What we learned

 A synopsis, now, of what we've learned so far in the NFL's Wild Card Weekend, with Tampa Bay-Philly and Buffalo-Pittsburgh yet to come -- either today, for the latter, or Tuesday, or, hell, who knows when ...

* If it's the playoffs, you know the Cowboys are gonna Cowboy it up.

* C.J. Stroud is a god among men.

* Ditto Jordan Love.

* Mike Tirico crowing about the ratings for an NFL playoff game a lot of the country either didn't see, or had to pay extra to see, was one of the most clueless examples of bad form ever. All that was missing was Gordon Gekko in the booth saying "That's right, Mike! Greed is good, baby."

* If I hear one more misogynist jackwagon complain about seeing Taylor Swift during a Chiefs game again, I'm gonna send Matthew McConaughey and Jack Nicholson over to his house to gets his mind right. If I can get the former off the Texas sideline and the latter out of his courtside Lakers seats, that is.

Celebs have always been part of the sporting landscape. Always.

Of course, when it's an outrageously successful woman they're showing on TV ...

* And now, in honor the Lions first playoff win in 33 years, here's "Detroit Waves" by Matt Nathanson.
