Cried like a baby yesterday....


Zod

Recommended Posts

Been there.

My ol dog lived almost 20 years, had to do that in grad school. Once those kidneys started to fail and he couldn't hardly get up anymore, it had to be done. You could see it in his eyes. Pain.

My mom couldn't do it, almost wouldn't let me do it, but the suffering had to end.

The pain is over for the dog (something to remember), it is those that move on that have to deal with the sadness. Same goes for our people when it is time for life's final chapter.

I'm surry for your loss, but you did the right thing Zod.

that sucks Zod...very sorry to hear it. Losing a pet is always a very hard thing and having to bring it in to get put down makes it even worse. But I agree with others...good on ya for stepping up and taking care of it. Know that Daisy had a great life and is no longer in pain.

Man card intact!

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.

I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your friend, brother. She was a beautiful pooch and I know you miss her. Good on you relieving her of her pain and suffering. Chin up, bro

    • I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?
    • You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
    • For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
