Do you know anything about Joe Paterno? Do you know how many of his players went on to do great things - because of his insistence that they be more than football players? The Grand Experiment and Success with Honor weren't make believe. They happened.

His legacy is what Jimmy Cefalo says it is. None of you - nor anyone in the media - can change that even with your wild imaginations and vindictiveness.

I suspect he stayed quiet because he liked to knock off a piece himself once in a while.

Didn't Sandusky also say his "kids" benefited from his help?

Oh, please. He didn’t mold squat. The people who played for him and went on to success would have been successful regardless of who their coach was. Stop making an icon out of a man who isn’t worthy of it. Your hero worship is infantile.

Ok, so some one comes up to you and says “ Yeah, I knew your son was being ass-raped by a creepy old pedophile, but hey, I won a lot of football games”
And your reaction would be, “That’s cool, can I have your autograph”...THat really makes you pretty sick yourself...
