Go for it

They are family and it's so difficult giving them up. I recently went through the exact thing

I put down two over ten yrs ago and one two yrs ago. Very painful.

My wife and i have two shin tzus (brother sn d sister). One turned 9 yrs old last week and other turns 10 in Feb. They go on vacations w/ us. If we fly somewhere, then we hire a house sitter. Refuse to put them in a kennel. Like our kids - esp since we are now empty nesters.

 

[FlVols]

Hope he got the 1 Down

 

[orangerush]

Need a tush push

This is exactly what I'm talking about

TN vs Maryville High isn't much of a game even if Maryville has the greatest team they've ever had

I went to Maryville I would have left at halftime if they were playing this uninspired.

On a different note - Pls keep my brother, sister n law, and their kids in your prayers.

They just got a call from the vet telling them their dog Rosie didn’t survive emergency surgery.

Rosie began acting strange two days ago so the vet told them to bring her in today. Around 1:30 pm today the vet recommended surgery to remove a mass on her spleen which would correct the issue. But 30 min ago the vet call to advise Rosie’s heart stopped beating.

The vet was shocked to discover cancer was all over Rosie’s body. So sad .

I know a dog is not a human being but pet owners understand the pain when losing a loved one.

It’s def hard on the kids as Rosie has been with them most of their lives. I hurt for my brother, sister n law, nephew, and niece. It’s So unexpected as they thought the vet was calling to advise all was well along with the final costs for the procedure.

Thanks everyone.

Got it

 

[PC Jr.]

It’s bad when Tennessee plays and you’d rather just put it on multiview.

No doubt

 

[zeppelin128]

Nice

I was hoping we would run like this in the second half of Alabama game.

 

[orangerush]

The running man

 

[Freak]

Thomas! Big run!

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Perhaps Heupel has lost some confidence in JA, thus the conservative approach. Seen this movie before. GBO!

Well he needs to stop that crap if that's what it is, no confidence in Milton, no confidence in Nico, no confidence in Joey.
If he's gonna clam up anytime a QB makes a mistake he's never going to win the big one

 

[FlVols]

Give him 6 Thomas got it but Bishop ran it down their throats on that drive

 

[ttocswob]

Star TD!!!!!! !

 

[vol94]

The "like" isn't for your pain, it's to make sure your post stays, unless I'm mistaken

I'm so very sorry for your loss

I hear ya. Thanks my friend. So unexpected . And to hear my brother be emotional … only heard him be emotional once and I’m 54 - he’s 59.

Thank you friend.

Touchdown Tennessee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Well, my family had seen enough. We just got up and walked out. I’m shocked at how many thousands of people had the same feeling and are outside Neyland right now leaving.

For real?

 

[GhostVol]

Yep... there it is

After the GA game they're gonna mention Gilbert never missing a PAT

Every. Single. Time.

 

[PC Jr.]

Really? If I was there I would have stayed for the whole game. Too far for me to go every weekend though.

Plenty of seats available now.

 

[LivinginthePast]

Season is over. Need to start preparing for 2026 immediately

We are not promised another day much less a season. Play the guys that give you a chance to win. With the transfer portal you can not predict next year. That’s a fact. We didn’t know who Joey was until this year.

It was my Shitzshu who was 9 that we had to put down. So hard to give her up. We spent thousands on her to try and extend her life, but it wasn't to be

 

[bpalmer28]

Ok we’re up 4 TDs. Can we see some backups please

 

[PC Jr.]

For real?

On one first down play, like 6 people clapped. The crowd is totally out of it. It was like a version of the O&W game. Sad. Waste of my money. At least honoring vets was cool. The Alumni tailgate event was excellent. Highly recommend.
