Ugh.. The_Dude.. You are making me sick to my stomach! I am not sure why everyone in Austin has it out for Baylor. Actually, people in Austin (I am generalizing here) tend to be very narrow-minded when it comes to other teams. I live here so I have to live with it every day. I am not a UT fan, btw. It is funny. though, because I see UT fans being the biggest "fairweather" fans of any other place I have been to.
When UT is winning, this town goes crazy. When they aren't, UT gets very little support. Oh well. I am used to it. I have been here a while.
About Baylor: I lived in Waco for 18 years. I supported them because I lived there. I am not an alumni or huge Baylor fan, but they were fun to watch. The misconception is that they aren't good at anything. Baylor fans are constantly having to try to "prove" their worthiness. It tends to get old. Baylor has a great track team. They are good at golf and they are even good at baseball. They are competitive in EVERY single sport except for football and basketball. They were actually doing better in basketball, too, until all of this crap happened. For you to say that they are worthless is narrow-minded and short-sighted. The Cowboys have sucked for the last 7-8 years. Should we kick them out of the NFL? I think it is great how a school as small as Baylor can comete with UT and Nebraska in most sports. I will find a stat for you and post it up regarding their "worthiness" in big 12 sports. I am sure you will be shocked.
As for Bliss, it isn't Baylor's fault what he did. In fact, if dumbass Dotson wouldn't have killed someone, none of this would be happening right now. Bliss was a respected coach from SMU, who had a good basketball program. Don't blame Baylor for his mistakes.
Let me let you in on a little secret. UT is not God. They will choke, like they always do in football, this year. Mark my words on that.
