I’m done commenting on the whole thing. Many of you are simply not reading or understanding me. For the 100th and last time, I am neither defending nor supporting Paterno or the other enablers of these heinous crimes. They are worthless pukes. What I am saying is that it is not right to punish current PSU players, students, coaches, and anyone else who benefits from this program by shutting down or temporarily suspending the program. I’m not going to waste my time repeating myself for those who choose not to acknowledge this.

But you are ignoring that other schools have been punished quite severely for violations MUCH less despicable. You’re saying “never mind”.

Punishing athletic programs for cheating & moral failures will ALWAYS hurt innocent bystanders.

You are indeed defending and supporting Paterno. In your first post on the thread you said you wanted a statue of him for your front yard and in your second post you said, of his supporters, “like me they love Joe Paterno” for all the supposedly wonderful things he did. You can’t pretend otherwise now. You have no credibility.

Well that is entirely different argument and you should have made that clear at the outset.

But Penn State isn't helping itself by dragging it's feet in denouncing Paterno and those others who were covering up Sandusky.
