They didn't fire McQuery, I think he is more to blame than Paterno, but he didn't get fired. WTF?

Man, the stuff I'm hearing regarding Ped State... Oops I mean Penn State indicate that this thing is just getting started.

Lets see... By the way, a friend of mine has a friend that is a sports journalist for CNN. That is where this info comes from. Some of it is public, some of it isn't.

1) The entire charity was a front for sexual predators and that many PSU boosters had their own "pay to play" thing going on. The current number of victims is over 80 and growing quickly. There are other faculty members and other people in the athletic department that are considered likely complicit if not participants.
2) The current expected damage from law-suits will completely bankrupt PSU. We are talking Billions of dollars because the severity of what took place and the coverups.
3) There is a chance that the missing/legally dead DA is related to this.
4) The Big 10 is already taking steps for the removal of PSU from their ranks. Led by Indiana and Iowa.
5) Joe Pa still doesn't get it. Sure he did the minimum that he needed to do, however he doesn't fully understand that this wasn't just horsing around, this is rape. My thoughts are that he is so old (same generation as my grandmother) and he was so close to Sandusky that he is having a hard time comprehending the severity of the crime.
6) PSU student riots are proof that they are idiots in this too. Him getting shit canned was the ONLY responsible thing that could happen.
7) They found that Sandusky had a video camera in his basement and investigators are going through the tapes now to identify more victims (that is how they found the last 20+ victims and as of last night still had hundreds of tapes to go through).

This is really bad. I wouldn't be shocked at all if in 5 years PSU is bankrupt, has zero sports programs and is basically a void in the history of college athletics.

If the Big 10 kicks out Penn State, there is a decent chance that they hustle up and try to pull Mizzou before they start playing in the SEC next year or Pitt so they can maintain Pennsylvania footprint. They are both good geographic fits. Pitt would still be on the hook for $25 million to the ACC, but the Big 10 could pay that if this steaming pile forces that move.

It's just awful that they would cover this shit up. His book title must've been him gloating that he was getting away with it all. It's sick.

This sucks.
White guy problems are hard.

I'm thinking of caving and grabbing a bottle of Pepsi. I need the caffeine boost stat. I'm trying to hold off and fight it, but I'm out of hot cocoa.

I stopped drinking sodas and tea, I only drink water and occasionally milk. It took awhile, but I also lost prolly 5-10 pounds cause of it, along with eating healthier.
