Quiet, dull, depressing.

The entire locker room was filled with a suffocating silence, and there was no eye contact between the players. The little energy that had been gathered through daily training was completely defeated by the Carolina Panthers in the first half, in a way that had no power to fight back.

“31:0”.

Although in the second quarter, the Carolina Panthers themselves made some unnecessary mistakes, and the Green Bay Packers also completed some beautiful defenses, which prevented the visiting team from further widening the score gap; but the bloody zero-stop in the first half, the gap behind four touchdowns still tells a cold and cruel reality:

The spiritual victory law has no way to help achieve victory.

After losing to the New Orleans Saints helplessly, the Green Bay Packers suffered a collapsed humiliation of a clean half-time penalty, and were suppressed from offense to defense. Their performance like sleepwalking could not form an effective confrontation at all. The mistakes and the yellow flag made the first half fragmented.

It's like a nightmare that can't wake up.

So, confusion and despair hit their hearts again: maybe, they really are not strong; maybe, their season is indeed over.

"Bang!"

The door of the locker room was knocked open hard, and the fierce and rude sound made the doorman moan in pain, as if there was only a thread from the fall apart.

A loud and heavy sound exploded in his ears. Many players were startled and raised their heads with conditioned reflexes. Then they saw Lu Yiqi's solemn face, with a powerful momentum sweeping across thousands of troops in his eyes, suppressing them in a mighty manner, and his eyes lowered one after another.

"Raise your head!"

Lu Yiqi scolded him sternly, but there was no reaction in the locker room. He couldn't help but raise his voice again, "Look up all!"

"Look at yourself!"

"Look at your teammates!"

"Look at your eyes and expressions at this moment!"

"If you can still find a trace of unwillingness or shame, if you can still see a trace of anger or dissatisfaction, then it can prove that you are alive, otherwise you are all a group of dead people. There is no life, no fighting spirit, no pride, no vitality, just a group of walking dead."

Rogers's deeply buried head slowly raised, and at first glance, he saw Nelson's clear and firm eyes, and a sense of shame arose, which made him avoid his eyes in a mess again; but this time, his head did not lower it, but stubbornly turned to the side.

Woodson covered his head with a towel. He didn't want to pay attention to Lu Yiqi at all, but his body movements were ahead of his brain consciousness. He pulled off the towel. Looking at Hawke's straight back, which was so straight that he was almost broken, he immediately made his curled shoulders become extremely cowardly.

"If you are going to end the season like this, for me, there is no problem, I can quit my job and leave, and then go back to the NCAA field to continue working hard, and my life can still be passed. Believe me, I can live a good life; but what about you?"

"This game! This season! It's a page on your resume anyway! Your performance is a mark that will never be gone! It proves your professional attitude! It proves how you deal with difficulties - a coward who escapes? Or a brave warrior?"

"I know you are not college students driven by enthusiasm. You are all professional players with millions of checks. Everyone present is worth more than me. No one needs to pay attention to me, and no one needs to do their best because of a few words. You are no longer children."

"I know, I know. It should be said that I know better than you: your performance is not worthy of the checks you get every month."

"Because you are not worthy of the jersey you are on!"

Wow!

Driver suddenly stood up. He didn't like Lu Yiqi's way of speaking, as if he had never done anything, which insulted his personality.

But Driver suppressed his emotions and said nothing, but just looked at Lu Yiqi with a wide eyebrow, bursting out a cannibalistic look, expressing his dissatisfaction.

Immediately afterwards, Hawke and Nelson also stood up suddenly - not against Lu Yiqi, but against Driver, staring at Driver without any weakness, and launching a confrontation with practical actions.

As the atmosphere in the locker room became tense and was about to break out.

Lu Yiqi ignored Hawke and Nelson, but looked at Driver's eyes, "What? Feeling humiliation? Is he feeling guilty? Is his conscience tingling? I think you still have no sense of shame, and your conscience has long been completely swallowed by money and fame!"

"Don't look at me! If you still care, you should listen to the sounds outside! You should listen to the sounds of Blue Castle Stadium at this moment!"

Without saying anything more, Lu Yiqi turned around and pushed open the locker room door again. The noisy and noisy sounds roared like a waterfall, filling the entire locker room instantly, and ripples faintly stirred up on his eardrums.

"On, packer!!"

"On, packer!!"

Neat and uniform! Deafening! Earth-shaking!

The waves of support, which are comparable to the tsunami of mountains and tsunamis, are stirring layer by layer. There is no need to walk out of the locker room. If you close your eyes, you can imagine that the surging golden-green ocean is standing up collectively, shouting for support at the top of your lungs, and cheering for help. The surging passion is conveyed through the sound!

boom!

Boom boom!

The sound of cracking stones through the clouds was constantly stirring throughout the Blue Fort Stadium, shouting with the heart, soul and life:

This is their faith! This is their life! This is their persistence!

No matter what happens, they will always be guarding here! Players can leave; coaches can be replaced; managers can be fired... However, fans will never leave them to protect the Blue Fort Stadium in Green Bay, and even the financial crisis has not been able to defeat this land.

Simple and hardworking packers support the team with their practical actions. They poured all their enthusiasm and dreams on this stadium, accompanying the ups and downs of the team. As long as their lives continue for a day and their hearts are still beating, their faith will not be extinguished.

Amid the cheers and shouts of support, the silence in the locker room was so embarrassing and so ironic—

As Lu Yiqi said, they are not worthy of their own checks, and they are even less worthy of these support.

At this time, inside and outside the Blue Fort Stadium, all residents of Green Bay town stood up, without missing a single floor, including Leonard and other old fans, who were guarding the "bar", stood up silently, straightened their backs, and proved a truth with their own practical actions:

Even if they die, they will fight to the last moment and then stand to welcome their ending.

The shouts gathered together in a mighty way.
Chapter completed!
