House Bolton – Baylor Bears

House Bolton Words: Our Blades Are Sharp

House Bolton rose to power in the north through treachery and shady alliances. Once bannermen to House Stark, the heads of this house found gold from the Lannisters (along with their buried hatred of the Starks) to be more enticing than honor or loyalty.

It seems there was nothing the late Roose Bolton wouldn’t do to bring his house to prominence, including officially giving his bastard Ramsay his last name (which ended with Ramsay driving a daggar into the gut of Roose).

This is one of the most despised (and now seemingly dead) houses in the show.

Really Baylor is the only fitting choice for this house. While Art Briles and his bosses certainly didn’t flay anyone, their coverup of sexual assault charges has made a wreck of a program which seemed finally to be on the way up.

It’s all about the money and appearances, and Baylor’s leadership sacrificed the good name of a school to bring in that stream of gold. Who knows how long it will take them to recover.
