That was not his place to do that.

The hell it wasn't. Paterno should have called the police immediately and confronted Sandusky. Paterno admitted he should have done more. The whole administration and authority figures were gutless, dishonorable and disgusting, just as are their defenders.

No -- McCreary should have if what he saw was serious??? But he didn't.

He told his father that night but his father didn't call the police. And then he told the family doctor and he didn't call the police. Neither of them saw it as that serious enough to call the police.

Why the double standard???

Paterno admitted he should have done more.

Sure -- with the benefit of hindsight you should have done more too, but we don't get those benefits in this life.

The whole administration and authority figures were gutless, dishonorable and disgusting, just as are their defenders.

Ohhh my -- and their defenders too. So then only their accusers are honorable. Is that what you think??? Are you exemplifying some kind of honor by launching accusations but those you are accusing are not allowed the right to defend themselves.

Have you read your Constitution lately or what history tells us about what happens when people engage in diatribes like that.
