It varies depending who you ask. He has some fans, but hasn't built up a tremendous amount of goodwill at large. If the team doesn't win at least 8 games (against a pretty easy schedule) he's in trouble.

My dog ran in front of a car today and was struck hard. He got clocked pretty good, but the tough poodle that he is, he seems to be doing okay, just scared. I took off work today, to stay with him. He doesn't seem to have any broken bones, so that is good thing. He peed blood at first, but that has stopped. He is slowly starting to act like himself again.
And the obligatory "Cars, man, why?!"

It seems people always want a rational explanation for irrational behavior. One of my brothers once drove to Casper, Wyoming because his cat suggested it.

I'll take a coach who can count players over one with pretty hair.
There's rumors this guy went through several pairs of custom imported pants to get the right colour. And had the construction crew tear down and redo his newly-constructed office.

Mr. B is doing better, thank you all for the concern. He checked out fine with the vet. Just cuts, and bruises. We have him on antibiotics for the cuts, and he's on meds for the pain now. He was very lucky. The lady in the Buick was probably doing 30-35 or so. She did brake hard though, so that helped. Not to mention the modern urethane bumper covers, tend to help ease small impacts like this. Had it been a truck, I am certain he would be dead. It was hard lesson to learn, but I think he understands now. Took him on a short walk a bit ago with no leash just the shock collar, and he listened to every command without hesitation, and I never even had to beep him. Here he was when we got back from seeing my sister the vet.
He's laying on my bed now, enjoying the breeze from the ceiling fan, and the pain meds.

Almost no pain after today's long walk with Sam. It's improving. The hard part will be staying off the bike for at least another month.
But I'll take it. No pain is great.

Me too. He is a tough little guy. He just looks like like a muppet that's all.
Done, and yes he did kiss me back. 
Glad you are feeling better. I hope you can return to your regularly scheduled bike rides soon. Walking dogs is quite enjoyable too. So is running with them, well at least when they aren't running in front of cars. Give Sam a kiss from me, will you?
Back to the iJen Wagon topic. I photophop lowered it for you. This should be about an inch or so.

Walking Sam here is cool, big empty 500+ acre farm adjacent to our property where he can run free. Doggies RULE.
