[QUOTE="BrewingFrog, post: 2948853, member: 28"] I stand second to none in my disgust at Baylor and it's actions through the years. All of what you say is true, but my vein of bile was primarily aimed at the relevant authorities who have as their charge the policing of the ethics of the Universities they minister to. In the case of Penn State, the State jumped in pretty quickly, and the School and Alumni reacted with absolute horror at the revelations. Joe Pa's statue was torn out and is presumably still mouldering in a closet somewhere in State College, covered by a tarp. For all I know, it's remains might be holding nitro and primer in my gun safe... In contrast to Penn State and their reaction to the horrors done, the Baylor Community has closed ranks and supported #CAB. "It was all a plot by the Longhorns, don'tcha see." Those people are utterly delusional, and while I lamented the punishment of players and coaches who had nothing to do with the situation the punishment is presumably being meted out for, the fanbase and alumni will indeed suffer shame and humiliation galore. Cold comfort to the victims, of course, but satisfying on one small level I suppose. The State of Texas did involve the Rangers in investigating the goings-on in Waco, after the conduct of the County Attorney in McLennan County. He was un-elected soon after. The new guy is said to be more helpful. The stink got to be too bad for even Paxton to sit around whiffing. Oh, and you left out the mutilated family pets. Let's keep our outrages in order, shall we?
