492 The elephant is angry
Standing on the court, Patrick Peterson was panting, gasping for breath, his mind was in a mess, he couldn't sort out his thoughts, replaying the attack over and over again, but he couldn't review the blueprint of the whole game, only one thought was amplified and amplified in his head:
Logan Newman! Logan Newman! Logan Newman!
Just now, Peterson was responsible for defending Newman in the opposite position; However, Newman broke free from his marking and created the Cardinals' biggest gap of the day so far, scoring a touchdown with momentum. As for Peterson, he himself stood beside Vernon Davis with a confused face, and he had no idea how this offensive gear was accomplished.
Aggrieved, it's really aggrieved.
Looking left and right in confusion, Peterson tried to find an answer, but only caught a similar emotion in the eyes of his teammates, all panting and looking at each other, not understanding what was going on:
Obviously, they have the overall upper hand, and they are almost about to completely strangle the offensive throat of the 49ers, from the raiding quarterback to the short pass defense, to pressing all the way, everything is in the hands of the Cardinals; But just when they were about to bend their waists, the 49ers ushered in a strong rebound and gave a fatal blow. How did all this happen?
Raising his head, Peterson stared at the dead silence in the stadium, the dark red turbulent sea was stunned, and even the curses disappeared completely, and countless question marks wandered and helplessly communicated in the sight, as if they had lost the focus of their sight.
In the huge Phoenix University Stadium, the extreme contrast between ice and fire is plunged, but this time, it is the home fans who have fallen into the ice cellar.
The dark red sea composed of 60,000 people seemed to have been drained of their spiritual bones, dazed and overwhelmed, and could only sit in place in a daze; The white tide of 3,500 people gathered in a narrow and cramped corner, but it burst out with a vast and majestic force, and the enthusiastic roars and cheers were like tornadoes, rampant and devastated in the empty and silent court.
The referee's whistle blew for the special service teams of both sides to come on, as the San Francisco 49ers' coaching staff had just signaled that they would opt for a bonus point.
The shrill whistle finally woke up the attention of the home fans, and it was almost instinctive/instinctive, all the boos, curses, and crusades were vented down to the side of the San Francisco 49ers, all kinds of ugly foul words were endless, and the buzzing noise was like a locust plague passing through, overwhelming.
This time, the home fans pointed the finger at the away team, especially Lu Ke, who had just blown the horn of counterattack in this wave of attacks, and became the focus of concentrated attacks.
When the first discriminatory words sounded, it seemed to open a door, and countless negative words poured down like a tidal wave, and those ugly and ugly words were so unbearable that the 49ers' offensive and defensive teams resting on the sidelines could no longer listen to them.
Logan didn't hold back after all, his fiery temper exploded instantly, smashed the kettle on the grass fiercely, turned around and pointed at the away fans behind him and scolded, the red ears and red ears, the bruised tendons, and the appearance of foaming at the mouth were really terrifying, if the two sides stood face to face at this time, I was afraid that a war would be inevitable.
But the terrible thing is that in front of the crowd of away fans, Logan's voice is completely a drop in the bucket, unable to form an effective confrontation, in that hateful dark red wave, Logan was completely devoured in an instant, like a giant beast, opened its bloody mouth, and the surging bloody gas rushed to his face.
After getting off the field, Lu Ke, who was high-fived with the coaching staff, immediately noticed Logan, who was on the verge of losing control, and the expressions of the other friends in the offensive and defensive groups were really not very good.
Immediately, Lu Ke rushed forward quickly, grabbed Logan in time, and hit Logan hard with his shoulder, "Calm down!" Calm down! Looking at Logan's red eyes, Lu Ke roared loudly, "I said, grass/them!" Let them all get out of the way! The best way to shut them up is to score a touchdown! One touchdown after another! Let all this trash talk in the audience shut their mouths to death! ”
"The worse the trash, the better our job is. They are starting to feel weak, they are starting to be afraid, this is a bunch of shameless cowards! We deserve this kind of treatment, and that's the best reward for us! Lu Ke roared frantically, not only at Logan, but also turned his head to look at the other friends around him, "Remember, this is a compliment to us!" Prove that we succeeded, succeeded in them off! ”
As a person who was discriminated against, Lu Ke was more angry and excited than anyone else, but before him, Logan and his teammates were impulsive, which calmed him down.
They can form a confrontation, they can roll up their sleeves and scold each other, they can even fight with their fists, but against 60,000 fans, they really don't have much chance of winning; What's more, Lu Ke is not only facing 60,000 fans, but also the discrimination and prejudice brought about by the entire social culture.
The best way to fight back is always the absolute strength on the sports field.
Win after win until they shut up, and if one is not enough, then two, or not enough, just one more! Just like in this game, since two passing touchdowns and two running touchdowns are still not enough, let's have a few more!
Turning around, facing his teammates, behind him was the mighty dark red sea, the surging curses obscured the clouds, and it seemed that even the sun was dimmed, but Lu Ke's figure was not timid at all, but straightened his waist and raised his right hand high, "Now, they are calling us to perform even better, let's use one touchdown after another, let them all shut their mouths!" ”
At this moment, Lu Ke's body burst out with an indomitable and unbending terrifying momentum, even Logan couldn't help but be stunned, and all the anger calmed down like this; Instead, there was a surge of excitement and enthusiasm that I couldn't wait to get back into the game.
Raising his head again and looking at the distorted face behind him, Logan finally understood the weight of Lu Ke's words, and his emotions calmed down slightly, but looking at the provocative faces behind him, he was still inevitably angry.
Then, Logan saw Lu Ke's raised right hand, spread out his right hand, and turned it into a flat palm, which was the number "five", and it was also a slap in the face, as if to indicate that since the home fans were calling for more shame, then he would not hesitate to fulfill their wishes.
Then, with a flip of the palm, it tightened into a fist again, leaving only one finger.
Middle finger.
The slender and straight middle finger, vigorous and powerful, like a simple bamboo, stands vigorously and resolutely towards the sky, the simplest but most effective to give a counterattack!
Logan couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and all his anger vanished, because he knew that this war was not over yet!
Inside the stadium, the commotion between the visiting players and the home fans attracted a lot of attention, and the referees on the pitch and the commentators outside the stadium noticed the unexpected situation and frequently projected their eyes.
Everyone knows that the Chinese-American quarterback is a ticking time bomb that sooner or later will detonate all kinds of racist controversies. Even in 2011, when the proportion of whites in the quarterback position is significantly higher than that of blacks, it still causes related debates from time to time, not to mention the fact that there is a yellow man for the first time in the world.
The only question is, when, in what way, and how?
After most of the season of calm, I didn't expect it to ignite and detonate in Arizona.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, at a loss, not knowing what to do, everyone seemed cautious and cautious in their words; Not everyone is in a hurry, though.
At the same time, Lech Steinberg, who was standing in the VIP room of the away team, breathed a sigh of relief.
Regarding Lu Ke's Chinese identity, this is like an elephant in the room, and the entire North American society knows that racial discrimination against Asians exists objectively, and no one can avoid it or deny it; However, before the official outbreak, everyone was reluctant to mention it, as if as long as they continued to ignore it, the matter would not break out.
It's like an elephant in a room. Everybody could see it, it was so big, so big, so threatening; But it is so docile, so silent, so quiet. Everyone pretends not to see and avoid talking, and the elephant does not move; Over time, people began to get used to its presence and take everything for granted.
Until one day, the elephant became angry, and disaster struck.
This is true not only about racial discrimination in the Asian community, but also about school violence, gun control, police brutality and many other social issues, elephants have always existed, but no one was willing to uncover this fact before the outbreak.
Today, the elephant is finally angry, and people can't continue to talk nonsense with their eyes open. This is not a petty fight by Charles Davis, nor is it an analysis of the personal remarks of a commentator, but a confrontation and insult from above the court, and more importantly, from the general perception of society that things must be taken seriously.
After signing Lu Ke, Lech was waiting for this day, and now it has finally arrived, and the war has begun, there is a war on the field, and another war off the field. Lech began to arrange in an orderly and unhurried manner.
Since they are ready to start a war, then he gives them a war!
