Speak of, this was our shelter save last month. Stats show with her being six and dark fur, she wasn't gonna be high on people's list. Made her perfect for us.

Oh man. That picture threw me off. Thought her nose was her other eye. Wondering what was wrong with your dog. Hahaha.

Edit: to be fair, the brightness on my phone was way down. Lightened it up, and it’s a clear picture. Handsome dog!

Haha, I know.
But honestly, they pick you. We must have taken 10 different dogs to the play are and she would reach over the gate as we passed. Finally took her and all doubt was removed.

Nice looking dog! My last 2 dogs were solid black Labs, never understood why black dogs are hard to place they are my favorites..

Thank ya!
Shelter said 2 different reasons.
1. People are looking for unique color patterns if a dog isn't a pure breed.
2. The horror movie effect. Black cats, dogs, bats, etc.. irrational, subconscious belief they're more likely to turn.

But like you, I love them.

Haha, awesome.
Just beautiful.
Haven't had her tested but ours is obviously high, high percentage black lab. The white chest marks are even textbook from a pic.
That and the slight hump most have on the snout behind the nose.

We had our rescue mutt's dna tested a few years ago and it came back with six different breeds, one of which was "mixed breed". lol A true mutt.

Funny thing is, the results are often surprising. Even though some breeds that showed up were expected (Boxer because of the way she uses her paws, Staffy because she's a rescue mutt lol), there are physical traits that can lead you to expect certain breeds that don't show up, just because of the weird and chancy way genes are selected, I guess.

For instance, our dog's coat looks exactly like a Jack Russell (white and tan smooth coat variety) even though she's much larger, like 50 lbs, so I really expected to see a Jack on the list but it's not... unless it's included in "mixed breed". Go figure.

It's so simple LSU, Ohio State, Clemson, Bama are the best 4 either team would destory Minn. i don't like bama but they would put a beat down on MINN. OR THE DUCKS LOOK AT THE FINAL 4 YOU WOULD HAVE they say they wont the best 4 think about it would you rater see a LSU-Minn game or a LSU-bAMA REMATCH IN THE semi finals.

I don’t think Bama’s D would push around an OL that averages 340 pounds. Gophers will come back to earth next year but they have a ton of upper classmen with experience. Really good QB. They are for real.

I think it depends on the team, the time of year, and the circumstances... Us, maybe just to get healthy... to Auburn, an extra week to plan and practice for Ga...

Yes. Bye weeks are different for all teams.some teams take advantage some teams use it as a total break it just depends.

There’s really no way of knowing that tho. Sure you can say “the eye test” but you never know until teams play the game. A lot of people said the same thing about Georgia last year and they get dominated by texas. College football is so diverse that a team that you wouldn’t think could based of personnel can be a nightmare for some “elite” teams. Oregon has the 2nd best QB in the country and Minnesota has a great head coach so both could compete with really anybody.

The reason The Incredible Hulk movie with Ed Norton isn't on Disney+ is because Universal Studios has the movie rights to The Incredible Hulk character. Even though Marvel Studios produced the film, Universal recieved all the profits from it. Marvel can use the Hulk in movies such as The Avengers and Thor Ragnarok but they can't make another solo Hulk film without giving all the profit to Universal.

Cut the chord years ago. I just don’t see all this streaming working out in the long run for me. So much data demand at my house with just a few devices running. YoutubeTV, Netflix, Hulu, Disney+. Too much. I get tired of the buffering... miss being hardwired with cable to each TV TBH. Maybe it will all serve its purpose and make cable cheaper and better.

I think they would if they thought they had a chance to get to the playoffs as a conference champion or a good team in the ACC, etc. Right now they think there are about 6 teams that give them a chance. I'm already getting tired of the same teams making it.

I think the only real solution is the path we are on. We have to fight our way back into the top of the SEC. Then the system will work in our favor. We may be the second SEC team before too terribly long.
