Fist and fist again, after all, the anger still couldn't calm down, gurgling in the chest, erupting like a volcano.

As one of the few Chinese faces on the rugby field, Lu Ke has been working hard to break all kinds of prejudices from small to large. He is constantly proving himself, and constantly proving that Chinese players can still be the masters of the game.

In the past three days of training camp, he thought that he had proved that regardless of skin color race, Chinese players can also be excellent rugby players; but obviously, he still overestimated the seniors of those teams and the players Arrogance and arrogance.

Seattle Seahawks, sooner or later, he will let them know what is really powerful! Also, what is true regret!

Quickly left the corridor and hid in the bathroom. Before feeling out of control, he washed his face with cold water, and the tumbling emotion gradually cooled down. This is just the second interview. Today is a very long day. He needs to calm himself down. To prove himself, to win, to stand on top, he must first enter a team, have a stage, and fight for a chance.

Therefore, he cannot lose his mind.

After a short rest adjustment, Lu Ke returned to the corridor and started today's interview again.

In addition to Cleveland Browns and the Seattle Seahawks, the other 13 teams include the Miami Dolphins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New York Jets, Buffalo Bills and Arizona Cardinals, who have frequently changed quarterback positions in recent years. .

It also includes that the strength of the main quarterback is always unsatisfactory. Every year, the Houston Texans, Tennessee Titans, Chicago Bears need the rookie quarterback.

It also includes the New Orleans Saints, San Diego Lightning, and Indianapolis Colts, who are outstanding quarterbacks but have been considering substitutes.

Finally, unexpectedly but reasonably, the Carolina Panthers holding the No. 1 pick also sent an invitation. Lu Ke is not the only quarterback who has received their invitation to interview. In addition, four quarterbacks have also received invitations. Together with Cam Newton, Carolina has met for a total of six. Quarterback. Obviously, beyond Kam, they are still considering more possibilities.

As for the Green Bay Packers and the 49ers in San Francisco, neither team talked to Lu Ke.

The Packers obviously do n’t need to worry about the quarterback. The head quarterback Aron Rogers is at its peak. They beat the Pittsburgh Steelers on the Super Bowl that just ended in February. They scored the first in team history. With four Super Bowls, they are one of the impossible teams to choose quarterbacks.

The 49ers ’situation is a bit more complicated. The main quarterback Alex-Smith was the 2005 draft pick—the 49ers did not choose Aron Rogers but chose Alex-Smith. However, since 2002, the 49ers have not entered the playoffs for eight consecutive years. The results of that year's draft now seem to be a mistake.

However, perhaps Alex is not the league's top quarterback, but still above average. So, they need quarterbacks, but they don't need quarterbacks so urgently. No interview with Lu Ke, unexpected, but normal.

Although the Packers and 49 people did not invite, but after a full day of interviews, Lu Ke was still very rewarded.

The most active among them is the New Orleans Saints.

Their quarterback coach Joe Lombardi had a very good impression of Lu Ke. They asked Lu Ke's college career, daily training, professional planning, etc. in detail. You can leave.

Then came San Diego Lightning and the Miami Dolphins.

The former quarterback Philip-Rivers (Philip-Rivers) is one of the most solid players in the league, but the lightning has been looking for a more reliable substitute; the latter from the Hall of Fame quarterback Dan-Marino (Dan -Marino) After retiring, he has never been able to find a leader who led the team to victory.

Lightning's attitude is undoubtedly more friendly and friendly. Not only because San Diego is also in California, but it is also one of the areas with the most Chinese immigrants; but because of the Jedi reversal of the Rose Bowl, they have long heard of it. Strictly speaking, before the training camp, they showed interest in Lu Ke. Picking a backup quarterback is far more comfortable and more than picking the main four.

However, the interview in the rookie training camp is only about ten minutes of trial and exchange of initial intentions. Next, two months before the official draft, each team will further collect information, further investigation, and further communication, so today's conversation, the substantive content is very limited, and the result is naturally impossible to judge.

The whole day of conversation continued from eight o'clock in the morning to ten o'clock in the middle of the night, and it never ended. Lu Ke has only participated in fifteen interviews, and he has already felt exhausted; it is unimaginable how the top players who have to participate in the interviews of 32 teams are what it feels like.

Now, Lu Ke is waiting for the last interview today: Washington Redskins.

Washington Redskins is a traditional strong team in the league, three Super Bowl winners and five National League winners. In the past few years, they have always lacked the leadership of a top quarterback, although in 2005 and 2007 All entered the playoffs, but the overall strength of the team is ups and downs, it is difficult to stabilize.

In the past four seasons, they have replaced three head coaches, and the team's lineup has been constantly fluctuating.

Now, their main quarterback Rex-Grossman (Rex-Grossman) is a veteran who entered the league with the 22nd overall pick in the first round in 2003, but the league has worked hard for so many years and is always only a substitute four The level of the point guard, playing better and worse, led the team to a record of six wins and ten losses last year, failed to enter the playoffs.

When people mention teams that need rookie quarterbacks, the Washington Redskins are always on the list. Both the team and the fans believe that they are only missing a top quarterback on the road to the fourth Super Bowl.

This year, Cam Newton is clearly a popular pick for the No. 1 pick, and the Redskins have no chance. But in addition to this, the quarterback worth picking has at least double digits, so the Redskins holding the tenth pick in the first round is eager to move and met many quarterbacks today.

Waiting around forty-five minutes before and after, it was Lu Ke's turn. Under the guidance of the staff, they entered the hotel room, similar layout, similar decoration, similar space, there is always an illusion of deja vu, after a long day of interviews, everyone is slightly tired.

In spite of this, Lu Ke got up and straightened his waist. After completing his self-introduction, he sat down on the sofa in front of him and met the four interviewers.

Sitting on the left side should be the team ’s offensive coach Kyle-Shanahan (Kyle-Shanahan) and defensive coach Jim-Haslett (Jim-Haslett). -Shanahan (Mike-Shanahan), and sitting in front of the team manager Bruce-Allen (Bruce-Allen).

It is worth mentioning that Bruce Allen is also the CEO of the Redskins; Mike Shanahan is Kyle Shanahan's father.

"Thanks for coming to the Redskins interview." It was Bruce who spoke.

As a team manager, master the power of life and death of all personnel of the entire team, and be directly responsible to the boss. It is definitely the most direct manager of the team. However, some team managers like to decentralize and are willing to choose to trust the team's head coach; while some team managers like to control the overall situation, they must do everything by themselves. Bruce seems to be the latter.

"After a long day of interviews, we are all tired, then relax and simply talk." Bruce had a kind smile on his face, and his short gray hair was upright and high under the effect of wax. , Deep vision with a deep and calm composure.

Bruce really seems to be just chatting, saying casually, "You look like a mysterious character, and didn't become a team substitute until the senior year. Why didn't you want to leave UCLA before this? With your Ability, choosing another school may be able to play the main role and win more opportunities for performance. "

As a reporter, observing words and watching is one of the necessary skills. After four years in college, Lu Ke spent a lot of time on the training ground, but he was only a sparring after all. He did n’t need to participate in the team ’s daily games. They also completed the task brilliantly.

Therefore, Lu Ke can feel the temptation in Bruce's words, as well as the weight hidden behind his eyes. This is not uncommon. The superior always inadvertently reveals such a gesture between words and deeds.

"If I say, besides rugby, my studies are also very important. Is this a qualified answer?" Lu Ke replied, with a hint of humor, which made people uneasy.

After a chuckle, Lu Ke said seriously, "I did consider transfer, but for various reasons, the transfer application was not so smooth; on the contrary, at UCLA, I gradually won the opportunity. So, I chose to stay. "

Although not blunt, there is a problem that cannot be ignored in the rugby circle: Chinese identity. Not only the segregation brought by race, but also the shortcomings in physical fitness. This is twofold.

In contrast, in the open areas on the east and west coasts, ethnic integration is closer and more inclusive, and Lu Ke does get more opportunities-but universities on both sides of the strait are also more difficult to enter, such as Harvard University, such as Stanford University , And so on.

Bruce closed his jaw slightly, his eyes showing a look of interest, "I need you to answer me a question seriously. What does victory mean to you? Because, in what you just said, I don't have Hearing the relevant information, it seems that football is just an amateur pastime for you. "

One blow is fatal!
