Holy crap at the last question. "What do you say about the board gunning for Paterno since 2004 and you're using this as an excuse to finally finish that?"

[WillieWatanabe]

Yeah, but it's true, some have.  For sure.

What a bizarre situation.  The board made the right decision...really the ONLY decision they could've made...and they proceed to get raked over the coals by the local "media."

It's an entire community of tucks...with the students leading the charge...and the only reasonable ones are the people at the top.

You know what? Paterno was a great coach. I'm sure there have been many MANY great coaches/players that are also crap human beings. Paterno got caught being a crap human being. Sucks for him.

People that say, "well they did what they had to do, passed it on to their supervisor" How the eff do you go to bed at night or see this Sandusky fellow and live with yourself day to day? Rape victims have the courage to deal with what happened to them, but a witness, or someone with knowledge lacks the integrity to make sure it does not happen again?

It's a tricky game you play when you cover stuff up, I do enjoy watching people get caught and tarnished for it though.

Paterno will die within a year or two I'm guessing, how dialed back will the "mourning" be on national tv now?


(kinda wish I had known this was going to be my 1/2k post before I made...)

Peter King bitching about firing him over the phone and not in person.

Fair point. Phone firings are never good. Kinda small in the scope of things though.

If you (as a board) have decided to fire Joe Paterno, you have to verbally make him aware of that as soon as possible.  That decision won't be under wraps until tomorrow morning.  He has to be the first to know, and the only way you can get that message to him is via phone.  What were the supposed to do, call him at 8:00 PM and say "Uh, Joe, can you come back into the office right now?" to tell him.  He would know when asked to come in.  Having someone with a background with him call him and tell him as soon as possible is the best thing they could have done for Joe.  I guess someone could have drove over to his house to tell him, but even with that I'm sure that the info would leak during the 15 minute drive over and some assistant to one of the board members would have told someone, and it would have gotten back to him before someone arrived at his house.

TV only I think.  I just checked their website to see if they left their live camera feeds up like Fox news does and didn't find one.  Maybe Fox will have one?

PSU Scout board is unbelievable. I mean, I just can't believe how they are reacting. Something is wrong with them.

I am no longer an alum of Penn State University
When the BoT makes decisions without all the facts (and says so) and goes against everything my professors taught while I was there, then I resign from being an alum.

I thought I was embarrassed by the Sandusky allegations, but this just makes PSU a laughing stock.  An educational institution caved from the pressure of a sports network.

Good luck to all of you.

poor Joe

My parents attended Penn State, I attended Penn State. I love the institution, but not after this.

I am done.

I feel for the kids on the football team, what a circus. This is a tragedy of the first degree.

I am done. No season tickets renewals, no giving, no support. I'll use my degree for professional reasons but I disassociate myself from the university.

[kstater]

Police missing out on a great revenue opportunity.  A single cop could be handing out jaywalking tickets nonstop.  No wonder tha state is poor.  No forsight.

[Rams]

At some point later in life they're all going to look back on what they said and did and just   .  There's just no way you can logically stand behind Paterno based on the facts that are out there right now.

[WillieWatanabe]

guy rapes kids = ehh, no big deal.

fire Joe Pa = Death to America!!!
