Penn State football is a cult.
“We’ll take care of the little punk for you, Coach Sandusky...
I wonder how many football fandoms aren’t, to some extent, cults, cults that fortunately prove harmless until something seriously evil actually happens and then the mentality to which the cults lowered themselves proves unequal to the task of dealing with that evil.
Maybe part of the problem is that they don’t take the consequences to the evildoers to that same level. Sandusky, if not a lot of others who winked and nodded, maybe ought to be chained at the 50-yard line and be the target of many a beer can and cup.
