Not gonna lie, overall they looked much more in sync than I expected them to. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Def think Rex has his work cut out for him in terms of picking a QB though. Cassel came in did exactly what you would want from him.

Taylor looked pretty dynamic, but how long will it last? Guys like him tend to do well for a while and then fizzle out.

There's something out there bothering that dog. It reminds me of my nephews cat. It's an indoor cat and he started taking it in the yard and the cat had a bad seizure. He rushed it to the emergency hospital and the cause was mouse & rat poop in the grass. Needless to say, the indoor cat now stays indoors.

Well, I had to give him more steroid and 2 benadryl at about 7. It seems a tiny bit better, but no major improvements yet. It's not actually bothering him though, because he's letting me touch it fine, he's not scratching at it or anything, and he's laying on it like normal.

Gotta call the vet back in the morning if it's still swollen.

Yeah. I have a feeling it's the yellow jackets. I'm just going to be super cautious with him outside. Only out there if I'm with him. Unfortunately I can't leash him back there to really keep him close because he won't do all his business on a leash in the yard. He stands there looking at me confused instead.

No, the grass is always well maintained here. My roommate is anal about it. But she did say after she cut the grass the last time that the bees were insane back there.

Good way to find it if it is a nest. He would lead you to it.

Bee stings can be deadly to humans. I can't imagine a dog handling it. Maybe you can get him an EpiPen.

Cornerback is hard to come into and be really good right away. Give him some time to adjust. He's playing in his first ever pro game.

I hate to see what you're gonna say about Eichel when he doesn't score a point in his first preseason game.

I just think it's a bit extreme considering who it was that you were talking about. If it's a veteran of a few years, then fine. Complain away. But like I said, it's his first pro game. Does your head hurt from jumping to conclusions so quickly?

Does he have work to do? Absolutely. Am I currently worried about it? No. I'll worry when he routinely gets burned game after game after game during the regular season.

Had a Husky tangle with a porcupine. 4hrs pulling quils from her face,nose,tongue and throat. to the vet afterwards and they said we saved 100 bucks doing it ourselves. They would have done the same and given us a few aspirins. All they said could be done.

I know. But that could just be the plan in the first place. Wouldn't surprise me to see each of the top 3 get to start a game.

Taylor will put up Russel Wilson numbers if he is the starter
3,000 yards passing
700 yards rushing


honestly if he is the starter, cassel should be cut as EJ can run the same offense as Taylor
