Re: Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State
Really? 40 counts of sexual misconduct? Adopted kids at home? And he gets bail?

After hearing it in more vivid details today what happened that day in the showers, I wouldn't mind if they walked the whole lot of them out in shackles. Screw the BS college football coach prestige. The weakest man in the world sees that and immediately grabs a bat and just sees red on Sandusky for about 2 minutes, then directly calls the cops. And this dude just walks away and lets it continue and tells daddy Paterno the next day. Unreal.

Penn State Nittany Lions to name committee to review sex-abuse scandal - ESPN
In other words. They are putting on some farce "investigation" to buy Joe Paterno enough time to finish the season. They aren't going to fire him most likely. If I had a kid that played at Penn State, he wouldn't play another game for Joe Paterno. In fact, how in the hell can they let that guy go out there and coach Saturday?

On ESPN? I saw that interview/speech by him, he came to tears at one point. The whole thing is very sad for all parties involved. When a child is abused like that it creates a awful ripple effect in the lives it ruins. Ever watch Intervention? A lot of the times, I say 6 out of 10 times, the addict has a history of sexual abuse and is using drugs/alcohol to mask that pain and their addiction is destroying the family unit as well all from the selfish act of the sexual predator.

Re: Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State
He's resigning at season's end. He seems to be dressing this up as some sort of punishment for himself, when I think many expected that this would be his last season anyway. It almost seems preemptive on his part, as a way to subvert a mid-season firing. Fail.

Re: Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State
Even now the handling of the situation by the university is sickening. Joe and everyone that was involved should be shown the door immediately.

Re: Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State
Even now, the school still decides the money is bigger than the issues they are currently facing. You want to know why this kind of corruption and sickening behavior angers me? Here you go. Nobody cares, especially the people that should.

Agreed. I wish the student body would take a stand or show some sort displeasure on Saturday during the game that the school is handling this wrong. they won't though becasue they are all so brain washed there. Those people supporting him at his house last night? WTF???? IT be great if everyone boycotted the game, won't happen but it be great.

Re: Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State
Yup. It's amazing. The story is out, yet they still don't know how to act. F that end of season, retirement, etc. crap. Let him go now. If you're a player in that lockerroom, and lets say hypothetically one of them was sexually abused as a youngster, how could you look at your coach knowing that he knew things like that were happening and he let it continue?

Re: Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State
Agree, he should step down immediately, but I kinda felt this is how it would end.
Dont blame Joe Pa, blame the Penn State Molester U. and Admin with not having the balls to take a stance against this kinda behavior. Kinda sickening, and I believe Molester State University did everything in its power to protect Paterno from the authorities. Again its sickening.
