We don't know what Paterno was told or if McQueary is covering his ass, and we don't know what the AD told Paterno after the investigation.ccrunner609;964229 wrote:Not illegal but immoral..........even worse in this case. His silence on the matter is deafening. His lack of leadership in this matter tells me that he feels like sodemy of little kids is ok, raping little boys in "HIS" locker room is just fine for him.
Sure it goes both ways. That doesn't make it any less crazy to espouse that belief. You can say Paterno should be locked up and sodomized, and I could argue that Sandusky should be sentenced to 3 years maximum (Please don't spin my hypothetical argument here because I'm not arguing that at all). They're both completely ridiculous and extreme views, albeit on opposite ends of the spectrum.2kool4skool;964006 wrote:It goes both ways, you can believe someon growing marijuana doesn't deserve 5 years in prison, just as you can believe someone who covers for a child molester, resulting in more children being raped, deserves further punishment than being allowed to resign from his job and live out his years comfortably with his millions.
Yeah...right.ccrunner609;964243 wrote:on the interweb.....no not really. THis is all fake.
In real life, I am morally sound.

Yeah we do. Read the report.

BUT, we don't know that for sure yet and I'm not about to want the guy who was known as the cleanest coach ever to resign until I know those two things.
lol so what is the maximum that he can deserve "rationally." A dignified resignation and retirement?Mulva;964242 wrote:You can argue that he deserves anything you want, but that doesn't make it rational to do so.
Oh, is that what we're going to believe happened now? Just keep me updated so I know which excuse Paterno defenders are using. First, it was authorities are "commending" him for his cooperation(lol) now it's McQueary is lying about what he told him because......well that parts not important.There would also be a big difference, in my opinion, between witnessing something first hand and simply reporting it up the line and hearing a possibly watered-down version of events after the fact and doing the same.
Dude it's worthless. These hypocrites have no patience to hear what Joe Pa has to say. The same people who wanted everyone to hear Tressel's side are the one's calling for Joe Pa's head without anything as much as a statement.Tobias Fünke;964240 wrote:BUT, we don't know that for sure yet and I'm not about to want the guy who was known as the cleanest coach ever to resign until I know those two things.
Do you honestly believe that Paterno was not aware of TWO incidents (1998 and 2002) where people witnessed Sandusky in the shower with a child, committing sexual acts; incidents that were reported to campus police? Really?Skyhook79;964250 wrote:Do you know everything that goes on at YOUR school?
Check yourself Tier 3 boy. Some of us know a little bit about law, and a bit more about morals, and even more about how things will turn out.lhslep134;964264 wrote:Dude it's worthless.

Truly pathetic and embarrassing for you hypocrites.
And give the guy his day in the court of public opinion. Isn't that the same sort of sentiment you argued for Tressel? LulzWriterbuckeye;964268 wrote:

True. Going to be funny to watch his senile ass stumble and mumble his way through the "retirement" press conference. Hopefully the shame the Paterno name now carries can serve as a consolation, however small, for those that were raped because he did nothing.Big Gain;964274 wrote:His punishment will be to die a pitiful, lonely old man shorty after being shown the door.

You're a clown because you refuse to even acknowledge the possibility that Joe Pa knew less than he did by crucifying him. Sorry, but logically that doesn't square.
You really want to compare child rape and a coach covering it up with a coach lying to the NCAA about selling merchandise for tats?lhslep134;964271 wrote:And give the guy his day in the court of public opinion. Isn't that the same sort of sentiment you argued for Tressel? Lulz
Because it goes without saying, and his punishment is not up in the air.Skyhook79;964227 wrote:JoePa is a Public official? Whats amazing to me is the absolute hatred for Joe Paterno and hardly any mention of the man who actually committed the acts.
I want to talk about giving the other side their f**king chance you hypocrite. You criticized EVERYONE who jumped on Tressel right away, and now you're jumping on Joe Pa right away. In this sense, severity is irrelevant. You are hypocrisy at it's FINEST.Writerbuckeye;964282 wrote:You really want to compare child rape and a coach covering it up with a coach lying to the NCAA about selling merchandise for tats?
