Penn State scandal (merged)

OMG, so he was fired for telling the Grand Jury what he told the AD in 2002. Yeah, that makes a lot sense.

And you're taking some liberties with the use of the term "friend" arent you? I'm not doubting the two were friends right up to 98-99, but since they've never been seen in public together since then thats quite a stretch to imply they have maintained any kind of friendship.

Sandusky continued to use the PSU facilities after 2002. He was in the weight room as recently as last week. You're pretty much incorrect unless you are also claiming Paterno never entered the football facilities

Funny, just a guess but I'd say what Harris has to say on the issue carries more weight than the BOMB Barry Switzer dropped in the press yesterday, which was nothing but long distance speculation.

why would it? Switzer was talking about a coach's responsibility while Franco was just taking up for his ex-coach

Why would it be of any importance for it be documented if friends of 30 years were seen in public together after 98/99?

If you argue that it would have been important enough to document, that would have to indicate that Paterno knew of the allegations at that point.
 
Come on Law, Darwinism has been to state college. He is the authority in all things related to penn state.

Yeah I have, you guys act like its New York city and its not. I know this is difficult for a bunch that have probably never lived anywhere but Tennessee, but State College is a very small compact sleepy little town, and the the university is not separate from the town. No, but you clowns think its like the Wild Wild West up there where everybody over the age of 80 is intimately familiar with the subject of pedophilia. Its not that way, and the university is the town.

I've never been to Mars so I wont presume to know much about it, maybe if you guys declared exactly what planet you're from I'd have a better understanding of your position. :lolabove:
 
Sweet. Back to Paterno isn't familiar with pedophilia.

:eek:lol:

Is he really starting that bull**** again? If the defense for Paterno has devolved to saying he didn't realize ass raping little boys was bad, then I think he's going to be in some serious, serious trouble.
 
Back on track, Darwinism are you going to tell us what was so brilliant about the Harris article?

Oh man, I shouldnt be surprised at this.... I never said there was anything revelatory in that article, I said it "makes sense" and it does. Its just the man's perspective, there's nothing new or anything we dont already know (which isnt much) but I thought he broke it down pretty well. Especially this part.

"When I heard that, it blew my mind," Harris said. "Why would they bring the moral into the legal? Now, everyone gets to interpret in their own way. That's what really bothers me: Joe did what was right for him to do. He forwarded the information to his superiors. That's the legal procedure at Penn State. If I had to choose today between the moral integrity and character of Joe Paterno and the politicians and commentators criticizing him, I would pick Joe Paterno, hands-down, no contest every time."

Basically, he strongly suggests that the people in charge didnt do their jobs! Now back to my diatribe from yesterday about hypocrisy.....
 
LOL Keep dreaming, it wasnt Paterno, unless you think Paterno was at the center of the cover up and the deal with the DA and cops which is pretty hilarious. There's never been even so much as a report that Paterno has been seen in public with Sandusky since the 98/99 incident. You folks have quite the imagination. Hey wait, I bet Paterno murdered that DA too! lmao

Sorry but that is completely false, they've been in public together plenty of times since the 98 incident.

Here is a photo of them in 99--doesn't look like Joe Pa is too repulsed to me.

Funny you mentioned that, my grandaddy (and his 6th grade education) bout killed a man over a similar situation involving one of my aunts. He seemed to understand it pretty well.

He'd be 88 if he was alive today.

:eek:lol:

Grand Jury: It has come to my attention that your friend and a 10yo boy have engaged in sexual intercourse in the locker room showers. Is that correct?

Paterno: Who said that?

GJ: McQueary did.

Paterno: Was that wrong? Should he not have done that? I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to plead ignorance on this thing, because if I had known that sort of thing was frowned upon...

Cue Darwindumbass: "he only was told he was fondled; therefore, no action should have been taken. If he'd known there was ass raping going again though, that's a totally different story...."

No, because its pretty damned obvious Paterno disassociated himself from Sandusky when the 98 affair was closed. If thats not the case then please feel free to find me something that indicates he maintained a friendship with the guy.

And of course Paterno knew about the allegations in 98/99, nobody has ever suggested otherwise.

BTW, if you think in the midst of all this outrage that somebody, anybody wouldnt have come to the press with "I used to see Paterno having coffee with Sandusky every Sunday morning" then you are delusional. Unless of course all those that are voicing their outrage are in on the coverup too.

Wow. You keep going on and on about "all of us" and our speculations about JoPa and yet your post is chock full of speculation.

Just wondering, who should we thank for pulling your head out of your ass long enough for you even know for sure you were in State College!

I've seen that pic, I guess I missed the caption. Got a link to that? BTW, take note I said "after" the 98/99 affair was closed.

What speculation doofus, that the octogenarians of State College dont study pedophilia for a hobby? Get real.
