In America, the winner takes all.

Chapter 131 Muscle Showdown (14)

Early morning, at the home of Ethan O'Connor in the San Fernando Valley.

"Drip drip!"

The electronic clock makes a crisp sound.

Ethan opened his eyes and looked at Charlize Theron, who was sleeping beside her. In order to meet the needs of her appearance in the movie, she had changed her hair to short hair, which was now a slicked back style.

Ethan looked at the side of her face. She had some baby fat cheeks, which made her face look plump and plump. If she could use one word to describe it - tender.

Ethan reached out his hand and gently stroked her hair.

Charlize slowly opened his eyes and yawned with an unknown smell.

"Are you hungry?" She looked at Ethan.

Without waiting for Ethan to respond, Charlize nodded to herself and prepared to have breakfast, sausage and two fried eggs.

"Wait, I'm talking about hunger in the real sense." Ethan rarely took the initiative to stop her behavior.

Then Ethan touched her head and stood up, going to the bathroom.

Because he was too tall, Ethan had to stand back slightly or bend his legs slightly to see his entire face in the mirror.

My face in the mirror now looks rougher than when I first time traveled. I have been exposed to the wind and sun all day long, and my skin has also been tanned a lot. I prefer Lisa. This is actually a "rich person's skin color", because among people In my opinion, only rich people have time to bask in the sun all day long.

There is a thick beard on the chin and around the mouth, which undoubtedly makes Ethan's face look tougher and more old-fashioned. As for his eyes, they are a little less clear and a little more calm.

Ethan opened the mirror, took out the shaving foam from the shelf, and applied it to his face.

As the razor moved, Ethan's face gradually became clearer and returned.

"We have to win the game today too."

He patted his cheek.

As for yesterday's meeting with Jennifer, not much happened. Her bandmates barged in after a while, disrupting the atmosphere.As for Jennifer, she went home after school.

·
At the same time, in the area surrounding the BHHS school, the Norman team members got up one after another. The wild boar was wearing slippers and walking down the stairs. The stairs creaked and became overwhelmed...

The wild boar came to the restaurant and found that his father and mother had prepared breakfast and the table was full.

Europeans and Americans generally don't pay much attention to lunch. One or two sandwiches at noon are enough, and the corresponding breakfast is very rich.

On the other side, Cooper is still training every morning.

The flea is dressed and ready to go out.

As for Ethan, he was also enjoying his first steak of the day. He usually eats five meals a day.One meal in the morning, one at noon, one in the afternoon, one in the evening, plus a late night snack. For a huge body, coupled with strenuous exercise, the body needs to replenish a lot of energy.

Halfway through the meal, Mia was fully dressed and put on makeup. Logically speaking, she wouldn't get up so early.

"Because today is a special day for you, I specifically asked for leave today." Mia explained with a smile.

Not only Mia, but also William called Ethan early in the morning.

"Beat your opponent, Ethan, I believe you can do it." He cheered Ethan on the phone.

Next is Catherine, you know she also has a game today.

"Although I'm not in Los Angeles, my heart will always be with you!"

Judging from the unprecedented reaction of the family, it is enough to see the importance of this game.

Even the court warm-up time was much earlier than before, starting an hour in advance, and there were even performances by the cheerleading teams of both teams before the game.The kick-off time is not the usual evening, but kick-off in the afternoon.

"Everyone, the battle horn has sounded. This is a real war for us!" Ethan looked at everyone, his encouraging posture was actually much more relaxed than before.

This is also based on the strength of both sides. Although the two teams are far apart and have never played against each other in history, Ethan has been teammates with Tommy before and has some understanding of the strength he has shown. There are more Importantly, in the odds for this national finals.At this time, the Normans had risen to the bottom third, while Tommy's Manny High School was only in the bottom 9.It can be regarded as a team that is in the middle of the pack among all participating teams, and the team's ability is mainly reflected in its quarterback Tommy.

However, Ethan felt that the Normans were obviously overly optimistic. In fact, they should be ranked fifth or sixth in terms of pure hard power.

The reason is naturally his style of play and the fact that the Normans have not lost in history this school year, which makes the team obviously over-reputed. However, the players on the team also know this and have not slacked off at all. .And Thomas has also made sufficient preparations.Considering all the above factors, the challenges faced this time are not as good as those at Bergen High School before.

"We saw the Norman players running out of the tunnel, and the one at the front was our old friend! Our dear Ethan O'Connor! Niekro's Tyrannosaurus Rex!"

Ethan looked over and saw that since it was the afternoon, the school had not yet finished its cultural classes, there were not many students in the stands, and there were even fewer fans in the surrounding areas, because it was a working day, and seats were occupied. The rate was only half, but all the parents of the Norman team were present.

"Even on ESPN, Ethan O'Connor's name is being mentioned more and more widely. As far as I know, there are even several coaches and analysts in the NFL who are paying close attention to Ethan O'Connor, let alone the NCAA. With the high school team, Ethan O'Connor has injected a new style into the quarterback position - a powerful quarterback, with strength that is not inferior to or even stronger than the forwards, together with a huge body and a solid footwork. This greatly enhances the stability in the pocket. This is a tactical innovation that will bring about a series of chain reactions..." analyst Joe Sisman said.

He is one of ESPN's ace commentators, a former Washington Redskins quarterback who led the team to the Super Bowl championship in 1983. However, he retired two years later due to a serious leg injury and now plays with Mike Mike Patrick and Mark Malone form a commentary team responsible for explaining ESPN's flagship program Sunday Night Football, which is the most watched sports program in the United States. One of the most watched football games, broadcast live.

This show has an average audience of more than 70 million all year round, which is not even weaker than the Oscar ceremony. After that, it has surpassed the number (and it has surpassed it by %, mainly because no one watches the Oscars now). You must know that the Oscars are only Once, while Sunday Night Football aired for eighteen weeks.

He was able to appear at the scene because ESPN bought out the TV broadcast rights. Penny and reporters from other TV stations could only stay outside the field at this time and could not interview Ethan in the locker room until after the game.

As one of the ace commentators, Joe Sisman can commentate on this game live. From the side, we can also see the importance ESPN attaches to this game.

As the Hurricanes players came on the stage, Ethan immediately noticed Tommy Fraser who was walking in front.

He seems to be much stronger than the last time we met. To be precise, he is much stronger. Those thighs can almost burst the jersey.

How many steroids does this require?

"Hey, Ethan O'Connor! You're very strong, but I'm just as good as you! I'll beat you the way you do best!"

Tommy said to Ethan while shaking hands.

The two commentators on the scene also discovered the situation on Tommy's side. Joe Sisman immediately said: "Obviously, the two starting quarterbacks are of the same type in terms of physical fitness and style. , this is a special battle between powerful quarterbacks!"

In the routine coin guessing session, Ethan lost again.

Ethan was not surprised by this situation, and even felt lucky. After all, he had won the games where he had lost coins before, which was a good fortune for him.

During the kickoff, Ethan actually saw Tommy standing at the edge of the end zone, which is where only returners would stand.

"It's really interesting. He is copying your previous position-changing tactics." Thomas laughed.

Ethan was unmoved and shook his head at this moment: "Someone can imitate my face, but they can't imitate my body."

"Want to go on the court and compete with him?" Thomas then asked. He even wanted to watch the two people compete passionately.

"It's better not to mess up your tactics." Ethan did not choose to play this time.

What he needs to do is to win Manny High School with ease, rather than actually having a "ring match" with Tommy. He has to focus on his opponent later.Moreover, the schedule is very cruel and there is not much rest time. He needs to conserve enough energy.

"You are becoming more mature and rational." Thomas nodded.

As Mark kicked the ball, Tommy received the ball five yards inside the zone, and the game officially began.

He is a quarterback who is good at rushing the ball. In a sense, he is quite suitable for the position of returner, and it has indeed caused some trouble for the Normans' special teams. You must know that Thomas has indeed targeted the special teams. Adjustments were made to include several main defensive players including Alberto. Previously they were mostly substitutes for the defensive team.

But even so, Tommy's charge was not effectively blocked, and the Hurricanes' special teams team had obviously trained special return tactics in advance.Several team members formed a wedge formation to open a straight channel specifically for Tommy.

"It's a wedge return." Thomas could tell at a glance.

This is a counterattack tactic with a hard bridge and a hard horse, and Tommy only needs to pay attention to the defenders coming from both sides.

In the next second, he stretched one arm forward and pushed down a Norman player who was rushing towards him.

When faced with Alberto's interception, Tomi jumped on the spot, made a volley and rolled sideways, and directly passed Alberto perfectly.

This ultimately led to Tommy of the Hurricanes holding the ball all the way and directly completing the return touchdown!
"It is definitely an unexpected surprise. Tommy Fraser has shown a strong physical fitness that is not inferior to Ethan! He has unparalleled speed and extremely flexible body." Joe Sisman said with great excitement.

Ethan also felt that with the blessing of the medicine, Tommy's physical strength had indeed reached a terrifying level.

Pretty much the same as I was two or three months ago.

But compared to what I am now, it's even less interesting.
