It makes me happy


88 Bronco

A year ago, my family and I adopted a mutt on death row. He had been in and out of the SPCA about 3 or 4 times (hyperactivity and destructive behavior). He was a few days from being put to sleep because no one would adopt him. When I went to pick him up he was so scared. When I got him home all he would do is growl and run away from me. He used to do this to every man that came over to my house. He took to my wife and daughter quite well. I can only assume a man abused the poor guy. Well fast forward a year, he is still very hyper and absolutely loves me. In fact he is sitting at my feet right now, like he always does when I'm on the computer. It just makes me happy to have given this guy a new lease on life.

good on ya buddy

I'm thinking of going Greyhound adoption when my boy is old enough to respect a doggie.

We got our first dog (another SPCA mutt) when my daughter was one. She did a little of the tail pulling bit, but a few smacks on the hand put an end to that. Having a small child and a dog requires strong discipline for both. Dogs want to jump up on people, and kids don't understand that tugging on their ears hurts. If done right, you kid will have precious memories of their childhood pet.

    • Canales was asked about Freeling at OTAs getting beat by Princely and Scourton.  He basically described the learning curve, and it sounds as if Freeling has a lot to learn before taking the job.  Walker gives us time.  Having said that, Motown talks like he has a few (2-3?) years left---and I would love to see it.   If you look at the contracts, It is a good bet that Hunt and Lewis are extended and given some guaranteed $$$ to lower the cap hit.  Lewis is about 29 and Hunt is 30, I believe.  That gives us about a 3-year window to start grooming their replacements.  Ickey seems to be the person who could be left without furniture in the musical chairs game.  I would move him to guard and use him like a Travelle Wharton--we have a good problem--we could have six or seven starting OL on the roster.  Of course, that won't last long.
    • I see this point and agree--However, someone is going to bite.  In fact, I think there will be some bluffing going on to make the desperate teams raise the stakes.  We shall see.
    • I could see a team like the Jets, Cardinals etc. bid a second round pick, get a year to see where he’s at, and still take a first round QB if he doesn’t show the right stuff. A risk well worth taking. I just wonder how much of a mental toll the last few months have taken on him?
