch more games? Thanks to its creators, ESPN is what it is today. Today, it has more than 80 million home users, compared to the 280 million people in the United States, with a total of about 100 million households, which means that 80% of American households pay to watch ESPN.

ESPN has a presence in all areas of sports, with TV Channels 1, 2, and Sports News that broadcast globally in more than 20 languages and 20 channels, as well as ESPN broadcasts, magazines, websites, restaurants and ESPN brand apparel. ESPN is synonymous with success, and its magazine has an extraordinary appeal from the first time it appears, competing with the old Sports Illustrated. In short, ESPN has all the sports news.

ESPN has promoted its brand to the fullest, but it has become more than just a marketing machine, it has become a part of American culture, and its signature show, "Sports Center," has become more than just a show, it has become an indispensable necessity of American life.

It is very, very rare for such an influential TV station to broadcast a NCAA regular season game, and generally national TV stations will choose to broadcast the game in "March Madness", and the number of regular season broadcasts is 1/2,000, and the Connecticut Huskies and St. Joseph Yale are undoubtedly the lucky ones in one or two. From this point, you can imagine how hot this game is. It's a great opportunity for players on both sides of the world to get the word out for their performances that will be in front of the nation, and their performances will add a lot of points to the NBA draft, which is called exposure, attention and fame. You're playing well, you're talented, you've got to be recognized.

Before the game began, everyone on the Yale team formed a circle, hooked shoulders and backs, cheered and cheered, cheered each other on, and encouraged themselves. Everyone seemed excited, on TV! National, what a great opportunity to become famous! Of course, for them, who often face tens of thousands of spectators at a game, they will not be afraid of this gaffe. They just need to walk away with a win on this special day, and why don't the Connecticut Huskies think so?

Before the game, the DJ called out the names of the players, mainly the Connecticut Huskies. The two sides moved their bodies, warmed up with shots, looked at each other in the air, and declared war with their eyes!

Connecticut fans are much more civilized, at least not spitting out words like FKY at this point. Kyle looked around, and there were still insulting labels, targeting him alone, or insulting the whole team. He also saw Yelena smiling and shouting at him, not far behind the Yale bench. Kyle waved his head and smiled politely.

But his expression fell into the eyes of another woman, which made her originally happy and joyful face gloomy all at once. This person is Valecciona, who took advantage of this rare holiday to reunite with her family and secretly came to support her sweetheart, wanting to surprise him, but she didn't expect this bastard to be flirting with another woman under her nose, yes! It's just eyebrows, watching the two of them exchange electric eyes, Valeciona almost didn't vomit blood. If it's an old woman, of course, it's no problem, the problem is that she is still a very beautiful woman, with a figure, a face and a temperament, and the most important thing is that the woman is not worse than her in any aspect, she can only see the hell if she is in a good mood, Valeciona's face is as black as she can now, and the four big words "I'm not happy" seem to be engraved on her face.

(PS: I recommend a friend's football novel "Born Nine", if you are interested, you can watch it.) )
