Thanks for your kind post. It's a good post and I agree with your sentiments completely.

1998 wasn't simple.

No, it wasn't. Not at all. The 2002 incident that was kinda sorta witnessed by the cowardly 28-year-old assistant, McQueary (who then couldn't keep his own story straight), was not at all simple, either. I maintain that when it comes to accusing somebody of being a homosexual pedophile, you better see it with your own two eyeballs or AT LEAST have a victim come forward to point the finger. That never happened, and McQueary was totally unreliable.

None of this was simple, and that's why I have no respect for those morons who smugly claim Paterno is rotting in hell, as if he KNEW Sandusky was raping young boys. Paterno KNEW no such thing. Sandusky fooled literally hundreds of people, including Paterno. That's what homosexual pedophiles do - - they fool people.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, hindsight is 20/20. Paterno said that in hindsight he wished he had done more, and I believe him. I wonder how many scores of other people who associated on a regular basis with Sandusky right up until last freaking year wished they had, in hindsight, done more? I will never believe, as the smug simpletons around here with their 20/20 hindsight pretend to believe, that Paterno KNEW Sandusky was raping young boys and decided to just let it go on for the good of the football program. Gimme a break.

Either McQueary was a credible witness reporting yet ANOTHER incident of Sandusky in the shower with a young boy - or he was not a credible witness and made up weird stuff about a trusted friend of Paterno.

Would you hire someone who reported seeing a friend of yours having sex in the shower with a young boy if you did not believe him? Would you keep him employed at your organization for the next decade plus?

What is known is that he was soon thereafter HIRED by Paterno as an assistant coach and employed by him over the next ten years.

What is known is that nothing was done to stop Sandusky for the next ten years.

What is known is that Sandusky would often be seen in the company of young men over the next ten years.

Now nobody knows if Paterno gave McQueary a job to stay silent - but it sure as hell looks that way.

McQueary was totally unreliable

So unreliable that Paterno made him his starting quarterback before his outcry against Sandusky, and after his outcry against Sandusky, Paterno found him so unreliable that he gave McQueary a full time position on his coaching staff.

I will never believe, as the smug simpletons around here with their 20/20 hindsight pretend to believe, that Paterno KNEW Sandusky was raping young boys and decided to just let it go on for the good of the football program.
