No longer disappointed

If you're going to be a committed Baylor fan you just have to get used to the idea that it's going to be a year full of ups and downs. For example, Week 1: Big win; Week 2: Big Loss; Week 3: Big Win! It's a roller coaster that I just can't seem to get off. If the team's playing in Waco, it's even harder for me to stay away.

After last week's disappointment I had no intention of going to yesterday's game, but had already secured tickets for the October 3rd game. When I got the tickets in the mail on Friday afternoon I was pleasantly surprised to find a couple bonus tickets for yesterday's game. Aren't Baylor people nice? I thought about giving them away, although I didn't know who would want them, but the Bears pulled me back in and I was able to find two more boys to enjoy the game with...

After visiting the Bears on campus and showing Landry that there was no way they could hurt him (this was our entire conversation on the way to Waco), we enjoyed a little pre-game fun...




The boys were totally into the game. They did the Sic 'em Bears, sang the fight song, and yelled at all the appropriate times. It truly made my heart happy! Once the game was very much under control (we were winning 41-7) we headed home. The boys quickly fell asleep and I was able to listen to the rest of the game on the radio. No disappointment this week, we won 68-13 and scored more points than any other college team yesterday!

It was a great day and I'm already looking forward to next week!
