Hello world, I'm Allie, and for about two decades of my life, I had convinced myself that I'd completely imagined the film Return to Oz as part of my nightmare-ish childhood imagination gone awry.

I couldn't remember the plot, or...literally anything about it. Just terrifying snippets I was sure I'd made up in my dumb baby brain.
It wasn't until, funnily enough, I stumbled upon a BuzzFeed dot com the website post about the movie (long before I even worked here) that I discovered I did not, in fact, imagine a terrifying headless witch with a room full of heads she'd collected! Imagine my relief!

In one scenario, Dallas makes Prescott the highest paid player in NFL history. In another, the Cowboys decline that commitment, at which point another team will make him the top paid player in NFL history.
