Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 846: The First in History
2018 NFL regular season MVP winner, Levi.

The result of this selection not only changed the history of the NFL, but also the history of the four major sports leagues in North America. Even on a global scale, it was unprecedented and the first time in the world. It finally broke away from the field of competitive sports and went out of the circle, triggering a wave of heated discussions.

Make history.

Taylor Swift: "Congratulations, congratulations on making history! You deserve all the praise 100%, you have earned it with your actions! @Levi."

Rafael Nadal, "This is Levi's moment and he deserves all the praise and glory."

Prince William: "This is a historic moment. I sincerely hope that Levi and the Kansas City Chiefs can come to Wembley next season."

Liu Xiang, "What I said in Athens in 2004 can also be applied to Levi now. He has once again proved that those prejudices are stupid."

Shohei Ohtani: "Levi is my role model and my motivation to move forward. I hope to have the opportunity to exchange some experiences with him face to face in the future."

Jack Nicholson, "Levi makes football look a lot more fun. Who knows, maybe one day I'll go to Arrowhead Stadium to watch a game."

Leonardo DiCaprio: "I don't watch football, but Levi is the only exception. Did you see his performance in the overtime of the AFC Championship Game?"

Cristiano Ronaldo: "@Levi, respect, admiration, 100% respect, you deserve it."

Lewis Hamilton: "Levi has proven with his actions that everything is possible in competitive sports. He has endowed competitive sports with a unique charm."

Jose Mourinho: "This day should have come a long time ago, but it has only happened now, and it is still too late. But better late than never, Levi deserves this honor."

Rihanna, "Awesome! @Levi."

Jennifer Lawrence: "Wow, I can't believe it. I can't believe it. Have you watched the highlights of Levi's games? He makes football look sexy."

Katy Perry: "Levi? He looks incredible, so should I start paying attention to football now?"

Stephen Curry: "I voted for Levi to the Pro Bowl. I'm a fan."

LeBron James: "That's my brother."

Manny Pacquiao, "Oh, what a shame, it's really a shame, Levi should have tried boxing, I believe he can have a place in the boxing world, of course, in the field of football, I believe he has not yet realized his full potential. I still look forward to his future."

Frenzy, total frenzy.

The above is just the tip of the iceberg. Opinion leaders from different industries and fields have joined this craze, including society, politics, culture, internet celebrities, etc.; millions of ordinary people cannot contain their excitement and joy, igniting a wave of heat.

History is happening.

American football has always been considered North America's own carnival, even though all 32 NFL teams are among the top 50 of Forbes' list of the world's most valuable professional clubs, and occupy half of the top 10, proving their value with unparalleled attitude.

However, on a global scale, football remains the unshakable number one sport; even rugby has its own World Cup and is gaining market share in full swing in Africa, Oceania and other regions.

(American) football has always been ridiculed as North America's own sport——

Entertain yourself.

It is precisely because of this that Goodell has been trying to open up the global market. The market value of football in North America has been almost fully tapped. If the league wants to go further, it must go global.

One of the things is promoting flag football into the Olympics. In simple terms, flag football means that players are not allowed to tackle or hit each other. All they have to do is take off the flags tied around their waists to defend, which reduces collisions and confrontations and reduces risks. Other rules are basically the same as American football, showing the strategic charm of football in all aspects.

Over the years, Goodell's work has achieved great results, which is also an important reason why his support rate among team owners remains high.

Benefits and values.

However, although rugby's influence in the world continues to rise, we still have to admit that there is still a long way to go. Compared with global sports such as football, basketball, racing, tennis, golf, etc., rugby still has a weak mass base and its influence in other sports is far less.

Every sport has its own iconic figure, a name that is equivalent to a sport, breaking down barriers and having a profound impact on other areas of social life, but rugby does not have that.

In the 2018 and 2019 seasons, even legendary league icons like Manning and Brady have very weak international and cross-field influence. It cannot be said that they have no influence at all, but they are still not ranked, and their popularity index is approaching zero.

until now--

Levi.

Not only is he the first Asian regular season MVP in the history of the four major North American sports leagues, but he is also the first in the five major European football leagues.

Strong breakthrough!

Regardless of whether you like football or not, or even if you have never heard of it, everyone is caught up in this storm without exception.

The situation that Goodell had been brewing, the moment the league had been waiting for, came into being in an unexpected way and finally broke through.

Perhaps the historic moment that football has been waiting for and searching for is here.

Everything is just like Roger Federer breaking down barriers for tennis, and just like Tiger Woods bringing golf into the public eye.

Everything is just like Michael Schumacher made F1 racing enter the lives of millions of ordinary people; just like David Beckham made women start to become interested in football; just like Michael Jordan made people realize for the first time that the commercial value of basketball is more than that.

A person can find the right opportunity in the tide of the times and then use a lever to move the earth.

The place was bustling with people, and all eyes were drawn to it.

This time, it is real, a huge and vigorous frenzy has exploded, and the eyes of all walks of life around the world are all focused on this moment——

I looked forward to it again and again, waited and waited, but I never expected that the first breakthrough of Asians in the European and American world would be in the world of rugby.

Moreover, he is a running back.

Although everything is incredible, only after truly understanding it can you realize that it is far beyond your imagination, and the shock can never stop.

For the first time in history, the sport of rugby has become popular. Everyone is discussing rugby, everyone is an expert, and everyone can share their knowledge and attention. Even accounts sharing rugby knowledge on knowledge payment platforms have sprung up overnight like mushrooms after a rain.

What is traffic?
This is traffic. From being a dull and ignored person to being a popular expert, all it takes is a glorious moment that makes history.

Imagine that even people who knew nothing about rugby felt the shock; what about those in the industry who were truly familiar with rugby?

Impact, ten times, a hundred times!
