J.J. Watt "pretend" marries 6 year old girl for the day.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon...r-old/1879937/
While the city of Houston was gearing up for the Texans' divisional playoff game against the New England Patriots, one six-year-old wasn't feeling the excitement. She was in tears. In a video posted to YouTube, the young girl is crying because she's not 25 years old. Her mother asks why. It was simple, really: The girl says if she were 25, she'd be able to marry Texans defensive star J.J. Watt. (He's like renting a car in that way.) The clip, and all of the crocodile tears held within, is fantastic: Watt found out about the clip and asked his Facebook followers for help in finding the family. "We have to find her and turn those tears into a smile, he wrote." The power of social media made it happen, and this week Watt "proposed" to six-year-old Breanna. "Thanks to your help, we found 6-year-old Breanna and she said yes to being my pretend wife for the day," he posted on Wednesday. He has the pictures to prove it. It's a great story and one that will make Watt more popular with all genders and age groups. And, Breanna? I've been there before, girl. The difference is, I never got to marry Belinda Carlisle, not even for a day. |

That "pretend" divorce is going to be awkward...

In all seriousness, this was very nice of him and shows a commitment that surprises me. That little girl is going to remember that one of her heroes is a real live person. That's great for a kid. To know that heroes exist. In twenty years she'll be long over her crush but she'll remember that there are great people out there who care about each other. And he's helping her to know what a man is, or what a man should be. I was never fond of Watt. But this was a tender gesture on his part and shows a bit of his human side. He's all right in my book.

Yeah, but he by-passed the fake marriage part and went straight for the consummation portion

It was really more of a date than a marriage. But it wasn't pretend.

He was never around, totally absorbed in his career, and the few times he was, he never wanted to do normal couple things like tea parties in her Playskool kitchen, long romantic walks looking for bugs to squish or having nice chats about the merits of Dora the Explorer.

Sorry...but this is absolutely stupid. Isn't there a child in Houston with cancer or leukemia that he could make smile.
Also...a big thumbs down to the parents for putting this video on YouTube. |

You realize what JJ Watt is doing for the family that lost their parents in a car accident? Right?
