帕特里克·馬霍姆斯“肯定”會考慮在2028年奧運會上踢橄欖球

Patrick Mahomes is looking to the future!

帕特里克·馬霍姆斯展望未來！

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, 28, has his sights set on a possible go at flag football in the 2028 Olympics. 

這位28歲的堪薩斯城酋長隊四分衛(wèi)將目光投向了2028年奧運會的旗幟足球。

During a press conference on Friday in Frankfurt, Germany, Mahomes opened up on whether or not fans could expect to see him try one of the proposed sports for the Los Angeles games.

周五在德國法蘭克福舉行的新聞發(fā)布會上，馬霍姆斯公開了球迷們是否可以期待看到他嘗試洛杉磯奧運會的一項擬議運動。

He began explaining that with his team facing off against the Miami Dolphins in Europe, football is currently on a “world stage.”

他開始解釋說，隨著他的球隊在歐洲對陣邁阿密海豚隊，足球目前正處于“世界舞臺”上

“NFL football, American football … has gone all the way across the world with flag football coming to the Olympics,” Mahomes said at the conference.

馬霍姆斯在會議上說：“NFL足球、美式足球……隨著奧運會上的旗幟足球，已經在世界各地傳播開來。”

According to the Olympics’ official website, the LA28 Organising Committee has proposed five new categories —  baseball-softball, cricket, flag football (a limited-contact version of American football), lacrosse, and squash.

根據奧運會官方網站，LA28組委會提出了五個新類別——棒球壘球、板球、旗幟足球（美式足球的有限接觸版本）、長曲棍球和壁球。

Mahomes was then asked if he would ever join the competition. 

馬霍姆斯隨后被問到是否會參加比賽。

"I definitely want to," he replied. "But I’ve seen some of those guys play the flag football. They’re a little faster than I am. I know there’s not like linemen blocking for you. I’ll be 31, 32 years old. So if I can still move around then, I’m going to try to get out there and throw the football around maybe in LA."

“我當然想，”他回答。“但我見過其中一些人踢旗幟足球。他們比我快一點。我知道沒有什么比邊線隊員更能阻擋你的了。我將31、32歲。所以如果那時我還能四處走動，我會努力走出去，也許在洛杉磯把足球扔來扔去。”

“In building the Olympic sport program, we were willing to challenge the status quo and think differently about what’s possible for the Games in Los Angeles,” LA28 CEO Kathy Carter said in a statement last month. “We approached the process holistically and authentically, ensuring that our decisions were grounded in the Games’ commitment to fiscal responsibility. And we’ve landed on a bold and balanced proposal that will energize the Games with culturally relevant competition and boundless possibility.” 

LA28首席執(zhí)行官凱西·卡特上個月在一份聲明中表示：“在建設奧運會體育項目的過程中，我們愿意挑戰(zhàn)現(xiàn)狀，以不同的方式思考洛杉磯奧運會的可能。”。“我們全面而真實地處理了這一過程，確保我們的決定以奧運會對財政責任的承諾為基礎。我們提出了一個大膽而平衡的建議，將為奧運會注入與文化相關的競爭和無限的可能性。”

Travis Kelce also answered questions at the press conference. Reporters particularly wanted to know if a certain pop star would be rooting for the tight end at this weekend’s away game. 

Travis Kelce也在新聞發(fā)布會上回答了提問。記者們特別想知道，某位流行歌星是否會支持本周末客場比賽的艱難結局。

"When I mention, or everyone knows she's at the game, the Vegas line and over/under on my catches goes up and down," Kelce, 34, responded, choosing to keep his relationship with Taylor Swift, 33, out of the conversation. 

34歲的凱爾斯回應道：“當我提到，或者每個人都知道她在比賽中時，拉斯維加斯的線和我接球時的上/下都會上下起伏。”他選擇將與33歲的泰勒·斯威夫特的關系排除在談話之外。

"The spread goes up and down," he continued. "So I don't want to mess with any of that stuff. I'm just going to keep that to myself."

他繼續(xù)說道：“價差上下浮動。”“所以我不想把這些事情搞砸。我只想保密。”
