FOOTBALL FOOTBALL FOOTBALL...h

The 2nd was just FOOTBALL FOOTBALL FOOTBALL...I started the day out nervous as all heck.. I am a huge Penn State fan.. We played the first game of the day against a great University of Houston team.  All my friends kept telling me and all the sports Guru's were picking Penn State. I have watched everyday and knew we were great against the rush but our pass defense was not that good.. Everyone said well you have the #5 pass defense in the country... Remember we play in the Big 10 who passes??? then our out of conference game was Bama.. They don't pass much either....Id seen this sit back and tackle prevent pass defense. I said we have a month to get ready.. We know they only pass and dont run....Bradley is a defense genius....The game started and we did the same only let them catch it 10 yards down the field and then tackle them....I knew we were in for a long day just after the first three plays....

It has been a strenuous 3 months for our boys.. they have been put into a position no Teenager should be....The had a huge sex scandal...they had their coach taken from them...their school board abandoned them...They lost their QB and their wildcat QB/WR.... Every Blog and sports board you looked at they are getting there butts ripped....what about the victims.. everyone says.. who cares about the team.. they should be disbanded.. they shouldn't even be able to play....they should change the name of the team...

It is a very sad and discussing thing that happened...but it happened to a retired Penn State employee.. one of the supposed instances happened on campus late at night in the gym showers....yes he had been a football coach at PSU 4 years earlier..in his retirement package he was given an office in the sports area..and yes he abused it....yes it happened 10 years ago and there has been victim to come forth to substantiate that what McQueerys several times changed story is accurate..but I agree even showering with the boy is wrong...

But here we are .. all condemning an 85 year old coach.. 75 17-21 year old kids...for what??  We all know there were allegations in 1998 they were turned over to the police and they found not enough to be charged a crime. Joe Paterno told his supervisors.. they met with McQuerry...That was the top 2 people in the administration. How do we know if Joe Paterno did not follow up and was told their was nothing to it? He didnt actually see anything happen.. actually his relationship with Sandusky had soured when he retired. They really didnt communicate.. they were not friends.. they did not hang out together....

The board had had all these same facts they had on the day they fired Joe Paterno for over 24 months before hand. So all because they become public now it was time for action....not even the right action....Heck at 52 I cant remember most days what I had for lunch yesterday how can an 85 year old man who we have all seen deteriorate remember what happened 10 years ago properly? 

Because he said I should of done more every says he had to know something...How many times in your life.. and it has happened to me....a friend kills himself.. or harms someone else and you say I should of done more in hindsight???   Could we of even if we wanted to??? would it of changed the outcome?? I had my brother in law kill himself and I reflect on that my whole life.. what could I of done if anything....what about the kids at that school who planned and murdered all those kids how many people say I should of known .. I should of done more.....do you know someone who died of drugs overdose.. killed themselve or someone else driving drunk.. killed or hurt their spouse???  Dont you say I wish I had done something maybe that wouldnt of happened??????

The Attorney General sat in on the meeting and pushed the board to fire Joe Paterno.. This is the same guy who started this investigation in 2006 and knew all the facts for 5 years and did nothing.. and Just 90 days earlier approved a 3 million dollar grant to Sandusky Foundation knowing he was raping children through this foundation... His answer was if we didnt then he would of known we were investigating him.... I have something to tell you...HE ALREADY KNEW!!!!!!!! The attorney General was smart.. he did the RIGHT THINg for him.. He deflected all the blame on the coach and these teenagers to save his own skin....what a masterful plan....

What about 2nd mile charity to they were told by the Penn State adminastration who supposedly did nothing in 2002!!! yes for 10 years the foundation knew but kept feeding Sandusky children to prey on.... Have you heard one word come out against them...oh and as soon as it went public they tried to dissolve the charity so no one could be sued...NOW tell me they had no knowledge.. If they didnt why try to close the charity and run and hide?????

Again I think what Sandusky did is HORRIFIC.....I think all the blame has been put on the unresponsible though.....

These players on the Penn State team did not do anything wrong.. with the facts that are in hand now Joe Paterno did what he was legally obligated to do....We dont know morally because no one has given us a chance to find out....

Well anyways I have vented now...lol

Other then seeing my team lose I had a great day.. I hung out with friends all day watching football..eating some delicious food.. played some poker was up till the end.

Monday was a great day!!!!!!
