Paterno should be stripped of all victories since 1998, when allegedly he first knew about Sandusky.

If Emmert for a ahead with this, Penn State will get an injunction and sue the NCAA, and win.

Hmmm. I thought he was saying "Use this finger to dial 911 if you suspect child sexual abuse."

If Penn State did as you described, the public would rightfully view them as defending a pedophile victims recruiting program. Even bigger PR disaster than now.

How would he know?

There is no “Penn State.” For the next few decades, its informal name will remain “Pedo State” amongst college football fans. That’s a pretty severe punishment in its own right.

The stadium will be razed and the ground salted?

Why do they stop at Penn State. Lets disband the NCAA and end all college sports. Better yet, lets confiscate all the betting money and put it into ACORN...

Can you imagine what information Penn State would rightfully demand concerning improper sexual allegations at all member schools? There is a lot of it going on; especially lesbian sexual coercion by coaches on female athletes.

Joe and Sandusky will become icons of the gay community. Let them march in their disgusting parades and all normal people will eventually realize same-sex rape of young boys is what yet remains in their closet. Keep outing gays on this issue and eventually they can be forced to shut their coprophilic mouths.

The failures at PSU, including those of Paterno are egregious, and sanctions are in order. But what really pi$$es me off with all the holier-than-thou frauds calling for the virtual nuking of Happy Valley from Potters Mills to Bellefonte is their SELECTIVE outrage.

In the length of time that 10+ young boys were being molested by Sandusky, MULTIPLE MILLIONS of helpless, innocent unborn infants were SLAUGHTERED wholesale, with not so much as a peep of protest by the new athletics clergy. A corrolary to that is the SCREAMING OUTRAGE by some against the cruelty to DOGS; but at the same time, only the sound of crickets in response to the SLAUGHTER of helpless human babies!

Sandusky’s activities were atrocious, and should be and are being punished severely. But those abused boys had YEARS of opportunities in which to report what was going on. They had legs to run on and air in their lungs with which to scream bloody murder....but they didn’t. The MILLIONS of butchered babies could not speak out or run away. But who gives a crap about THEM?

Therefore, I’ll consider most of it a phoney crock until I see some sense of PROPORTION from the new, self-appointed Athletic Clergy.
