Bet it’s good.
Wow - is your dad still alive? Wonder what he knew???
WOW - this story may have legs - and if it is true, I hope it does!!! I want all of the scumbags rounded up and prosecuted!
Fixed it for you.
Q:: if an older woman going after a younger man is called a cougar, then what is an older man going after a younger boy called?
A:: a Nittany Lion
I am just wondering, JenB, if there were possible rumors all along? Why would your Dad make that comment if he didn’t hear something along the way?
No, I am not related to Princess Nancy. I am the only Princess in my family.
“I’m glad they fired Paterno, but I still don’t understand the old media’s focus on this. If they were so worried about child rapists, why haven’t they gone after Barney Frank?”
Joe Paterno is a Republican.
What’s happened to the graduate assistant who actually saw the crime?
Isn’t he at least as morally responsible as Paterno was to report the crime to police?
Or is he a Democrat?
First, my dad is an amazing judge of character. It’s scary how often his first impression of someone is right on.
Second, there almost must have been rumors. We lived 2 hours or so from State College, most of his coworkers over the years were Penn State grads. The grand jury stuff from years ago might have leaked out... I don’t really know. Might have to pry a little next time I talk to him. I don’t know.
I didn’t go to Penn State and I haven’t lived in PA for eight years or so, so I don’t know any real details. But a lot of my old friends are really, really shook up about all this.
Don’t overlook the PennState whitewash of Michael Mann’s involvement in ClimateGate.
I’m not sure what you mean?
PFL=Ping for later
RUINS JOE PA’S CAREER????
Sorry, but Joe Pa ruined his career when he failed to do the right thing. I know he was put in a less than desirable position, but while he may have done all he was “legally” required to, (and I still find that dubious) he certainly didn’t do what he was morally required to.
I firmly believe Joe Pa knew this guy was molesting kids at least as early as 1998 when the first investigation took place and Sundusky “retired” in 1999. This whole mess stinks to high heaven, and the cover up and those involved extends WAY beyond just PSU and its staff..
Sandusky was taking a child from school without parental consent.. do you really think someone in that school could not be complicite for something like to have been going on? I know I can’t walk into a school and take a child that isn’t mine out without explicit consent.. can you?
I fully expect at this point that we will find the local police and DA as well were complicit in keeping this quiet as well.
Joe Pa ruined his career, no one else.
Dads can definitely be good judges of character! With something going on this long (and now possibly being talked about as a “ring”) people have heard whispers. Thanks, JenB!
Red flag Number One...I thought it was the law that people in sensitive positions had to take vacations, no matter what.
Sorry, you learn something everyday. :)
Goodness, JenB, give your dad a call and ask him what he meant by calling Paterno a child molester!
That’s an FDIC regulation for all banks..set iup int he 30’s the idea was that is a person wasn’t there for two weeks, any funny stuff would come to light. Today, with the internet, it has no value..
Still recovering from a similar situation at my law firm. Betrayal lasts much longer than the act itself.
Some companies will lock out a person’s access while they are on vacation, they can’t even access their company email while they are away.
