    Actually this sounds like the same condition just exasperated by the extra conditioning these fat cattle are carrying.

    blue heeler matings

    See I have just the opposite of opinions. I find Border Collies to be stupid hard headed and spastic. Heelers tend to be a little calmer in my opinion. Best dog we ever had was a border collie heeler cross. Sire was a spastic collie dam a little pudgie heeler.

    Freeze branding in rain?

    Don't do it!! wet and or damp cattle do not freeze brand well. it is hard to shear out the brand site. The wet hide causes the brand to smear because the water conducts the cold away from the skin at the brand site. Pick a dry day and do not get in a hurry make sure your irons are really cold it...

    COLLEGE FOOTBALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I got ya. It's all in good sport. I'm not really sold on the pull up and throw. Throwing on the run leads to poor throws and players trying to force things. It also leaves the ball out if they get hit and that causes fumbles. If coverage is good running forces safety's and all to consider QB...
