Penn State is in some real deep shit

[Andre]

They got off real easy, which, of course was to expected, given the hypocrisy that surrounds the notion that sports are somehow connected to personal character or dignity. That myth has been disproved so many times...If Penn State was to retain any shred of moral integrity, they should, on their own, have discontinued all sports for at least a decade. It is an institute of higher learning and not a sports franchise, at least in theory.
What strikes me as fucking pathetic are the losers like Franco Harris and matt Millen that defended Paterno all along. Those ding bats need to understand a few things...First, Paterno never cared about them as human beings, though, as a manipulative sociopath, he probably made it seem that way. He only cared about them, or any other individual on his teams, to the degree that they were of benefit to the program. It has been made abundantly clear that the program was his only concern. Second, great football players or not, had Sandusky bent Harris or Millen over and got up inside them, Paterno would have covered it up just like he did with all those other kids. For the program.
Right after they tore down the Paterno statue, and melted it down, they should have torn down and burned to ashes, the Paterno family home on campus. If any body is searching for an answer to what is wrong in the US, it is revealed in the Penn St debacle. You don't go to an institution of higher learning to better yourself, to be a wiser, more tolerant or compassionate, more thoughtful person. You go there to learn that all that matters is the "message", the profit margin, and the bottom line. The ends justify the means.

Who would have guessed that Liberty ,Truth, Justice etc was actually a front to an unstable foundation, all claimed in order to justify material or positional gains at others expense? It sure isnt the rock the statue stands on.

Penn State football should have gotten a TV ban but you just know the networks are salivating over the ratings they will get when they do show Penn State and where the statue used to be and rehash all that shit. This is why I think ESPN is too big and another company needs to rival them, they could harp on a situation like this where the accused party is actually innocent and really fuck up some lives, although the 24/7 media never fully admits their own wrong doings like for example when they said Jared Lee Loutner was "Probably a Tea Party Member", same with the kid in Colorado as well "There's a James Holmes registered as a Tea Party member" yeah, turns out that dude was 55 and had 0 to do with any shooting ever....I'm so disheartened by these things. I am happy when the media gets it right, but they have fucked up a lot, remember when they thought Richard Jewell set the bomb in Atlanta during the 1996 Olympics....they went after him like a pack of rabid dogs and wanted to ruin him.

If there's one thing i've learned about life, very little of what goes on socially and politically is as it seems. Except of course down under..

Which is understandable, Australia seems like a layed back place to live.

We've always got some bullshit going down here in the States, you're lucky to live where you do.

A ginger, is that like a fag?

[greynotsoold]

This whole situation wears me down, all these fucking moron talking heads "analyzing" the situation. It is very simple, Paterno, McCreary and every other punk-ass coward involved with the cover-up should be pistol whipped, robbed of all their possessions, be cast out and spat upon. Sandusky should be put in a place where some stand-up motherfucker can kill him. Some people say hate is wrong, but not always. This situation is exactly why hate was invented, and it should be allowed to burn, flare, and run it's course.
But we live in a "civilized" society...Remember the rapist priest that was killed in prison? His killer was called a racist and got more time for doing the right thing. Anybody that harmed these bastards would go to prison. And they will all go on to higher paying jobs at other institutions of higher learning, BECAUSE OF THE SKILL THEY SHOWED AT COVERUP. Because what counts is not doing the right thing, always, so that you maintain a good reputation, but hiding and lying about reality to protect a "rep" that doesn't exist.

No she has red hair I was being facetious as usual.
