My current black lab is 15  and I have to make that decision soon.

 

We have a 3 month old to go with the 3 year old. We lost the 14 year old last summer, the longest one has ever lasted for me. The 3 year old had never been alone before, and when we brought the pup home a few months later she was the happiest creature I’ve ever seen. Good luck, you’ll know when it’s time. I get it.

Man’s best friend doesn’t talk back or feel sorry for themselves. I have two Goldens again/still. Talk about best friends!!!

 

We had back to back Goldens. My vet told us once there's dog's and then there are Goldens. Very true.

Have a Vizsla/ Golden mix. Unbelievable temperament!

I’m on my 7th and 8th Goldens. I’ve had them all my life. Our son married a girl who came from a huge family (one of 6 daughters) all owning at least one labradoodle, so they got one of those. They BOTH agree the next dog will be a Golden.

If we turn it over like we did in those close victories, we will lose IMO

 

Yeah, I'm not seeing a lot of room for TOs here. 

 

I also don't think that we leave this game with anyone thinking that our D played well.  

 

This has the hallmarks of a trackmeet written all over it.  

 

Also, keep in mind, that last two games featured 8 takeaways and only 1 INT/TO.  

 

Miami's had only 5 takeaways so far this season, still good, and about the same TOs with 3.

Why...why shouldn't Dolphin fans be excited about their team? and I am a pretty good guy. Just don't like hypocrisy

Thing is, is the way you put it there's no reason to compare notes. To me it was snarky. it was like okay well let me go ahead and defend those fins fans and they're board by comparing them to Bill's fans on their board. And I'm sure you are a swell guy. it was just in the moment and that's how I responded. Go Bills 😁

Our black lab mix (Shadow) was fifteen. We had to have him put down earlier this year. His ten-year-old brother Rocky (terrier mix) has been lonely, so last week we adopted a ten-year-old beagle. We both prefer labs or goldens, but we wanted something smaller this time. "Stanley" was on sale at the animal shelter, so we figured he was at or near the top of the list to be euthanized, so we decided to rescue him.

 

Rocky and Stanley:

This is to Miami as last years KC match up was to Buffalo. 
 

I’ll take an L this week if it means we mirror KC in 2022.

 

There are no must win games this early in the season, but this game is extremely important.

 

Going down 0-2 in the division and 1-2 in the conference and Miami going to 4-0 with two cupcake teams coming up on their schedule is not a great scenario.

 

I really think we need this W.

IDK, our last three games vs. them have been a loss, then in the two wins, one with Skylar Thompson at QB, they lost 34-31 and 32-29. 

 

In that last one, in the heavy snow, in Buffalo, Tua posted an excellent game and their rushing game put up nearly 200 yards on over 7 ypc.  That was without Achane.  

 

IMO this game will come down to how well we defend their running game.  

 

 

Also, I thought that we had a pretty emotional win last week too, matching our second highest scoring game of last season.  

 

 

Game 1 we had Jaquan Johnson, Damar Hamlin, Dane Jackson, and Tremaine Edmunds covering Hill & Waddle plus the backup o-line for an already bad O-line in 130 degree heat. Games 2 & 3 we had a shell of Tre White plus no Von Miller.

 

Replace Jaquan/Hamlin with Poyer/Hyde, Dane with good Tre, Tremaine with a promising matchup LB Bernard, Leonard Floyd in for the Von Miller void, add O'Cyrus/McGovern to the OLine, Kincaid to keep the chains moving, and a UCL for Josh plus 75 & sunny and I'm feeling pretty good

NFL has points made as factor in ties for standings so I do not think it is bad karma unless someone gets hurt especially on a scoring celebration.

That's an old Bill Bellichick excuse after he ran the score on the Bills. points scored in like 6 down the list of tie breakers , nope bad Karma, wait and see

Running up the score is bad Karma 

That's what will kill the Dolphins 

The backup QB threw a TD pass so that’s a bit sketch. But otherwise they seemed to appear as not trying to set the record. The extreme heat field side (talk about player S issue).. and a team that quit =70. If it were reversed and Bills put up 70 I would be just a bit concerned it was too easy.
