Listen, no one but members of the Paterno cult give a damn whether the NCAA overreacted, or not . . .

My love for Paul Bear Bryant is just as great if not greater than that of the Paterno cult towards Joe Paterno. But if Bear Bryant had been aware of this going on in Tuscaloosa and had done nothing about it, then I would have been the first one calling for his head.

My love for Crimson Tide football does not trump my love for the innocence and protection of children. Apparently in State College, PA, they see things differently.

If the decision were left to me, I would raze the entire campus and cover the soil with a foot of salt. Then I would take pictures from space to remind the world how the only thing necessary for evil to succeed is when good men do nothing.

In the Navy, you lose your job if your ship runs aground whether it is your fault or not.

Ok, so the PSU football program is not the Navy, I get it . . . but the honorable thing for Paterno to do would have been to resign. Instead, he decided to try and ride it out. Like a politician. And like a politician, trash.

Yeah, and sadly, some on Free Republic don't see it that way either. Amazing.
