Re: Paterno's role in covering up Sandusky's child molestations grows as evidence lea
I agree. Like everyone else. I am angry these victims were totally written off to protect that POS Sandusky. But I can't blame Penn State football program for this. This was not the football culture. This was coward adults trying to protect someone who used to be affliated with the football program. IMO, these dumb arses could have actually made Joe Pa look like a hero if they had just did the right thing and told the police and said it was Joe Pa who came to them with this. Joe Pa fired Sandusky in 99 for a reason. Dude was not even that old then. I remember being shocked that he stepped down as the DC. But most just wrote it off as him being tired of waiting on Joe Pa to retire. Now we know the truth. Joe found out his arse was a pedophile in the late 90s and let him go. I kind of think like Jag89 on this. I think Sandusky had something on people bigger than Joe Pa in that area. Because it was no reason why they couldn't have thrown him under the bus and ran over his pedophile arse. I certainly believe the rumors that Sandusky was setting them boys out to other power men in that region or state that may even have went to bat for Joe to stay at Penn State when that Board was trying to rid themselves of him. I think there is more to it, outside of the football program. But that is just me.
Everyone affiliated with Penn St. athletics did not hide it so why punish all? They suspended the entire band because there was something deeply rooted in the structure. So you would suspend the entire athletic department?
