I have essentially made these points more than once.

PSU will be fine. Some things you can't take away and Happy Valley and the White Outs are one of them.

again, completely wrong. #1 prospects in the COUNTRY at QB and TE still committed to PSU. keep hoping though.

What about your All Big 10 running back though?

That said, part of what a rational person would consider the "con" side of cheating is that you may harm other people. Most people may not think of that but the idea that if you commit robbery and go to jail your children will grow up fatherless should be a part of your choice to steal or not steal.
So you are saying people being punished undeservedly should be part of the deterrent for the actual wrong-doers?

not sure what your point is anyway. his argument is people are drawing conclusions and connecting dots to fit an agenda without the benefit of FACTS--and attacking a man who can no longer even defend himself. Can we all remember how when the story first broke, Paterno wanted to hold a press conference himself and answer any and all questions about the situation. The University shot him down and cancelled though... that's telling to me

Obviously hope Silas is staying. But if he or any other player chooses to go elsewhere I will support their decision 100%

Good thing they fired him a week later to free him from the censorship!

too many Sara Lampe's ITT. Listening to this bitch get owned over and over for 40 minutes is quite entertaining (peaks around 28 min)

I think this was posted a couple pages back, but Slaten's discussion w new BoT rep Anthony Lubrano is quite interesting as well.

Pretty good, never heard of either of them in the first clip but amazing how a little factual argument can get people tilted.

There isn't one single person being unfairly punished other than the current athletes who would've been much better off with a death penalty.

If you want to throw up in your mouth, go read some PSU forums for awhile. They are still filled with a holier than thou delusion. The same delusions that let JoePa run his kingdom and have children get raped. Children got raped because of JoePa! RAPED
Read it again PSU koolaid drinkers... the little kingdom you built was RAPING children.

Right now, there is a thread on the PSU board saying they have haterz due to firing JoePa mid-week in a classless way. Are you kidding me? It's the opposite. There was way too much class shown to a kiddie rapist protector.

PSU isn't special. They use all the tired cliches every school uses. Wait... they are special. They are special in that they sacrificed their off-the-field reason and morality the most of any NCAA program in its history. They are the worst, most embarrassing, what ever program in the history of sports.

Some places don't deserve the turn around or comeback story. This is one of those places.

Facts - JoePa knew he had a child predator on his hands and did nothing to stop him

The outside world is going to have to fight the cultists hard for a long time. They actually think they are the victims. Hats off again to Jeff MacGregor for his article today.

Quote:
Nearly every system of philosophy or religion has a mechanism for reconciliation. Atonement. Forgiveness. I keep waiting for any sign that anyone at Penn State understands this. If no one learns anything, it's as if all this misery has come and gone for nothing.

The sports press is complicit in this too, of course, all of us in the zombie media who keep using words like "incomprehensible" to describe what happened. To do so is to let ourselves off the hook. A big college football program covered up the serial rape of children in order to produce more big college football. There is a completely comprehensible truth here for anyone willing to look at it.

Beyond entertainment, the only real value in sports is in how they reveal essential human truths. In what we can learn about ourselves from all that metaphor and overblown poetry. Like so much of human art and science, sports are part of the search for decency.

If your local factory produced something that poisoned people and made them blind, you'd shut it down. We should hold our football factories to the same standard. All the arguments over Penn State and football and money are just that: arguments over money. The loss of Penn State football to the Pennsylvania economy has been detailed and inflated and retold again and again and again. Not yet answered is the one question worth asking:

What's the real price of a clear conscience?

I'm with skiier on this one. It just seems like you guys have done a lot of probing. It bothers me you might be on a witch hunt.

Might want to check your definition of "facts" because this statement is 100% wrong. This just shows you have zero knowledge of the most basic aspects of the situation. SEE--Sara Lampe. I suggest everyone disregard all of MT2R's posts ITT because he's clearly just trolling. I'd love to have a real discussion with someone here but as usual there hasn't been any. Instead I've just been called a cokehead by your buddy Riverman. Oh well, I'll try again tomorrow.

OMG, I never saw George Washington with my own eyes, but I believe he was the first president of the USA.
CONSPIRACY!

Get over the fact that JoePa was a pederast protector and move on.
