My "find" function found not a single instance of the character string "homo" ? Is that it?
Wow, someone nailed it, seven months ago.
But here’s the thing: Paterno has been carrying this dirty little secret inside him for years, yet he’s consistently put more value on the football program (and the $91 million it brings in every year) more than doing the right thing for those boys. That’s what makes me want to puke. This isn’t something he just found out about 2 weeks ago, it’s been a conscious choice for years.
This was April. So confident was the Penn St. gang that this would be covered up too, Sandusky still had access to the place and to children through October.
I can understand why Penn State wanted to keep this scandal quiet and not report it to the police. But what I don’t understand is why they let Sandusky keep his privileges and have access to the facilities after he “retired.” Why didn’t they ban him from everything associated with Penn State to cover their a——?
I would like to know if Everett M. “Busy” Arnold payed tuition to Brown University for only JoePa.
JoePa - He gave the commencement address at Penn State in 1973, telling the gathered graduates “Money alone will not make you happy. Success without honor is an unseasoned dish.”
There is more than enough blame to go around, and I find the people who knew repugnant. The one person left out of this barrage of moralistic journalism, missing in all things liberal, is the assistant that was an eye witness to such a horrific act. No one writes or talks about the act itself. That is the vile part of this story. God forbid the media has to take a principled stand on the homosexual pedophilia staring them in the face. How do you ignore the elephant in the room?
The guy was still on the staff until a few days ago.He should have beaten the hell out of the perp with what ever was available before he could get his clothes on. Why does he get a pass in the reportage. He is a co-conspirator in my judgment.
Paterno better worry about the DA's investigation in Bexar county, Texas with regards to Sandusky taking a boy with him to the 1999 Alamo Bowl. Nobody in south Texas is going to give a damn about protecting Sandusky, Paterno, or Penn State. I doubt Texas is the only place out of state that Sandusky took boys for sexual purposes. There are 10 other member schools of the Big Ten that were located outside of Pennsylvania during the time Sandusky was a coach at Penn State. Penn State played in lots of bowl games, and I don't think a single one was played in the state of Pennsylvania. There are lots of DA's and federal prosecutors all over the US who might be interested in pursuing a case against Sandusky and other others from Penn State.
