Emotionally I hate that Aaron jones is not a packer but logically he had 3 separate injuries last season and he’s about to be 30 so I get why not wanting to pay him 12 million a year - reportedly the packers only pursued Jacobs after the Jones renegotiations broke down

 

Yeah Seattle is too poor. Hoping for Josey Jewell now.

 

They are from a breeder but I want to share our story!!!

We did a lot of research on what kind of breed we wanted. I have loved corgis for a while just from seeing them online and whatnot, but never knew their temperament or anything like that so we wanted to make sure their personalities would align with ours. After learning more about them we decided we wanted to raise a puppy together for many reasons, mostly the longevity of having a companion for a long time. We were looking for over a year at rescues trying to find a puppy (like 2 y/o and under) and were unsuccessful because nobody ever gives up a corgi puppy (at least not at the time in 2015) so we decided to look at different breeders and found one that we considered the most ethical etc. etc.

I know it's a very hot button issue but I personally don't think anybody should ever be shamed for "buying" their dog vs. rescuing them. We did a ton of research in finding what breed of dog was going to match with our personalities and lifestyles the best. You shouldn't be made to feel ashamed for that.

Rescue dogs can potentially come with a lot of baggage that a lot people don't realize, and end up not being able to care for them in a way that they need, and they end up back at the shelter. It works great for some people, and not so great for others.

I think if you're in a position where that works for you, then that's awesome and it's a wonderful thing to rescue a dog, and I always advocate that you should explore that option first before getting them from a breeder

 

We're not crazy I promise lol. He's referring to Josina tweeting out that the Patriots sent him an offer I assume.

 

Getting a dog can be such a difficult thing.

meanwhile cat owners can find a cat in their trash can and all is good lol

 

I just have a very hard time taking those "adopt don't shop people" seriously when they're soooooooooooo extremely hardcore about it, like telling you that you're a terrible piece of shit person for getting your pet from a breeder. Like there's nuance to it you weirdo

 

Could not be further from the truth, and a big reason why so many people assume cats are bad

 

I'd prefer people to adopt, but it's not always possible, especially if someone wants a specific breed (hopefully not one engineered to suffer its short life to be adorable).

 

don’t really know anything about him but I’ll take any corner really

 

how does that make one assume cats are bad?

 

It's one of the biggest "rules for thee not for me" things people do too

 

Because people adopt cats without thinking about it, without working on finding a cat that fits their situation, and then the cat's behavior ends up bad as a result. Seen it happen so often

 

I completely agree! Like I said there's nuance to it. I've had people literally wish death upon me for getting my dogs from a breeder and I'm like "ok"

 

Was on my list for the Eagles if they wanted to take a shot on a younger corner with slot/outside experience

 

I feel that's more the person's fault than the cat's. And I was more just being simplistic since i feel it's easier to get a cat than it is a dog.

 

this guy is such a smug shithead

his programs have been paying players under the table for decades

 

good luck to whoever foolishly signs him

 

That's a big contract for Mooney who has had 70 receptions, 900 yards, 3 TD in two years. I guess you could argue it's because Fields was throwing to him, but that's what they said about Allen Robinson too

 

I'd say kittens are easier to get than puppies for sure in terms of availability. Cats vs dogs I think are about equal but in terms of raising from birth, yeah

I agree it's more the person's fault obviously, I just know a LOT of people don't see it that way and it's frustrating especially when you see their cat's living situation

 

I'm reading a few pages back and yes I am the thread daddy

 

Yeah, no I agree. What I meant originally is that most of the time (but not ALL the time) breeds dont matter for cats. You just adopt the one that resonates with you. At least compared to dogs, where people have a breed preference a lot of times.

 

Great run defender but a major liability in coverage. I once saw a fullback blow past Jewell like he was Usain Bolt.
