I agree the 2 detectives and investigator should have done their jobs in 1998.

And as I said, in 2002, PSU admins could have really helped out little boys had they been more forthcoming with the information they were presented. I don't think we are in disagreement here. They tried covering up. I think the only thing we disagree on is whether or not how deep JoePa's involvement is. But I think it is safe to say that a cover-up was definitely in full effect in State College.

What a fucking coincidence. We were just playing sexy games in the shower. All of them are conspiring to convict me. #JerrySanduskyExcuses

The "if all of this is untrue, you seem to be the most persecuted person in the history of the world, why is that?" was classic. Good job by Costas.

Saw something on the ESPN bottom line that apparently the defense team thinks they found the 2002 victim and he may be denying the GJ assault report.

This however corroborates McQueary's claim that he saw the two in the shower, and Sandusky knows who we was then and now. Even taking this in the most positive light it doesn't absolve criminal liability for the charge. McQueary's account was partially inaccurate? A guy who is now 18-22 years old might want to consider toning down what happened to him?

A person sexually atracted to young boys.

Sandusky already said that in the NBC interview. He said they were in the shower just that the rape never occurred and that Costa would have to ask McQueary why he said what he said about the incident.

Sandusky is using the famous "Clinton Defense"..."I did not have sex with that boy"

And your point is what? Do you think it is perfectly normal for a guy to shower with a boy that at that time period when no one else was supposed to be around? It is still potentially criminal behavior.

Dan Wetzel has been merciless with this interview:

http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/news?slug=dw-wetzel_sandusky_interview_mindset11411

Key point:

"If Sandusky truly thought at the time this was even remotely appropriate, why did he continually wait until the Penn State locker room was empty to shower with the boys?

If there was nothing wrong, then why not try it in front of everyone?"

In no testimony, from anyone is that Sandusky tried to pull this stunt in public.

My point is Sandusky isn't denying he was in the shower with the boy so corroborating what McQuaeary said about being in the shower is a moot point. What is at dispute is was he raping the boy. McQuaery says yes, Sandusky says no. And no I don't think it is normal to shower with a boy at 9:30 at night on the Penn State campus, whether its criminal or not is for the courts to decide.

IMO, the guy's a fucking pervert who whould be locked up for the rest of his life...period

...and Paterno never talked to him about any of these allegations, never discussed with him the complaints, never brought up any of the alleged sexual improprieties? are you kidding me?? so then, who's lying, Sandusky or Paterno???

I wouldn't bet on any court absolving him of criminal activity at this point. And I'm not part of the court. Nor is likely anyone else here. Hence the discussion. I'm not bound to the evidence rules. This guy is one sick human being.

Bob Costas was just on the Dan Patrick Show. He said the interview was suppposed to be with him and Sandusky's lawyer, Joe Amendola. However, ten minutes before they were supposed to tape, Amendola said, "What if I can get Jerry on the phone?" Bob said do it, and five minutes later he was on the phone. There were also no ground rules for Costas to abide by.

Crazy that Amendola suggested Sandusky do the interview. Wow.

I don't think Amendola is doing his client any favors, particularly with his own reported history.

It's not really that crazy for him to suggest it. He obviously thinks that this will somehow benefit Sandusky's case.

I disagree. There was nothing in that interview that benefited Sandusky. It was a terrible choice. Amendola could have spoke on behalf of Sandusky and came across much better.

How he felt putting Sandusky on the air at this time benefits his client is beyond me. I'd really like to hear his reasoning behind it because as far as I'm concerned, in the court of public opinion, he was tried, convicted, and executed.

Dan Patrick kept repeating, and I think he is correct, that Sandusky thinks he was justified in taking a little action from the boys because he thought he really was looking out for them and taking care of them. His attitude seems to be "so what if I fooled around a little, look at everything I did for them."

I mean this guy really is a sick fuck.

The man is innocent until proven guilty.

Although, I'm not sure how much the interview helped him, especially his answers to the questions "You must be the most unlucky man in history, why is that?" and "Are you sexually attracted to young boys?".

I literally laughed out loud at that question...I thought Costas rocked last night

This could be a big break for Sandusky, because if McQueary lied to the grand jury and changes his story now, he becomes a non-credible witness. I sure as hell hope they are not building this case just off of McQueary's statements and it comes out that it was all a lie about the rape. Maybe McQueary is a pedophile and he exaggerated the story to satisfy his own perverted sexual attraction to young boys.
