But for cornerback Vontae Davis, none of that mattered. He was done. 他留下五百万美金没拿，而且比赛尚未结束。但是对角卫Vontae Davis来说，这些 都不重要了。他受够了。 Davis, 30, sent shockwaves through the NFL -- and his own locker room -- when he abruptly ended his career on September 16, retiring at halftime of the Buffalo Bills' game against the Los Angeles Chargers. 30岁的Davis於9月16日的比尔对电光人比赛中场休息时间突然退休的行为带给NFL --以及他球队的更衣室--极大冲击。 "Never have seen it ever -- Pop Warner, high school, college, pros -- never heard of it, never seen it," Bills linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said after the game. "It's just completely disrespectful to his teammates." 「我从来没看过这种事发生--无论是Pop Warner，高中，大学，还是职业生涯--从来 没听说过，也从来没看过。」比尔队线卫Lorenzo Alexander在比赛结束後如此说。 「这对他的队友们非常不敬。」 In an interview on camera with CNN's Brooke Baldwin, Davis responded to Alexander's comments. Davis被CNN主播Brooke Baldwin专访时做出了对Alexander的发言的回应。 "I come from very humble beginnings," Davis said. "My mother was addicted to drugs, my father an alcoholic. I grew up in some very traumatic situations. I witnessed my father being shot multiple times by his brother. And when you come out of situations like that, you're just not considered a quitter. 「我出身并不算好，」Davis说。「我妈妈用毒，我爸爸嗜酒。 我成长期间碰到不少对我造成创伤的事件。我目睹我爸爸被他兄弟用枪射。你如果是在 这种环境下长大的话，你不会被标注为quitter。」 "I don't think I quit. I think I feel that, as I walk away from a game that no longer serves me mentally, physically, and emotionally. That's what I would tell people who say I quit. Most people don't know who I am as a person or what I've been through to achieve the success I have." 「我不认为我放弃了。当我离开一个无论精神，身体，还是情绪方面上都无法给 我任何需求的比赛的同时，我是如此感受的。我会跟说我放弃的人如此说。绝大部分的人 不知道我是怎样的人，也不知道我付出了多少才换取到我的成就。」 Davis' older brother, Washington tight end Vernon Davis, took to Instagram a couple of days later after the news, writing, "It's hard to see him retire, as I thought he would be in this league longer than me. I feel like I retired because we're so close and I look at him as he's my son even though he's my younger brother." Davis的哥哥华盛顿红皮的边锋Vernon Davis在Vontae退休几天後於Instagram发 言，写说「我对於他退休这件事也很难过，因为我原本认为他会在这个联盟待的 比我久。我甚至认为我已经退休了，因为我们非常亲，而且虽然他是我弟弟，我把他当作 我的儿子对待。」 ---------------- 心得: 此篇文章後面有详述他是哪一瞬间知道他要退休，也有写说他之後有邀请一些队友 去他家对他们做详细说明。他也说他退休的一个原因是CTE的可能性，也稍稍提到他退休後 的打算（依自身经历写一本童书，跟老婆开始一个家庭[=娃娃!]）。 本人对他在比赛中场休息时退休当然是有点困惑（现住Rochester，一堆比尔队球迷）， 但是对於一个运动员来说，你如果无法全力付出，你当然就不应该在场上，所以对於此 部分我是认同Davis退休的决定（而不是下半场半吊子的打之後再退休）。 --
