Yes. I have a hatred for corruption and child molestation. My life is happy and I'm a very happy non-angry person. Don't judge me.

You specifically said you hope the whole school goes bankrupt. Why would you want that? Thousands of kids with ZERO to do with this would have their college life ruined, thousands of people would lose jobs...

The only people who should suffer for this are the ones who had knowledge of it and didn't act accordingly. And of course Sandusky. But the truth of the matter is, plenty of people that had nothing to do with the scandal are going to suffer as well, which is a shame.

Why wish bankruptcy on the school??

The child molester had access to the school up to last week. I can't wait till they get buried in civil suits. Hope the school goes bankrupt.

I did say that, but I should have clarified my intent. The reason they hid this was to protect the big money football program. It is a shame that many people are going to have to lose their jobs on the football staff over this. (I imagine they'll clean out the whole lot of them at the end of year) I also feel bad for the current football players there. But guess what? None of what they have to go through even touches what those kids and parents have to go through.

Joe Paterno is garbage. All he apparently cared about was wining and setting meaningless records. I wonder if the fcking clowns at the NCAA are going to punish the school the same way they would punish them if the players were getting paid or some such.

I proposed earlier that Penn State receive a 4 year ban similar to USC. If I recall correctly newer students at USC were given the option to transfer within the FBS without the normal eligibility consequences. I imagine if the banhammer does get laid down that Penn States players would have similar options.

The thing about that is no NCAA violations occurred so I don't see how any sanctions could occur against their football program.

It is unfortunate. I would hope that would make the penalty for those who caused the innocent - beyond the actual victims of Sandusky - much much stiffer than mere forced resignation. Joe Pa may have done a world of good during his tenure, but his (and others) actions/non-actions hurt many in the past and will hurt others in the future b/c of the reprecussions.

Just deplorable.

Well I mean lets be honest kids. Giving a young man a Cadillac or paying them a $100 an hour to mow the lawn is much worse then having a major case of pedophilia slip your mind.

What I want to know is whats the deal with the witness. Why did he go to just Joe Pa and University officials? If I was above the age of 10 I would be sure to contact the police.

You can't punish the people who had nothing to do with it. No way they shut down the program. That's ridiculous.

Unbelievable...I guess they too would rather have a child molester around impressionable young men than embarrass the football program.

I hope thier football program is gutted to the point of no recovery.
