Priorities

So you're still wondering how a major university -- a Baptist university, no less -- can lose its moral compass as thoroughly as Baylor did in apparently becoming apologists/enablers for sexual predators and assorted other miscreants in its football program?

This is how.

I mean, it's football. It's Texas, where affluent school districts with their sense of mission completely out of whack do stuff like this. And so of course there's a cadre of rich alumni who want the guy back (Art Briles) who oversaw (or didn't) the prison yard that is Baylor football. Because, dammit, he's a winner! And with a little luck (and some more determined looking the other way) ol' Art could deliver us a national championship!

I mean, it's all about how badly you want it.

And how much you're willing to ignore.
