Little hands reach for her. Little feet follow her. Light pours out of her very being. She is soft, comfort, guidance, and peace; and yet she often has none of these for herself. She gives, and she gives. And she asks for nothing. For everything that she pours into them, she pours out of herself. She cannot refill. She does not want to.

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.
