Bullying is too good at martial arts (181)
[Cha Mu-gyeol’s declaration of “I will participate in the NFL Scouting Combine” draws a different interest.]
[Column Maxwell “Cha Mu-gyeol will never be able to produce a good record.”]
[Suddenly declares participation in the NFL Scouting Combine Is participation possible?]
[Is it a social media aggro or a realistic story? The NFL Secretariat held the key.]
As soon as Mugyeol expressed his intention to participate in the combine, the NFL became noisy this time.
It was a flawless decision that shook the entire sports scene with a word or action, but he had never been active outside of combat sports until now.
Therefore, the desire to participate in the NFL Scouting Combine was unexpected even from the position of the NFL Secretariat.
Thanks to that, an emergency weekend meeting was called in a hurry.
Most of the senior executives sitting at the conference were of the same opinion.
“Let’s do it.”
The American professional sports industry is thoroughly based on market principles.
Anything is possible if you can please the fans.
Just in a line that does not compromise safety!
Participation in the flawless NFL scouting combine will surely become a hot topic.
By itself, the NFL is already taking advantage.
Besides, there was one more thing the NFL executives were looking forward to.
“No matter how great the car is, wouldn’t it be difficult to set a great record at the combine?”
“That’s natural. Hitting people and combining tests are completely different fields.”
“But I don’t know. If you look at the fact that he always ranked first in the physical fitness test even at the national training camp…” “
The NFL Scouting Combine is a place where only the best athletes among prospects in the United States gather. Honestly, if you go even half way, I’ll be amazed.”
Most executives nodded.
Cha Moo-gyeol cannot rank high in the NFL scouting combine.
It was a very natural thought, not arrogance.
“If a friend with that much buzz participated in the combine, but other prospects had better results…” “
Yes, maybe the athletic ability of NFL players will be more prominent.”
“It’s good.”
Their expectations were simple.
If you had to pick one of the most popular sports stars in the world as of 2030, it would probably be flawless.
In addition, Cha Moo-gyeol’s popularity is based on his overwhelming physical ability and fighting skills, although he has star qualities.
Cha Mu-gyeol participated in the NFL Combine, but what if the NFL prospective rookies performed much better?
The NFL can naturally take the image of a ‘festival of post-human level monsters’.
“Can I get a huge publicity effect without spending a single penny on this?”
Cha Moo-gyeol’s popularity among young people is more than just a big pop star.
It costs astronomical dollars to lure a pop star to Super Bowl halftime, but calling him to the NFL scouting combine doesn’t cost a penny.
From the standpoint of the secretariat executives, there was no reason to refuse.
“Okay then let’s decide.”
Opinions came together quickly, and the very next day the NFL Office made a statement.
The statement read, “Even though he is not a college football player, he is specially allowed to participate in the NFL scouting combine.”
A few conservative NFL fans objected, but most looked forward to the event.
Cha Moo-gyeol, who is showing off his crazy physical abilities in the WFC, and the NFL Scouting Combine, which is called ‘the strongest physical gym in mankind’.
What will happen when the two meet?
The NFL Scouting Combine takes place in Indianapolis in late February.
There was still a lot of time left until WFC 532, but fans were never bored.
How many places will Cha Moo-gyeol win at the combine?
Even just talking about the expected rankings, there were so many mixed opinions that we had to stay up all night.
[From my point of view, it’s at least within the 100th place]
[Shit. When did Cha Mu-gyeol train for short-distance sprints or long-distance change of direction?]
[No matter how great Cha Mu-gyeol is, that’s a story within a martial arts]
[If you don’t finish last at the NFL Combine, it’s great]
[Isn’t it just a matter of participating? ?]
[Or maybe some kind of campaign]
[Am I weird? I think Mugyeol will be damn good]
[You’ve already shown off the long jump and vertical jump in ‘Rough’] [
Your
physical abilities haven’t improved yet?]
[It’s a jackpot if you go above 100th place]
[You go above 15th as they say? If this is the case, this is like authenticating a real alien]
[From then on, integrity must be maintained at the Pentagon; You don’t know when the UFO will send you back]
[Anyway, this bird is really funny]
[Why is a fucking martial artist going to the NFL scouting combine]
Everyone agreed on only one sentence.
Anyway, Cha Mu-gyeol is a fucking fun guy!

“Integrity Now I’m tired of even talking about it!”
‘Stinger”s Joel Khalid looked at Mugyeol with an expression of boredom and complained.
“Why the hell did you say you would do the NFL combine?”
“Doesn’t that sound like fun?”
“Of course it must be fun! But does fun feed you?”
“Are you feeding me?”
Khalid became a mute after eating honey.
Flawless stardom was thoroughly based on ‘fun’.
“Besides, I’m not poor enough to worry about eating.”
“That, too, is true.”
“Aren’t you curious about Joel? How many ranks will I get there?”
“Keep-.”
I’m curious, in fact, I’m very curious.
It was Joel Khalid who had been watching the flawless monstrous ability up close.
Of course, I wondered if that physical ability would be used in the NFL scouting combine.
“But if there is a bad result…”
Khalid was speechless, but Im Jin-soo, who was standing next to him, tapped him on the shoulder.
“Coach, don’t worry.”
“Mr. Lim, are you not worried?”
“There is no point in worrying. He grew up like this from Korea. Do what you want to do and fight who you want to fight. How many times have coaches not experienced it? Even if you tell me to do this or that during the game, in the end he is the one who solves it in his own way.”
“That’s what…”
“What’s more, what’s even more annoying is that his method is so damn fresh and effective. It even overflows with kanji! This is why if you approach it with logic and reason, you lose heart.”
Joel Khalid agreed with Im Jin-soo’s words, but felt bitter.
If that’s the case, wouldn’t there be no reason to have a head coach?
“Now I’m like, ‘So what am I doing?’ Did you think of this?”
“…how did you know?”
“I had similar thoughts in Korea. That’s why I went to samurai training.”
“Did that help?”
“of course. No matter how great a guy is, he needs an advisor who will keep talking by his side. The words coach said now because he was worried about Mugyeol must have been helpful in some way. Of course, that doesn’t mean I won’t go to the combine.”
“….”
“Moogyeol is a guy who can choose his own path. We just need to be able to let him know that ‘there is a road like this’. That is our role.”
“Is that so.”
“Besides, he’s a very lonely guy.”
“yes?”
Cha Moo-gyeol is lonely.
It didn’t match, but it didn’t seem like Im Jin-soo was joking.
“He became a total talker during the Olympics. Maybe Mugyeol needs a friend with whom he can talk openly.”
Khalid nodded quietly and looked at the integrity.
He was practicing the long jump in place on a mat on the gym floor.
“Huh-.”
As he jumped up, his fellow players began to flock to him in twos and threes.
“No, I want to try it too.”
“I am confident in the long jump in place!”
“Can I give you a tip? I was a football player until high school.”
“Jason, stay still. Can Mugyeol run better than you?”
Moo-gyeol’s surroundings suddenly became noisy, and Im Jin-soo patted Khalid and smiled.
“Shall we try it too?”
“…I’m sure.”
The two coaches smiled and approached the players.
“hey! flawless! Let’s jump too!”

Finally Indianapolis State Stadium in late February.
324 stars of the National Collegiate Football League gathered here for the NFL Scouting Combine.
The Combine basically does not accept general audiences.
Only a minimum number of people and the media are allowed to enter, as noise or unexpected actions from the audience may interfere with recording.
However, in the meantime, more than twice as many reporters than last year came.
There was even a helicopter floating above the stadium for relay.
The reason why so much attention was focused on the combine was, of course, because of Cha Mu-gyeol’s participation.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Mugyeol.
The eyes of the other contestants were not very good.
His eyes seemed to say ‘why did a martial arts player come here?’.
However, Mugyeol stretched with a calm expression while feeling everyone’s gaze.
Attention and hostility were all too familiar to him.
‘It would be nice if the record came out as much as when practicing’
That was the only thought in his head, whether or not anyone was looking at him.
However, other participants seemed to think differently.
“I’m crazy because I want to drag that bastard into aggro.”
“Crawling out to the combine crossed the line.”
“Make sure you don’t think about stepping out of my realm again to give me a fuck.”
Sharp hostility hung over Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, where the combine was held.
Cha Mu-gyeol vs. the confrontational composition created by the rest of the participants.
Amid the tension, the first event, the 40-yard dash, finally began.
It is called the flower of the combine because you can see the motor nerves of the whole body in an event where you run through a distance of 40 yards (about 37 m) at full speed.
The order of integrity is the last, the 324th.
Other players mumbled and expressed dissatisfaction with the orderly arrangement.
“Damn it, you’re the main character, isn’t it?”
“are you okay. It would be interesting to see a picture of the last guy running last.”
“Everyone, keep your mind straight. Surely you won’t be offended by a guy who came from MMA?”
“Of course, let’s crush it out of sight on the leaderboard.”
Taang-.
With the sound of the start signal, the first player started a 40-yard sprint.
[Yondal Johansson 4.43 in 4.]
[Chris Jenkins in 4.41.]
[Byron Michaels 4.39 in.]
Carl Griffin, who participated in the running back position, recorded the first place in the midst of good records.
[Karl Griffin 4 sec 29!]
“Ohh-.”
When a new record was announced almost at the last minute, all the participants exclaimed.
Some participants even made a triumphant expression while looking at Mugyeol’s face.
‘Look, how is it?’
‘This is mankind’s strongest athletic ability!’
Mugyeol was also genuinely admiring Carl Griffin’s run.
“oh.”
It feels more like a beast running on two legs than a human being.
How many seconds was my best in practice?
Was it 4 seconds 72? I’m suddenly confused.
[To the starting line of No. 324.]
Moo-gyeol finally stood at the starting line, receiving everyone’s attention.
Crouching starting position with feet and hands on the floor.
“Let’s run lightly.”
It’s not a place I came out to be first anyway, so this is a new experience.
Running is definitely a different field, but it is similar in that you have to use the explosive power of the whole body and a sense of balance.
In the octagon, all you have to do is dash 4 yards at the longest, but the mechanism for launching your body forward is not much different.
The explosive power of the lower body becomes gunpowder and fires a bullet forward.
The tightly held core muscles of the whole body become the barrel and keep the bullet’s trajectory constant.
‘It’s an event where I can fully apply my training’
Taaang-.
With a powerful gunshot, Mugyeol leapt forward.
The response speed from the start was unusual, and some players blinked their eyes at the acceleration that soon followed.
“…what is this.”
“It seems to be running pretty well.”
“It looks like it will run faster than 4 seconds 5…?”
However, the moment when the record of innocence finally appeared.
[…car flawless 4 seconds 28-!]
A record 0.01 second faster than Carl Griffin’s and a new record at this year’s combine.
“Are you fucking kidding me-!?”
While all the players were shocked, Mugyeol lightly brushed his limbs and laughed.
‘It was 4 seconds 27, not 4 seconds 72?’
However, the athletic ability of the monster Cha Mu-gyeol was just beginning to be revealed.
