Message: [QUOTE="NKR1978, post: 321718, member: 186"] Warning - this turned into far more of a rant than I expected, but this really is the only place I have to vent this since I don't know many people who are following this as closely as we are here. I don't know if my feelings are justified, but everything that Penn State and its fan community has done since last November has made me hate it. Beyond just a sports hatred (see Georgetown) which I never had with PSU. Seeing the what true scumbags Paterno and the rest of their leadership were in allowing Sandusky to run rampant for decades, coupled with their students' rioting in [I]support[/I] of that pathetic example of a human being, the idiots praying in front of his house...to now. My God, a trustee called the NCAA executive council "pansies." A ing trustee! And now aside from the video of the moron calling this his "9/11" they have people on their boards comparing this to the Nazis going after the Jews in the Holocaust (to be fair, he was shot down by actual PSU fans and not the fans of other teams trying to bring perspective to the cesspools that is their S, R and Blackshoediaries/SB Nation boards) and a lynching. Morons who want to say "goodbye" to a ing statue. Seriously. These completely clueless idiots feel like they were victimized because they didn't get to say goodbye to an inanimate object glorifying a man who enabled a pedophile to rape dozens of children for God knows how long, though I imagine it was certainly long before 1998. People proclaiming the greatness of Joe Paterno and ignoring common sense and using the most insane twisted logic to proclaim their deity innocent of everything. If there was a video of Joe repeatedly stabbing Sue with a butcher knife these fools would find a way to twist it and argue that Sue repeated ran into the knife. I hate Mike McQuearey for acting like a boy and running to his daddy and for not speaking up to anyone when he saw Sandusky hanging around the football facilities, going to games, volunteering at high schools. Seriously? I hope the image of that boy that he didn't save in any way being raped is burned into his every night before he goes to sleep and every morning when he wakes up. I hate the football players at PSU whining that they're being victimized. you. Seriously. The only victims are the kids Sandusky raped. I realize they're young, but they're old enough to have some perspective in life. And if the "Penn State Way" wasn't anything more than bullshit then these guys would have that perspective. The Paterno family adds to my disdain. My God - they somehow think that this is about them. Honestly, the idea of Sue Paterno weeping over the vacated wins kind of puts a smile on my face. And I hate that because I know that's a shitty feeling to have. Is that what I've become: happy that an old widow is feeling pain? But yes, reading their message boards and the tone deaf family press releases and the insane statements from their trustees to the press has caused me to find a measure of happiness in the misery of an old widow I have never met. I hate that almost as much as I've come to hate Penn State. I'm sure there are some good people associated with that cult, but I haven't seen any. Even a coworker/friend of mine who was reasonable up to monday has now started with the whole "THE NCAA IS EVIL!!! EMMERT IS AN IDIOT!!! WE HAVE TO FIGHT!!! bs that is coming from their internet community and brought on by their trustees. Not enough bad things could happen to that football program, because that is the only thing that embarrassment of a university (its fans, alumni, administration) cares about. [/QUOTE]
