What the frick?
I'm not even sure what you're trying to say with that second sentence.

Waiting for Pattersons comment on the TCU TE in 2006 take a cheap shot on a Baylor DL (LeQuantum McDonald) and ENDED his career.
Blocking a guy low away from the play and injuring his knee (which didn't even draw a flag by the way) is not the same a KO-ing a defenseless receiver then laughing about it on the sideline with coaches and players while refusing the leave the field post ejection and taunting the opponent, then your coach talking smack in the post-game handshake about the opposing coaching staff pointing out to officials that the ejected player is still on the field.
Hardly the same thing. One was also yesterday and the other was 7 years ago.

Why is there no video of Dixon refusing to leave the sideline and of Briles coming across the field? I scoured the internet and could not find it. Why is this not already on Youtube? Someone post a link to that video if you can find it.

No. Just a year where your QB is revealed to be a drunk driving, coke sniffing maniac
He never tested positive for drugs, never was caught with drugs, but admitted to trying cocaine and ecstasy in the past--he was then given weekly drug tests, which he passed. Immediately after getting a DWI, he was kicked off the team and suspended from the university. He was only allowed to come back after completing inpatient rehab and a strict testing program that is still in place to this day for him. He also had a negative drug screen at the time of his arrest, so it would seem he really was clean other than booze.
Are you really trying to use that as an example of how NOT to handle your team? I can't imagine how it could've been handled better. I think providing a second chance and allowing him to clean up and prove his commitment was the absolute best way to handle it.
You baylor queers can't even deflect well.

The commentators talked about the laughing and taunting during the game for quite some time. Patterson was talking about the handshake, and you could clearly see words exchanged during the game.

Not true, Matt Millen questioned why he was still on the sideline. Never once did the commentators say anything about Dixon "laughing or taunting" on the sideline.
but hey, whatever makes you feel better about your 4-8 season.

Exactly the same as having basketball players murder teammates and the baseball team torturing cats. Lets not get started on an A&M cadet getting beat to death in your stadium.

I'd be a lot more upset if 4-8 had been the norm since the turn of the millennium, rather than it being an aberration. A good season has been a long time coming for y'all. What a shame that it won't even earn y'all your first conference title in a third of a century, much less a BCS bowl. Maybe y'all will win some more individual awards that you can hang your hat on. That'll be just as good.

As someone who spent time at Baylor, I can tell you that place is the master of situational ethics. One of the reasons I left.
Look, everybody knows Briles coaches his players to play dirty. He was famous for it at Houston. I'm sorry he lost his brother, but it does not change the fact that he is a jerk. "Is that an A&M question?"
No, Art, it is a Willie Lyles question.
Which brings me to the next point, I was worried that the Lyles stuff would follow him to BU, and it looks like it has. That's how he landed Kendal Wright, Dixon (who, honestly, should have been ejected several times this year, dreadlocks dirty and it is also how Lache got steered to BU after having to leave Oregon. And Lache had to leave Oregon because of the Willie Lyles investigation.
Lyles caused headaches in Baton Rouge too. He is a bum who feeds on kids. And the reality that Briles was using that service is a bit unsettling.
This is why Mack Brown, Bob Stoops and others (including Patterson who alluded to this in his coments) area avoiding some of the 7 on 7 camps that street agents like Lyles are using. Lyles and Flenory had a nice little scam going on that one. Get paid 25000 from a school to deliver a 5000 package as a front. AND make money off the duped parents.
I saw where someone posted that somebody else is upset because they could not get into Baylor.
That's laughable considering most of us went there because we did not get in elsewhere first.
I guess if Oregon and Baylor do meet in a bowl, they can call it the Willie Lyles 7 on 7 Bowl. If Baylor loses, ole Art can just change the score on the rings again.

Most people forget about how they beat that kid to death. When I was at Baylor, there was a guy who killed someone while drunk driving. His Daddy's money got him out of it. People in Waco, most of which don't really care that much about Baylor, were pretty angry about it.
It is entirely possible that there are more Aggie grads in Waco than Baylor grads. I swear, they are everywhere there.

Baylor is doing nothing different than all of the big time programs, including all of the SEC sans maybe Vandy.
Baylor has recently made a huge commitment to athletics and a commitment to winning, which is pissing off a lot of folks in the area, most notably Gary Patterson

Stop, you only make us look bad. First, by proving my point about situational ethics.
Second, by not really knowing anything about schedules and teams.
Patterson had half his team hurt and they still outplayed us. We escaped, barely. We had a soft front loaded schedule. Okie State violated us like a tri delt as Sig Nu party.
TCU just got their qb back, who has only played about 7 games in 2 years. They are missing 3 key defensive players, had two offensive lineman go down for the year at the start of the season, and are missing a key running back. And they only really got blown out in one game. All others they took to the wire or the final minutes. TCU will likely be back in more than good form next year. They've started a lot of young people that last 2 years.
Had they not given us 21 on easy positioned turnovers, we'd all be publicly questioning what we already thought after laying an egg to the pokes. Why did we pay 4 million to a guy who has not won the conference or gotten us to a BCS bowl?
Top 10 teams don't have that kind of trouble with a 4 win injured team. Baylor is getting cocky about one high win season. I would advise we don't throw the tarp away just yet.

I know the conversation has moved way past this now, but am I the only one not bothered by the original hit in the slow-mo gif on page 1?
I've seen enough Baylor football this year to know that Dixon has earned his reputation as a head-hunter, but this hit doesn't look all that special to me. I mean the TCU WR is in the air coming down at him. He's naturally going to brace himself and even try to deliver whatever hit he can at that point. I just don't really see the launching toward the head that warrants an ejection. Maybe full speed paints a different picture.

Wow a school with 50,000 students outnumbers the alumni from a school of 15,000 students. You don't say!

Have you not noticed BU's injuries?
Besides, TCU outplaying Baylor has nothing to do with the point I was trying to make. You brought up questionable/situational ethics and I said that Baylor isn't doing anything that the other top programs aren't doing.
TCU outplaying Baylor in a game has nothing to do with Baylor's commitment to winning. As another poster mentioned, Gary Patterson need to worry about his own program, he comes off as a whiny bitch. I remember he was crying about LSU not suspending their RB before the season started
