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.

      It may not be exact science and this FO is relatively new, but it is very much likely the first couple picks will be of players we met.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      The only other position group I could think of is ILB since Dan was there for Rodriguez and Hill Jr. pro days in Texas. It’s one of the reasons I get the feeling ILB could be the pick at 19.

      Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years (Brown is the only current player I think there is even an argument to be made over T-Mac there), with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
