Given what has taken place this week, it seem to be icing on the cake for Penn to lose.

“and accepting the abuse that came with it.”

That really says it all, doesn’t it...

“It’s the right thing,” he said. “It’s not about Joe. It’s about the kids.”

He’s right, of course. Someone should tell the interim Penn State President, who might have at least mentioned the victims and their families in his self-serving announcement on ESPN.

But make no doubt - in the eyes of everyone from Paterno and his staff on up, it is only about one thing: MONEY.

Paterno was the $1.2M per year CEO of Penn State Football Inc, a $91M enterprise. As always - “follow the money”.

Rank School Total Revenue Conference
1st Texas $120,288,370 Big 12
2nd Ohio State $117,953,712 Big Ten
3rd Florida $106,030,895 Southeastern Conference
4th Michigan $99,027,105 Big Ten
5th Wisconsin $93,452,334 Big Ten
6th Penn State $91,570,233 Big Ten

College sports is a cult!

That tax-payers subsidize this billion dollar brain washing is a travesty.

College athletics are farm teams for professional sports and should stand alone - not be associated with academic study.

Time for a change.

It seems like all the energy and attention the nation has for its countless thousands of sexually abused children is being poured into this one case.

It’s becoming pathetic.

Our local news here in Pittsburgh is reporting that a collection was taken up at the game for a child abuse prevention charity.

107,900 people attended this game. The charity collected $22,000. Says alot to me.

Screw these “fans”. These people are so stupid they’d follow their dumbass football coach right to Hell.

The plan now is to sweep all other investigations away. Who can be depended on to actually look into what was really going on? The University? No. The state of Pennsylvania? No. The Feds? They love homos. No. I fear it will be “Let’s all just move along.”

On 680 AM "news" in Toronto, Canada they are leaving out the name Jerry Sandusky. The radio news is only reporting the name Joe Paterno. On AM 770 WABC in NYC they are reporting almost the same thing. The local radio "news" wants people to conclude it was Joe Paterno who committed the pedophile crimes. The homosexual lobby is insisting the name Jerry Sandusky be omitted and not be associated with pedophiles.

Once the investigation/s are complete, we shall see charges of aiding and abetting handed down. With the fanfair and publicity the man has been in, he surely had many people around him that was aware of his actions, thus making them too accessory to fact. I've been in State Law Enforcement for 20+ years and I've seen many so-called celebrities come under investigations for the very same crimes , the penalties he/they will face in prison will be unimaginable to those whom have never seen the inside of prison walls, what the prisoners in there will do to him/them for these offenses is going to be more horrendous than what the courts will do, unless they stay in protective custody their entire time of incarceration and then they still are not safe. I know first hand, for I've had to investigate crimes in protective custody areas in prison of the same accord. I have seen and been around some of the most infamous limelight offenders society could imagine and in the end, the all got what was due to them. With the anger brewing in those whom were assaulted by this man and his accomplices, I would not want to be in their shoes nor would I want to be around them. Can you imagine the hate and anger going on with those whom were offended and the family and friends of those offended. My last word on these people (The offenders of the horrible crimes) are "marked men" once they are sentenced (and they will be) their so-called lives are finished as they ever knew them. They will learn about Living Hell on Earth.
