One of the posters asked why punish the players for the actions of the few. I was just pointing out that punishing teams for the actions of the few happens all the time in NCAA sports programs -- for far less serious matters. I can't think of anything that would top this.

Thanks for the links , they were interesting.
Still in disbelief about this whole tragic scandal.

How in this world can a man of Joe's status do this kind of thing is beyond reasoning.

Nothing.

But they will continue to regurgitate their programming without giving a second thought to its foolishness and as though their audience is made up of 2 year olds who could not possibly know any better.

It really is hard to believe, yet there is too much evidence to dismiss .... too many witnesses .. to many victims ... and too many mysterious deaths of those investigating these outrageous crimes against children.

It is a truth so vile, and so outrageous that most people simply cannot believe it exists.

Here is a documentary covering the above that was scheduled to air on the Discovery Channel years ago, but the plug was pulled. This is volatile stuff, and it's really hard for the average person to wrap their heads around. But everyone needs to watch this:

Penn Sate Football is just a drop in the bucket, and you can bet the truth goes much deeper than what is being broadcast in the media.

The GJ report isn't an investigation of Paterno, so I don't expect it to contain details about what he knew and when he knew it for all of Sandusky's molesting career.

At the very least, he was told in 2002 that Sandusky fondled and did something of a sexual nature to a young child.

It's kind of you to Paterno to reject the common sense conclusion that he was aware of prior incidents. That there wasn't a connection between the 1998 investigation and Sandusky's 'retirement' in 1999. If Paterno didn't absolutely 100% Know he was protecting a pedophile, he sure as heck knew he might be protecting one.

Listen to the DA's words carefully, she indicated " at this time Paterno is not being investigated".
