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.

20 years from now when that chick is 26 and J.J. Is in his forties and not pulling the kind of tail that he's pulling now, it would be nice of her to look him up and return the favor.

Watt...... quickly __________________ The other thing about B-Rush is that he never lied. Coach Self would be like, “Did everyone make curfew last night? If you didn’t make curfew, raise your hand.” All of us that broke curfew kept our hands down — except B-Rush. He’d raise his hand and tell on himself. Coach Self would ask him why he didn’t make curfew and he’d say, “Because the club was crackin’!” Everyone would laugh and he’d make B-Rush run a little bit.
