    yesh I’m not sure why people have been hung up on the dog. I get it. He’s on the road a good bit and away from family, the dog can help him feel more at home and is good for anxiety/depression. Dude may be a douche but bringing his buddy with him on the road and letting him go into stadiums and do cool dog stuff there doesn’t seem like something to be upset with.

    if that was the extent of it, Id fully agree with your post.

    But thats not the full extent, dog is present more than just familial companionship. The dog is literally pawing for treats and trying to jump up onto the college gameday desk. And in the camera shot begging to retrieve a tennis ball while I am trying to watch Saban explain film.

    Nick brings Miss Terry on the road frequently. But I never see Nick have Terry sit in his lap on the gameday set or say come sit next to me while talk ball with Dan Lanning.

    You lose your benefit of the doubt in having your emotional support dog for your anxiety on set of your multi million dollar production of the sport you basically control when you don’t think other people have the right to live their own lives.

    This made the lie fairly obvious. "Son" obviously sounds more believable but he committed to "buddy" first and you would never call your son a buddy.
