BearMeat: Still Dead


Several weeks ago, sadly, Red Andrews announced his retirement over at BearMeat, Waco's goofiest sports blog. Since he had two collaborators, we fans thought that the blog would continue, but now it seems positively, permanently dead.

Baylor has its strong points, and one that often surprises me is the ability of Baylor people (most of them, anyways) to laugh at themselves. The Noze Brothers are an ancient tradition, relatively, and a good one. Any institution which concerns itself at any level with morality or religion needs that leavening influence of humor to avoid becoming stiff and removed from real life, and Baylor is lucky to have a bit of self-deprecation as part of its many traditions.

Comments:
Didn't get to haiku yesterday, so . . .

It's hard to pass up
Dessert, in so many forms:
All that chocolate,

Cakes, cookies, cheese straws,
Feel like love, prepared to say
What we can't in words.
