Cried like a baby yesterday....

Took ole Daisy to have her put down.

She had gone downhill fast over the last couple months. Gotten to a point where she was uncomfortable all the time. Yesterday morning she needed my help to get up from laying down, so it was time.

Took her to the vet, who agreed it was the humane thing to do.

She laid there with her head in my lap looking up at me as I petted her and assured her what a good girl she had been. Wasn't 20 seconds until she was asleep.

I won't lie. I didn't cry. I sobbed. I had not sobbed like that for many years, probably since the passing of my paw paw. Losing a pet sucks. I can't even imagine what it must be like to lose a spouse or child. Must be one thousand times worse. Makes my heart really go out to those families that much more.

Anyways, I think this qualifies as one of those times men are allowed to cry in the man rule book. Someone please verify.

Sorry, Zod. Just know this...down the road you'll feel peace knowing that you were there when she needed you to be. I know that's not much solace right now, but trust me, down the road it will make a huge difference when you think about her. I sobbed like a little girl the first time I did it, too. A week of dread (or longer) doesn't prepare you for it.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
