The mermaid princess was bored. Nobody cared that she would commanded a large horde. Her army was going to be massive, the ocean was hers. But she still needed something more, maybe some land furs. She cast a spell, grew some legs, and breached the surface. She smirked, and shouted “I’m here, don’t fear. Someone take me on a date somewhere near.” Several men asked her out, she chose the one with a bad case of gout. He had the biggest wallet and the most clout. She turned him into a merman and they went back to the sea together.

A Little Trouble
“Go away,” I shouted. A tiny man zipped through the air and zapped me with his tiny weapon. “This is getting annoying,” I shouted. I swatted at him. I ran to the bathroom and grabbed a can of hair spray. I sprayed it all over the tiny man and his flying suit stopped working. He fell to the table and tried to radio for help. “Houston, send back up. I couldn’t capture the giant from Venus,” he said. “I don’t think so,” I said and smashed the tiny man. I turned around to see a hundred more tiny suited men.

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.
