Actually, Bart had never read "Sense and Sensibility" and had no idea what the story was about; but he believed that whatever the original was like, they definitely didn't suffer as he did, nearly tearing him into two parts.
All this ti, Bart had considered himself a man of reason, one hundred percent rational, and would definitely be a "strong T" on the MBTI test; but after being proven wrong ti and again this season and experiencing repeated despair, he began to question his life—
Maybe, he wasn't a T?
Although the Arican League division ga had ended days ago, when he closed his eyes, he could still see Li Wei's One-handed Catch that completed the Wanfu Mary, over and over again, even looping endlessly on its own.
It was suffocating.
"...Blair?"
The call ca, and Bart realized he had closed his eyes again.
Wait, was he reminiscing just now?
Could it be that he was actually an M?
Cough, cough.
In haste, Bart coughed to cover his panic and quickly glanced at the screen:
It displayed the prediction results from each professional.
In the National Conference finals, seven people supported the Minnesota Vikings, and three supported the Philadelphia Eagles.
In the Arican League finals, eight people supported the Jacksonville Jaguars, one supported the Kansas City Chiefs, and one didn't vote.
It was one-sided.
One look would tell you that the sole person choosing the Kansas City Chiefs was Lawson, the unwavering "Li Wei Fan" of the season, who, despite facing a harsh six-ga losing streak mid-season, took it sweetly.
Now, it was just Bart left.
About the National Conference finals, Bart chose reason, standing with the Minnesota Vikings and with the majority; but what about the Arican League finals?
His breath montarily caught—
Forget it!
"...Kansas City Chiefs are the champions!"
Without warning, Bart raised both hands and cheered as he stood up.
A second later, Bart could feel the entire studio's eyes focusing on him.
For a mont, Bart wavered—he should trust the data, trust the sand-table deductions, trust objective judgnts, trust rational analysis.
After all, Football is a team sport.
Even if soone could weather the storm and rewrite the ga, it should be elite quarterbacks like Brady and Rodgers; if not, then excellent quarterbacks like Roethlisberger, Little Manning, and Flacco. It shouldn't be a rookie writing a Hollywood fairytale.
Yet.
His cheeks still tingled with pain, having been taphorically slapped from the regular season through to the playoffs. If he continued being stubborn, he felt he was about to develop a Heart Demon—
The thought of possibly having nightmares every night about Li Wei made him shiver; a jolt shot from the soles of his feet straight to his forehead, his scalp tingling.
Moreover, he had seen all the comnts on social dia mocking him as the "Li Wei special edition of Bailey."
Isn't there a saying, "If you hate him, perish together with him"?
So, by choosing the Kansas City Chiefs, did it an that the outco of the Arican League finals could be different?
He could.
Therefore, the hesitation and struggle were only brief, and then he grew firm again.
"Kansas City Chiefs are the champions!"
Bart's eyes flashed with determination.
"Not just the Arican League champions, I think the Kansas City Chiefs are also the strongest contenders for the Super Bowl champions, and they have already secured a favorable position."
Studio: ???
Is it them who are crazy, or is it Bart who has lost his mind?
Unbelievably, Bart and Lawson beca the only two analysts in the "Inside the League" show who believed the Kansas City Chiefs could defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars, which caused a social dia explosion after the broadcast.
Wait, what's going on? Did they miss an episode?
For a mont, netizens didn't know whether to be surprised that Bart and Lawson had surprisingly co together to support the Kansas City Chiefs or that the Chiefs who had just beaten the New England Patriots to advance weren't favored, sparking a bustling, all-out discussion.
But if discussions and clashes were just netizens and the dia entertaining themselves, it would be too dull; the real interest needed the players to face off.
But how?
"Bortles vs Smith" in a quarterback duel?
Bortles is a down-to-earth and honest man, Smith a kindly and understanding elder brother — it's impossible to expect any trash-talking between them.
"Fournette vs Li Wei" in a rookie running back clash?
This matchup was indeed worth hyping up; the rancor between the two players had been long-standing, carried over from the NCAA all the way to the NFL, twisting and turning, until they unexpectedly faced each other in the ultimate battle in the Arican League finals.
This was a great story and also the focus of the upcoming ga.
However, Fournette was not very articulate, and despite his true disdain for Li Wei, he struggled but couldn't articulate his reasoning; the few words he managed to spit out were ineffective attacks. Discover exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire
As for that sly fox Li Wei, if the reporters were not careful, they might end up dragging themselves into it too, they had long since learned not to provoke Li Wei lightly, no one wanted to draw the fire towards the dia itself.
Perhaps, should it start with the two coaches?
At that mont, the dia struck gold as a surprising figure appeared.
Jalen Ramsey, selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars with the fifth pick of the 2016 draft, playing as a cornerback.
In just two seasons, Ramsey had grown to beco a top-tier cornerback in the league and had beco a critical factor for the Jaguars' defensive group to take off this season —
Over two seasons, with 128 tackles, six interceptions, 31 pass deflections, and one pick-six.
His performance was undoubtedly top-level, rapidly becoming a leading figure among the league's new generation of defensive players.
With a stature of 6.1 feet (185 cm) and 208 pounds (95 kg), Ramsey had many similarities to Richard Sherman, the core mber of the Seattle Seahawks blowing corps, not excluding their similar playing styles and continuous trash-talking on and off the field.
Although young, Ramsey had already beco the league's most eye-catching trash-talking rookie.
Just before the wildcard playoff ga against the Buffalo Bills, Ramsey uttered his most famous line:
"It's not personal; I'm just saying all the quarterbacks present are trash."
Luck, Goff, Roethlisberger, Flacco, Little Manning, Ryan, and more quarterbacks were all caught in the crossfire of Ramsey's barrage.
The key point was that he walked the talk.
The quarterbacks who were blasted by Ramsey had a total of five interceptions by him during the regular season, and the quarterback passer rating towards Ramsey's side was also kept at a re 69.0 —
Failing grade.
With talent and capability, that trash talk only made the opponents shut up, just like Larry Bird of the NBA's Boston Celtics.
In the 2017 season, during the Jaguars' ga against the Cincinnati Bengals, AJ Green, a well-known gentleman acknowledged by the league both on and off the field, lost his composure due to Ramsey's continuous trash-talking tactics and landed punches in an ongoing harassive mouth battle.
Originally, reporters hadn't even considered Ramsey because as a cornerback and running back, they might not even et once in the entire ga; otherwise, why would the dia, which loves to fan flas, miss out?
But no one expected Ramsey to take the initiative to fire the shots —
Here it cos, the explosive mont has finally arrived.
