Ask J.J. Watt for an excuse to get off work and you shall receive.

The Texans star received a tweet Monday from a desperate fan who was looking for his help so she could attend his charity softball game on Friday.

Less than six hours later, Watt responded with a picture of a handwritten letter addressed to the woman's boss. Although he said he has "no authority to excuse her, only you do," he played the guilt card by listing just how great the event is.

Seriously, Ashlee's boss, how in the world can you say no to this?
