Larry Kart Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 According to this review, Joe Posnanski's new Joe Paterno biography reveals, among other anomalies, that Paterno and Jerry Sandusky despised each other for many years! http://www.kansascity.com/2012/08/19/3769516/posnanskis-paterno-complicates.html Quote
Blue Train Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Posnanski was/is a "Saint" Paterno shill. Try checking Penn St's record before (hell, just check from 1993.) and shortly after the real reason Penn St. became a powerhouse and was known as Linebacker U "retired." after the 1999 Alama Bowl game....the same Bowl game if I am not mistaken that the pedophile raped one of his victims. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Paterno Oh yeah, the guy who originally matriculated to that sub par University that is Brown to be a lawyer didn't even know what sodomy meant amongst other things. Posnanski has been a complete embarrassment with regards to the "Saint" since the whole thing first became public. Edited August 21, 2012 by Blue Train Quote

Mike Schwartz Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 Spanier lawyer rips Freeh report. He's got quite a way to go to find someone with a brain to believe what they're shoveling. http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/8292444/ex-penn-state-nittany-lions-president-graham-spanier-lawyer-blasts-freeh-report Quote
Larry Kart Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 I hold no brief (or briefs, for that matter) for Sandusky or Paterno, but while it's certainly possible that the Freeh Report was conducted in a rock-solid manner, it should be remembered that Freeh himself had a fairly ghastly record as FBI Director and also was quite ethically challenged in his behavior there: http://www.salon.com/2002/06/04/freeh/ http://bobgeiger.blogspot.com/2005/10/louis-freeh-new-gop-smear-artist.html Quote

Blue Train Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) I think everyone was expecting a white wash, or something that passed the buck as much as possible. Instead it was something that could end up costing Penn St. $500 - $700 million or more. It's already cost $72+ million between the fine and cost of the investigation and 12-years worth of games. If Freeh screwed up the investigation....he definitely didn't help Penn St. in doing so. He ended up with a lot more information than the NCAA (which doesn't have subpoena powers) would have ever come across. Freeh also shared all that information with prosecutors.....which is really what the Paternos, Spanier and the rest are worried about....since the prosecutors and the victims attorneys might have never found about things if they didn't know what they were looking for.

alocispepraluger102 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Posted August 27, 2012 The Altoona Mirror reports the Neil Diamond song "Sweet Caroline" will no longer be played at Penn State football games. School officials are concerned about the lyrics, specifically "touching me, touching you." Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 The Centre Daily Times reports the Penn State Board of Trustees has authorized $60 million to be paid in settlements to victims of convicted child sex abuser Jerry Sandusky. Meanwhile, legal costs for Penn State over the Sandusky scandal have reached $46.8 million. Quote
