OT - "The best damn school in America"

What a proud day for Title IX , women's rights and humanity in general.

By noon. Based on some political comments already being made and because threads like this usually bring out the LCD. Until then, happy commenting and Baylor sucks!

in the title and the article's caption. She said, "it's the damn best school...." Gives it a completely different meaning... or not. Maybe just weird Texan syntax.

The phrase "tone deaf" absolutely applies here.

It probably is the best college in Waco.  It's not even close to being the best school in Texas though, let alone in America.

Let me get this straight. Baylor had institutional failures at every level of the university with the handling of rape, stalking, harassment, domestic assault, brandishing of handguns and assault. That was just within the athletic department! Its not like all this happened back in the 80's and 90's this is just coming to the light within the last year

 

That coach doesn't think parents should look unkindly to their daughters going there? Not only that but she wants fans / alum to physically assault concerned parents? What a humbled Christian and role model she is. 

 

 

Let's review the scenario going on in her mind: Concerned parent: "I know you're a great basketball coach, but I'm concerned about my daughter's safety on campus. How do I know that a) she won't be assaulted, and b) if she is, the full weight of the university administration will be there to help her?" Coach: "Fuck you, bitch. This scandal is over!" /Hits parent in face Concerned parent: "OK, you've convinced me." Or, to put it in South Park terms: 1. Cover up rapes 2. Hit parents in face 3. 4. Profit

That's setting her sights too low. She's got a great future in Texas politics—with the black leather pants and very high heels at courtside, she's got the family values demographic locked up.

That's

Something from a few years ago http://www.espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/9289080/brittney-griner-says-baylor… She does not sound like someone who I would enjoy being around.

She has. So sad that a woman in a leadership role at Baylor does not see the problems that have occurred there as issues that still need to be addressed. Worse yet, she condones violence towards the parents that are looking out for their children's safety. This school needs the death penalty for all sports programs for the next 20 years.

The way some of the comments in this thread have gone, I'm nervous that some might be thinking, "oh look at the silly Christians...", so I feel compelled to say that the problem with we Christians is not our beliefs. It's that we suck at practicing them. Yes, I say "WE", and if you'll look at my posting history you'll see I'm not cruising for sainthood, but I just hope people get that; just because you call yourselves Christian doesn't mean you're doing a good job being one, and that's not a reflection of the religion, that's just you being a hypocrite. Naturally the same would apply for Muslims, Buddhists, etc.

Mulkey is the original wacko from Waco

What's really depressing is that her incitement to violence is so well received by her audience. I guess there's been more and more of that going around. Sad.

I hope you all realize what it takes for me to say this but...

If I could only choose those two schools, I would send my hypothetical kid to Ohio fkn State 100 times out of 100 before I sent her to Baylor

So I commend her for accepting the fact that they are damned to hell for what they allowed to happen

What Mulky said "Please stop talking about stuff that happened yesterday, I don't care!. I need recruits and I need to win basketball games. If you here anyone bad mouthing baylor, knock them in the head and dont bring up you know what".

I don't have a strong command of irony, but is this not a perfect example in which this woman wants to commit an assault on parents who are worried about their daughter being assaulted? (obviously it's hyperbole, but still pretty tone deaf)

I remember Coach Harbaugh was going to hold a joint satellite camp with Briles. Dodged a bullet on that one in terms of PR even though Coach obviously had no knowledge of what was going on down there.

well there's actual data indicating much shorter attention span, but that's probably true anywhere on the planet that has widespread social media
