    The crap that is happening at Penn State has me so sick to my stomach that I just cringe when I hear the the words, Joe Paterno, Penn State and of course college football.

    I hope that the guy that ass raped those boys goes to prison and gets ass raped himself. I am so disgusted and he has it coming.. No such thing as forgiveness with this one!!!!:rant::rant:

    I can't blame JoePA for the whole thing
    it's not like he was in the shower helping
    or taking turns.

    IN fact it hasn't been reported that he
    ever witnessed the act, and that it was told
    to him by another coach.

    JoePA reported it to the school's administration
    as they are his employer, remember he is an employee
    of the University, not the employer, even though he is head
    coach, there are still Employee Rules, Regulations and requirements
    to follow. My guess is the administration and board
    of regents told him to sit tight and they had the guy resign.

    Nothing in the media, no bad press on Penn State.

    Remember JoePA DID REPORT IT!

    He cannot back up the act to the police
    as he was not a material witness to the crime.

    It would be like someone telling you they
    saw Jimmy Jack stealing a bike, but you never
    saw it, then do you report that crime, when you
    never saw it happen.

    Not saying this isn't bad, but they are
    laying the blame on a guy that followed
    what the University outlined for HR.

    The guy that saw it should be
    arrested and charged for not reporting
    it to the authorities, including the campus
    police.

    Could JoePA have called the cops
    sure, but then it would have required the
    'witness' to come forth, and the kid to
    testify.

    What they should have done
    was take the guy out in the field and
    let the team beat the living sh(t out of
    him.....

    Some good points HRK BUT, after a period of time and nothing came of his report. The sick person is still working and coaching and being around children I would expect Paterno to followup! Those "alleged" crimes are disgusting and one cannot turn the other cheek. Teachers here are also instructed to report to the administration any "alleged" or suspicions about child abuse. Teachers I know would followup with the administration to see what is determined. Then they would or would not take it from there on their own if they see no change or the answers weren't there. Of course, a response in writing would be asked for. So far, we do not have all the facts on Joe Paterno. Will we ever? who knows. Innocent until proven guilty!

    Hard thing to hear, but any way you turn it, the guy who saw it, has to try to stop it, not wait a day and report it. Also, no matter how much Joe is respected, (I am a huge college fan), you can not accept action not being taken. If it were your child, you would not accept this crap, you would likely want to hurt someone. I hate it probably kills a lifetime of good action by Joe P, but he gave in as did the administration, to not wanting to hurt the college. When our kids are at stake, that is just not acceptable.

    That's the rub, JoePA did take action
    contacted the administration, remember
    he was not party to viewing the event
    but was second hand informant of the event.

    JB's comment is of the type
    that has been generated with the typical
    media hype about the event which has
    focused more on Penn State and JoePA
    than the guy that did the acts.

    I agree that he could have done more
    however you still have to consider
    he is acting on a grad student story
    that this guy saw the coach committing the act.

    Without cooperation from the kid
    who would be the one to file the assault
    charge they can't even file a case, investigate
    you bet, but then they have to get
    a kid and family to agree to publicize the
    event and their 10 year old on the front
    page of the paper being sodomized
    by the coach and the court of public opinion.

    The fault lies with the Administration of Penn State
    as primary for not sending this further into investigation.

    However JoePA will never live it down

    In my opinion JoePa basically ass raped those kids just like the other guy. Was he alone? Absolutely not, but considering Joe's stature at this University, he did just enough to keep himself out of legal trouble. (Maybe) He didn't care about those kids, if he did, this woulc have been dealt with long ago. HRK, JoePa has passed himself for many years as a man with the highest morals, where were those morals when it came to protecting those kids??? He is responsible for that just like you and I are. Do you honestly think that JoePa had no idea of what was going on even after that idiot went home to call his daddy and then JoePa?? Come on man, he knew what was happening and to say otherwise is just ignorant! Sandusky did the act, but Paterno and the University are complicit in the rape of who knows how many kids. People have said many times that JoePa was the University, well, he will have his day in court.......

    Your right and probably gonna be a big lawsuit coming against the university and rightly so. Just hope the kid or kids don't get drug through the mud.

    They will go through the ringer, but justice will prevail, there is just too much evidence. Not sure with JoePa, he is going to be lighter in the pocket..

    Don't know JB, and I wouldn't label him as an "ass raper"
    while I don't like what happened, I am more interested in
    the guy doing the act go to jail, for a long time because he
    was the one hurting the kids and it was his actions, his abuse
    of the facilities and his alone to bear the consequences.

    The University will bear fiscal burden, and embarrassment
    over trying to hide this as they should, JoePA deserves ire
    for not pushing it farther, again, you were not there
    you don't know what was said or presented and you don't
    know if JoePA was told to be quiet by the bosses.

    None of us know anything more than kids got hurt
    by a sick man, and that sick sob needs to be the one
    that is the focus of the moment, joepa and penn state
    that's for civil court and later...

    I'm more amazed at the effort put out by people to attack
    the coach than the perp.

    Really not one negative thing said about the guy that really
    did it in this thread.....

    That's the sad part, outside of the original act...

    Good point HRK, not much said about the sick jerk who hurt the kids, but I don't think that is because he does not sicken us or because we don't find him the main problem. I think it is because he needs to go away and pay and that is a given in everyone's mind. But the guy who saw it and did not stop it, is unbelievable and the University's lack of action and the coach's just amazes. So it gets a lot of talk. You are correct, we don't know what all went on or was said, but it sure looks like cover up. Makes me wonder if one more kid after that act was hurt. If so, anyone who had the chance to stop him and did not shares blame if it went on. Just the way I feel, don't think I am jumping on a bandwagon, just have to have people who will stand up for what is right, even when it is not very pleasant.

    I heard on the news tonight that he admitted to showering with boys. Well when they get done with him he will be showering with some big boys who will be looking at him. Hope he likes where he is going. Personally he should be given a bullet.

    I agree just let the legal system
    take care of him and put him away
    if it's proven he did this stuff.

    The innocent until proven guilty
    rules still apply. Media trials are
    bad enough.

    Let JoePA go off to the sunset
    his name is now tarnished for
    not doing what we all know should
    have been done at that time
    to protect the kids, and the University
    will end up writing a lot of big checks.

    Penn State, well I don't want to tarnish
    the school per se, it's the people that did
    this and the kids that play there and had
    nothing to do with it shouldn't be included
    into this.

    It's a shame no matter what.
