The Playoff Pool
E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES! The obnoxious notification alert awoke Sylvie with a start, but she grabbed it from the spot beside her on the bed in a hurry. Lighting the phone screen up in the dark, she had to squint into the brightness to see who the incoming text message was from. But it was just her brother and she groaned as she threw her arm down with the phone back onto the bed and rolled her eyes in frustration. Didn’t her brother know that nobody in Las Vegas got up before eleven o’clock in the morning? But she was up now, despite the time on her phone telling her it was 6:58am, so she climbed out of the queen-sized bed and flicked on the light switch beside the door before snatching up her cellphone out of the sea of purple sheets and scurrying out to her dining room table.
