This always struck me as the height of stupidity, which for the NCAA is quite a feat.

How do you 'erase' victories which have already occurred?

Yes, because sports are so much more important than a little pedophilia.

You keep claiming that Bush stole Florida....do it enough and the usual 40% of the population swallow it.

Same way you say obvious Islamic terrorism "has nothing to do with Islam."

Same way you say global warming is the result of man-made CO2 emissions when there hasn't been any global warming in almost twenty years.

Ok give back Penn St their wins back, BUT keep the coach where he is, dead and buried.

He knew what was going on and didn’t have the balls to say anything worthwhile and let it go on, in my eyes he was just as guilty as Sandusky....

so was the it legal or not???

I understand everyone dislikes the actions of the NCAA, and we all hate to see the players punished along with the school, but who else is there to hold the feet of a misbehaving university to the fire?? With all of Penn State’s clout and money, the NCAA held tuff. That is, until now.

To an apparently growing segment of people, sports is more important than anything else.

Proposition this-and-that passed by voters later overturned by judges.

If aaron hernandez is convicted of Murder, do all the Patriots and Florida Gators wins get erased? This entire episode was a farce. They didn’t want to deal with the school security so they punished the football team and its history.

PSU has $60 million less now.

Good.

Pulling wins should only be used in cases of cheating or other game misconduct.

Paterno and his actions tarnished PSU history ...

Only the beginning of what is to come. The ncaa and b.o.t. skated away today by writing a check. Their day of reckoning is still coming though.
