Dr. Mark Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I am a huge football fan, and this is just some sad-ass shit right here. http://thefreehreportonpsu.com/ For those of you who have been living under a rock, it turns out that Joe Paterno, the head football coach at Penn State University, was part and parcel of a cover-up of Jerry Sandusky, his former heir-apparent, who turned out to be a sexual predator and serial child molester. The good-guy-coach who was not going to "leave college football to the Jackie Sherrills and Barry Switzers of the world" turned out to be a rat bastard. Not only did he help cover it up, and let the bastard continue to use the athletic department facilities (which Sandusky utilized to groom his victims, and even raped them IN THE ATHLETIC COMPLEX), Paterno then lied to the grand jury about it. I want to vomit. The bad thing is, I think it could happen anywhere in big-time college athletics, where there is big money and bigger egos. But maybe not. Hopefully not. Hopefully, this is a case of one coach who became a legend, and then became bigger than the university, and did whatever he had to do to protect his program's 'good name' from bad publicity. God, I hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satuit Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I wanted to believe that "Old Joe" was so out of it at the end he had no idea what was going on, kind of like Eddie Robbinson of Grambling State, but I think he did. My friend, who loves the Univeristy and wore a Penn St cap since 1993 until last year, and I agree he should have done more. Mike McQueary should have never stopped punching Sandusky in the face if he knew about it. Kind of like the father down in Texas last month. I could be wrong..............I'm just a newbie.

hasbin Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I am not a Joepa or a Penn State fan, But I wouldn't kill the program as the athletes that are there have worked their whole lives to get there. I would remove any & all likeness of Paterno along with clean house in the administration that knew about & kept secret that a pedophile was on staff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustrtal Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Been in the news on a daily basis round here. It was a shock when joe got the boot but they obviously knew more than they were willing to let on at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
