Patrick Mahomes is looking to the future!

帕特里克·马霍姆斯展望未来！

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

这位28岁的堪萨斯城酋长队四分卫将目光投向了2028年奥运会的旗帜足球。

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.

周五在德国法兰克福举行的新闻发布会上，马霍姆斯公开了球迷们是否可以期待看到他尝试洛杉矶奥运会的一项拟议运动。

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

他开始解释说，随着他的球队在欧洲对阵迈阿密海豚队，足球目前正处于“世界舞台”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.

马霍姆斯在会议上说：“NFL足球、美式足球……随着奥运会上的旗帜足球，已经在世界各地传播开来。”

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.

根据奥运会官方网站，LA28组委会提出了五个新类别——棒球垒球、板球、旗帜足球（美式足球的有限接触版本）、长曲棍球和壁球。

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

马霍姆斯随后被问到是否会参加比赛。

"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."

“我当然想，”他回答。“但我见过其中一些人踢旗帜足球。他们比我快一点。我知道没有什么比边线队员更能阻挡你的了。我将31、32岁。所以如果那时我还能四处走动，我会努力走出去，也许在洛杉矶把足球扔来扔去。”

“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首席执行官凯西·卡特上个月在一份声明中表示：“在建设奥运会体育项目的过程中，我们愿意挑战现状，以不同的方式思考洛杉矶奥运会的可能。”。“我们全面而真实地处理了这一过程，确保我们的决定以奥运会对财政责任的承诺为基础。我们提出了一个大胆而平衡的建议，将为奥运会注入与文化相关的竞争和无限的可能性。”

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也在新闻发布会上回答了提问。记者们特别想知道，某位流行歌星是否会支持本周末客场比赛的艰难结局。

"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岁的凯尔斯回应道：“当我提到，或者每个人都知道她在比赛中时，拉斯维加斯的线和我接球时的上/下都会上下起伏。”他选择将与33岁的泰勒·斯威夫特的关系排除在谈话之外。

"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."

他继续说道：“价差上下浮动。”“所以我不想把这些事情搞砸。我只想保密。”
