Around the Dog Park: The season never stops

As you all know, we do not cover P5 football here. If we mention them, it is in hopes of us stealing one of their recruits. But, I think an exception can be made here. Rest in peace to Tyler Hilinski, quarterback for Washington State University. The coroner ruled that his death was a suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling and contemplating suicide, please know that you are not alone. There are people and resources to help including the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (1-800-273-8255).
