I come from a long line of Baylor football fanatics so, I am not the most objective writer. One thing we can all agree on is that this Baylor football team is special. At the end of that magical year dubbed “The Year of the Bear,” a good friend of mine said that Baylor fans should “enjoy it now because we will never see this kind of success again.”

Baylor football unleashed all its weapons on Buffalo when the Bears stomped all over them en route to a 70-13 win. From Bryce Petty’s passing to Bryce Hager’s fumble return that I can only compare to a stampeding mammoth, we hit them with everything we had. One weapon that didn’t get as much press was a little gift from Waco: murderous heat.

It seems Baylor is in a place of being half in the technology world and half out, because many students bring the technology to class and some professors bring the dark of ages past.

Some professors do well with using technology in the classroom such as the projector, response cards and slideshow presentations.

“Street Sharks,” “Supersonic” and “Saved by the Bell” — they are still the primary sources that continue to replenish my fountain of youth.

No matter how old I get, Will’s shenanigans on “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and the sheer pointlessness of games like Donkey Kong and the Super Mario Bros. continue to entertain and intrigue me.

I was pleasantly surprised today when I picked up the Baylor Lariat — as I always do — and saw an article over campus gaming culture. I found the article very insightful and a positive reflection of the gaming subculture that is apparent at Baylor, but I noticed there was an underlying cry of need.

Most transfers can agree that while choosing to go to Baylor may have been an easy decision, the journey getting here was an uphill battle. Once the financial aspect is worked out, another hurdle arrives — transferring credits.

With nearly 500 community college transfers within the student body, Baylor makes it difficult for them to seamlessly transition into their new school.

I have played fantasy football every year since eighth grade and there are some trends that have formed that need to be corrected. I don’t pretend to have any kind of authority on the matter, but my suggestions might make your own fantasy football league a more fun and entertaining environment.

One thing that sucks the fun out of a lot of leagues is when a team owner keeps their default team name. Nobody wants to play Team DeVries. That’s boring. Teams need real names.

Victims of rape and sexual assault now have expanded opportunities on where they can go for treatment and collection of a rape kit thanks to SB 1191 that went into effect on Sept 1.

This bill requires all hospitals with an emergency room have staff trained in basic forensic evidence collection from sexual assault victims.

It is important to note that the standard set in SB 1191 is less rigorous then what is required for Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners. There are currently two SANEs practicing in McLennan County and a total of 312 in the entire state.
