As [Baylor ponders] what to do [about a football player filmed savagely beating his dog], let’s not forget Queso the cat, murdered and mutilated by Baylor baseball players, and Baylor basketball player Patrick Dennehy, shot twice in the head by his teammate Carlton Dotson. And then there are the victims of sexual assault handled so well in house.
Another local reader admires Baylor’s contributions to the Baptist faith.
For a Christian school, Baylor needs to clean up its act! A fancy new stadium doesn’t mean anything when the alumni are willing to ignore athletes who rape women and beat dogs!
Rumors abound that Baylor is finally going to go the honesty route. They are apparently working on an official statement that will go something like this:
Do you want to win? Then stand by our rapists, animal abusers, and murderers.
Do you want to lose? Then tie the hands of our recruiting coach.
It’s your call, Waco.

The point can be made that what occurs with Baylor football is outta da hands of alumni, students, the BOT, Southern Baptist denomination, etc. When the school spent $266 million to build Mclane Stadium and borrowed most of that money to build “a work of art,” then the bondholders are going to be making the call. They want their debt to be serviced, and if both helpless animals and females are attacked, then so be it. Just get a god damn team on the field, get your share of the conference broadcasting right’s money, play well enough so that the sociopaths are selected to a post-season bowl, keep your debt current, and shut the hell up. This is bidness…..
