It’s sad that Paterno is dead.
It’s sad that Paterno’s legacy is ruined.
But he stood by and did nothing. He knew the facts and allowed the perp to be on the PSU sidelines.
100% agree. Joe did nothing..which is as worse as someone becoming a victim in front of your eyes and you just try to ignore the crime. Ah well, rest in peace anyways Joe.
Perhaps Mr. Paterno didn’t do ENOUGH, but you can’t say he did nothing. He admitted as much in his last interview.
I really don’t understand all this bitterness toward Mr. Paterno. The man has gone to God. Whatever his mistakes, the Lord will judge him now. We should stay out if it.
How would you like to go through life doing good, then make one mistake and have people vilify you for that one mistake?
By the way, the allegations against Mr. Sandusky have yet to be proven in a court of law. When did the law change whereby we assume someone is guilty until proven innocent?
Paterno’s legacy is far from ruined. The alumni, former players, current students at Penn State won’t allow that to happen. We will make sure the facts are known regardless of what the media wants.
