It's the biggest disgrace in the history of college sports. Everyone should be gone starting with Paterno. I'm actually an alumnus of the school. I'm extremely embarrased as I loved the team and was a big fan of Paterno. I believe he knew something as early as the late 90s which was a big part of driving Sandusky out, and once Mcquery saw what he saw for Paterno and Curley and all of them to let that ass go is a disgrace to humanity. For anyone who has ever had kids to let this go as Paterno did and the school president and athletic director is horrid. I guess criminally Joe did nothing wrong, but the whole thing as someone who went there creeps me out to the extreme. The 2nd mile program was heavily promoted and lots of charity events going to it and now knowing it was a front for Sandusky's criminality is horrifying to me. I'm embarrased to be associated with the school. It's simply another in a long list in history of the coverup being as bad as the crime...in this case it is. Penn State copied the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy of just moving the criminal along and doing absolutley nothing simply to protect some crappy legend or something and children become a silly little distraction way, way down on the list. I certainly don't think Joe knew for the majority of Sandusky's tenure, but toward the end it appeared lots of crap was coming out and they absolutely knew which is why Sandusky "resigned"....I think McQueary became part of the firm and wanted to remain part of the firm forever. He's the one on the staff who actually saw it happen. the corporation rules and protecting it is first and foremost. Idiots. Just another example of the ruthlessness of our country and what it has become. the corporation is first and foremost the priority. Individual persons are simply crap. that is how Penn State viewed those minor children, not nearly as important as the corporation. citizen's United baby...that is the country we live in and this Penn State crap is all interelated with all that stuff. IF you have power in this country you can get away with absolutely anything at all. Joe Paterno will be in the press box Saturday. Book it and that's a shame. Dick Cheney will be smiling venom on some TV show selling books, and when his treachery is done Barack Obama will be pulling in a million per speech. Some dimwit selling weed on the street will go to prison. Cool.
