This is a very sad situation.
I don't know how Paterno could compartmentalize like that. What's worse is that that creepy Sandusky had that foundation going on for years after he was caught. Who lets that happen?

4. No excuse for not acting, Shame |
|
I feel sorry for all the fine men that now have a giant stain on those white helmets. Sandusky should off himself. That's why they let him out on bail wasn't it? Bad for all College Football
Paterno won't last now, how could he? There are things in this world that are just Goddamn wrong.

6. This stain will pretty much negate his career accomplishments. |
|
Hard to believe he'd allow this to be swept under the rug.

7. I'd be surprised if he makes it another two days |
|
I'm an ESPN hound, and all day/morning they have been hammering this story, I doubt JoPA makes it to Friday.

10. The "babe in the woods" routine won't do it for Paterno on this issue. |
|
No way, nohow.
What a shame. Paterno had been touted for decades as a model of a winning, clean coach with a winning, clean program beyond reproach in every way.
Then again, I suppose, if you've been around for decades like he has, the success eventually gets to your head and you start thinking you're indispensable. Hang around too long, you risk embarrassment.
Nasty, sordid piece of business all around.
