I knew this was coming. I watched all week as people bought the big lie that it was all Paterno's fault even though Spanier's hands were all over this scandal from 1995 to the present.

Some people kept saying that Spanier will be indicted, and then look at this. It was the gay-friendly environment brought to PSU by Spanier not the football team that protected Sandusky. Spanier made sure that Sandusky's charity stayed on campus and had everything it needed -- including little boys.

How pathetic. The people of Happy Valley should be screaming bloody murder that this pervert is going anywhere but jail.

I have never seen any post either in newspaper forums or here at free republic that inferred that anything was all Paterno’s fault.

I have seen many posts that a whole lot of people did things very wrong and every one of them deserve to be punished so that something as bad as over a decade of child rape doesn't get covered up again.

Paterno wasn't singled out.

He just hasn't been given a pass, no matter how bad those who worshiped him want him to be given a pass. They insisted that as bad as incriminating as the evidence that came out in Sandusky’s trial was, somehow later information would exonerate him. Well, its later, and every piece of new information makes him look worse and worse.

Make no mistake. I want Spanier, Shultz, and Curley to face trial. Possibly the counsel at the time, and certainly the current president who gave Sandusky emeritus status outside what the universities bylaws called for when Sandusky was shit-canned.

And whoever else is uncovered as the cases go to court with the victims that are coming foreword now.

I also want the students who demolished the news van at the Paterno riots to face charges for that.

One more thing.

Football is just a game.

ALL Paterno's fault? Ridiculous. You won't find a single post in which I've suggested that - and no informed FR poster has said that either.

You're just not willing to admit that Paterno was part of the cover-up and probably called the shots much of the time.

Spanier will be indicted.

Just give up on your delusion. Joe Paterno knew and was part of this.
