Comeback 606 family party "Sorry, Charlize, can you get me another beer? Thank you, thank you so much." Old Jack was sitting on the sofa at this time, with a bright smile on his face, he was busy in the kitchen. Charlize yelled, and then watched Charlize walk over with two bottles of beer and put them on the coffee table. Old Jack expressed his thanks again.

Charlize looked at the kind old Jack with a smile on her face, "It's just a matter of hand." When she stood up, she gave Hugo a sneak peek. The two people's eyes crossed together, and Charlize seemed to be there. Asked, "Are you okay?" The corner of her gaze was obviously pointing at Adam who was sitting on the other side of the sofa.

Hugo hooked the corner of his mouth slightly, saying that he was fine, which made Charlize a sigh of relief, and then walked towards the kitchen with a relaxed smile.

This year’s Christmas is indeed very lively. Not only did the Taylor family come, but Adam came, but Charlize and Alex also didn’t go home because they had jobs at the end of the year. Karl also stayed, but he died in glory. The other team members abandoned Hugo and went to Canada to participate in an underground rock and roll party, which also made the family lively.

Molly-Taylor is leading the daughter-in-law Michelle, Samora, who is excellent in cooking, and Charlize who is helping, are preparing the Christmas dinner, while the others who can’t help are sitting in the hall, watching A thrilling football Christmas game.

Rugby is known as the national sport of the United States. Whether it is basketball that has attracted worldwide attention, baseball, which has a very broad mass base, or world sports football, it cannot match the charm of rugby in the United States. American football is the real hegemon. .

Every time it is a football game broadcast, all other TV shows must be sidelined. The ratings are simply sweeping, and the Super Bowl matchup in February every year is also known as the "American Spring Festival Gala" in February 1993. It attracted the attention of 130 million viewers in the United States. Michael Jackson, who was in charge of the midfield performance, was the highest viewership rate in TV history, attracting 1.5 billion viewers worldwide. This record is even As of 1j2014, it has not been able to be broken.

There are four major professional leagues in the United States, namely ice hockey, baseball, basketball and rugby. Of these, only rugby can be regarded as a true national madness. In addition to the Super Bowl, football games on Thanksgiving and Christmas are also a frenzy of ratings, which can be called a place for the whole family to enjoy. Since Major League Baseball (child b) ended in October, and the National Hockey League (nhl) truce on Christmas Day, only the National Basketball League (nba) and the National Football League (nfl) have Christmas games.

But even the NBA, which is popular all over the world, still has to retreat in front of the nfl. Although the NBA will arrange Christmas battles every year, and will arrange particularly exciting duels, but the game time is often relatively early, usually ends before 8 o'clock, professional arrangements Just to stagger the nfl Christmas battle that separates at 8:20!

However, nfl is very special. Its game days are usually Saturdays and Sundays. Later, there was a Thursday night game because of Thanksgiving. However, it is impossible to determine the time on the 25th of Christmas every year. This makes nfl’s Christmas battles "irregularly" held, and only occurs when Christmas Day is a weekend.

Christmas this year is Saturday, so the nfl Christmas War was born. The reason why the Christmas War is so exciting is that the NFL regular season generally ends in December, and the playoffs start in January, and the final winner enters the Super Bowl in February. In other words, if the Christmas War can be held, it will be the last week of the regular season or the penultimate week. This has a decisive effect on the competition for tickets to the playoffs, and it is often tragic.

This year’s Christmas game was even more exciting. The two teams were the Houston Oilers and the San Francisco 49ers. These two teams are the league’s top teams. At this time, they are also competing for the championship position in their respective divisions. Both are also strong contenders for the Super Bowl, which makes this Christmas battle look more like a battle for kings.

"Oh, shit!", "God **** it!..." A group of lamentable voices sounded everywhere, obviously dissatisfied with the team's performance just now, and Hugo almost jumped up, "Yang is sure he knows. What is he doing? He completely made the shotgun formation just now look like a joke, shit!"

Hugo’s words were recognized by a circle of people around him, Alex directly provoked it, holding the beer and waving it, “Is he sleepwalking now? Does he know who his opponent is, grass, wake up? , Steve, please, whoever saves this lost lamb, he is terrible."

What they are discussing now is the San Francisco 49ers quarterback Steve Young (steve.). The San Francisco 49ers are currently one of the league’s veteran teams. They have won the Super Bowl four times, and they are striving for a row this year. In the third year, they won their own division... the National League West Division... won a better position for the playoffs, but their opponent Houston Oilers was stronger. Today's game was very hard, and Steve Yi Yang made mistakes again and again, which made people have to swear.

In fact, the performance of the Houston Oilers today is also very bad. It is estimated that the huge pressure of the Christmas War has far exceeded the level of the regular season, and it is even tighter than the playoffs. This makes the performance of the two teams unsightly. It looks like a mess and makes people feel helpless. But precisely because of this, they even more hope that the team they support... The San Francisco 49ers can rise.

Los Angeles’ enthusiasm for its own football team seems not so fierce. The Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Raiders have only a handful of home games in the City of Angels with more than 70% attendance. In fact, the main reason is not that Los Angeles does not like it. Rugby, they are also crazy about rugby. Both college league and high school league rugby teams are sought after. The attendance rate of college league games even exceeds that of tnfl teams. The main reason is that Los Angeles is a well-known immigrant city. The residents here are more willing to own the team of their origin, but Los Angeles does not have a native football team. This is a flaw.

Relatively speaking, the 49ers who have been stationed in San Francisco since 1946 have won the hearts of many California fans. Especially in today's game, the opponent was Houston, Texas, so all the men in the house fell to the ground and supported the San Francisco 49ers.

Faced with Hugo and Alex’s impatience, Adam couldn’t stand it anymore, and he yelled, “You should look at the pocket protection. The protection just now was too bad. There was no time for Steve to think...”

"Yes, this is my key point. The focus of the shotgun formation is to have the quarterback pass the ball, pass the ball, the running back directly does not use it, then the quarterback should be highly focused before passing the ball. , Instead of waiting after receiving the ball and then looking around in a panic." Hugo said very depressed, he was obviously very dissatisfied with Steve Young's performance just now.

Sure enough, what Hugo said about Adam is no more. He can only say, "The two quarterbacks are not in good shape today. We have to look at their running ball. Maybe today we have to rely on running ball to decide. Winner or loser."

"Damn God." Hugo also agreed with Adam's words, complaining depressed.

After crossing over to the United States, Hugo has another special gain, that is, he has also become one of the rugby fans. In fact, he has watched very popular rugby in China before, but it is not in vain. He has time. They will watch the game, but they will not abandon other things for the sake of the game and wait for the live broadcast. For example, in the Super Bowl, Hugo only watched three live broadcasts before crossing. But now it’s different. The American football atmosphere is indeed very strong. It is worthy of being the most popular sport. The popularization rate is very high. Even as a leisure activity, it will play two games, just catch the ball with baseball. Same.

From being interested in football to being crazy about rugby, Hugo relied on this interest to truly integrate himself into this cultural society. Of course, the profound influence of Lancaster's soul on Chen Hugo cannot be ignored.

Although Hugo and Adam were arguing just now, unexpectedly, the exchanges between the two have increased, which is really rare. Before that, Hugo had been worrying about how he should communicate with Adam. Otherwise, every time two people call, there will be a lot of silence. Even if they are not embarrassed, they will become embarrassed. Any two people will become intimate. , Common hobbies are very necessary.

Today, Hugo accidentally discovered that rugby may be the bridge, so that the future topics of him and Adam will be much richer. This is also one of the biggest gains of the Christmas war.

"Guys, it’s time to eat! The game has just started three minutes ago, and you guys started ranting here, so what are you going to do when entering the fourth quarter?" Molly walked over in person and greeted everyone. When she got up, it was obvious that she had long been used to such scenes.

Sure enough, this wave of the San Francisco 49ers' offense came back without success. In the end, it could only be abandoning the kick, which caused the men to become irritable again, and then one by one was pulled by Molly and walked towards the restaurant. Adam was there and babbling Hugo, "Steve’s pass today was really terrible, but the pass was not played. It’s a mess~www.readwn.com~Hugo smiled. Responding, but at this moment, the phone rang, and Hugo looked around, then raised his voice and said, "I'll answer. "Then patted Adam's arm, turned and ran towards the phone. Adam glanced at the place where Hugo had just photographed himself, and then tugged at the corner of his mouth. He could not help but lighten his steps and walked towards the kitchen. .

Hugo walked to the phone and picked it up, "Good evening, this is the home of Theron, Lancaster, and Lorraine."

However, the other end of the phone did not hear the usual answer. It was just a moment of silence. Hugo originally thought it was a telephone signal problem. This kind of thing was not unusual in the early nineties, but then Hugo thought about it again. He has received this type of phone call at least three times in the past two months, and Charlize and Alex have also mentioned it, so things are strange.

So Hugo picked up the phone that was about to hang up again, and thought for a while, "Joe? Is that you?"
