In part of what may or may not be an on-going column, this week we have decided to ask two people who know almost nothing about sports for fantasy football advice, mainly just for the sweet, sweet taste of irony.

Baylor fans have plenty to follow this weekend as several teams are in action: men’s tennis will be home Friday, Saturday and Sunday for their season opener in the HEB Invitational, women’s cross country competes Friday at the Toledo Inter-Regional Bubble Buster meet in Toledo, Ohio, and on Sunday and Monday, women’s golf will be at the Dick Maguire Invitational tournament in Albuquerque, N.M.

My love relationship with sports began when I was little, dressed in a Michael Jordan jersey seated on my dad’s lap. It has grown over the years as my dad has introduced me to different ones. I remember watching the Cowboys in the late 90’s, sharing the frustrations of my dad with the lack of athletic ability on the field. I remember fighting off sleep as I watched the Dallas Stars win the Stanley Cup in 1999. I remember my first Texas Rangers’ game and the excitement the atmosphere brought.

The Longhorns and the Wildcats are the matchups the Bears will be granted this weekend. Baylor soccer (7-2-1) will continue Big 12 play on the road when it faces the University of Texas Longhorns (6-2) at 7 p.m. today in Austin. Then they will travel back up I-35 to play host to the Weber State Wildcats (2-6) at 1 p.m. Sunday on Betty Lou Mays Field.

Despite their efforts, the Lady Bears’ volleyball team could not keep #25 Oklahoma from their first Big 12 win; however Baylor gave them a run for their money with a 3-1 match (25-22, 24-26, 26-24, 25-18.)

Baylor is mostly known for its offensive threat, led by Heisman-candidate quarterback Robert Griffin III.

Drive down Interstate 35 heading southbound and you will see an interesting new billboard. It’s in the ugliest strangest color too: maroon.

Lightning stopped the game but not the Bears, as they defeated Stephen F. Austin 48-0 after three quarters.
