Our Fred just died. I feel like I've lost a member of the family. We're all crying. He's better off now and not in any pain. He had several tumors. We've been expecting it, but it still hurts.

Fred was old when we found him whining under one of my aunt's bushes. He was a hunting dog that got lost. He was with us for 12 years.

The best picture I have is one of him and chico that we had made.

Sorry to hear about your lose Sunbunny. 12 years is a pretty good long life for a beagle, especially if he wasn't a pup to start with. Best to let them go sometimes. We as owners at times tend to drag out a pets life not because we care about the pet but because WE don't want to deal with the loss. A large portion of the time though, it is usually the right thing to just let them go to the "Great Cat Chasing Field" in the sky.

If you are interested in getting another beagle, a friend of mine has one that he would probably give away for free. It has issues though, everytime it hears someone whistle it shits, a lot too. God forbid you are inside with him and Andy Griffith comes on.

Sorry, Sunbunny. Wish I had more than words to offer.

I've been working temporarily for a vet right up the street. We had a dog that could barely breathe or move and I knew he was going to be put down that night so I sat with him and petted him for a good half an hour. In those moments you wonder why we are given 80 years on this planet while dogs and other loyal animals only get 10-15. Then you realize that it's people like you who make those 10-15 years so much better than what any other animal is getting. You lost a good friend, SB, but you made his life SO much better than it would have been.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.

      Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
