Just got the call that my Cupcake, a 13-14 year old walk on rescue peaceably passed in the night. Thought we had a little more time as she has been winding down for a while.

An American bulldog yellow lab mix has been a wonderful companion, damaged one hammer handle, and no health issues with annual shots only involved. She was a feral ghost dog living in nearby woods that we won over ahead of several neighbors due in large part to my grandson being an attraction. 80 lb Cupcakes come about when you ask your 5 year old grandaughter to name her.

Having to cut short a visit with the Auburn grands for the return trip to properly prepare her and her spot of honor. Sadly on my 47th wedding anniversary.

Wild dog to full blown loving house diva is a saga I will cherish always. Looked a lot like Marley, but ALL smooth sailing all the way to checking out on her own terms in her own house.

She sounds like she was a wonderful member of your family. Prayers for peace and comfort during this time of hurt and mourning. All the good times and memories to share to keep her alive in your hearts.

I agree...but if I had to pick one guy to play for one year at the peak of their game....I'm taking The Kid. I think the injuries that took their toll in his later years have fogged peoples perception of him.

I really believe that for three or four years that he was the most spectacular baseball player (not just hitter)of all time.

Like I said...that is not just taking offense into account....and of course I'm throwing out all the roiders.

There's not been a better baseball player since Griffey Jr. If the injuries he experienced in Cincinnati never happened he would no doubt be the greatest of all time in many's eyes. He was the ultimate 5 tool player.

If you took your irrational blinders off and read the article your questions would be answered! The guest writer clearly lays it all out, it’s not disputable.

I read it. It is basically "X" bemoaning about instate lineman we did not recruit who ended up at other P5 schools and a couple of them were within the conference. It is very disputable as this class is not complete and will not be until December or February. I think it COULD be fair criticism but that remains to be seen. Long way to go. We have some good OL prospects committed. Losing Ramil at the last minute to MSU stings. We will recover. I remain unruffled.
