Tim donahy should have been the equivalent of the black sox scandal but David stern did a great pr job saying it was an isolated incident even though the Feds were involved.

#50His actions after their inaction show where his focus was. He worried about his job, image, and the health of the Penn State football program more than the welfare of that boy, and any who were taken advantage of after that. He ended up losing all of the aforementioned ANYWAY.Originally posted by NinersnutPeople are ridiculous about this. He went to the AD about it. What's he supposed to do after that? Arrest the guy? When you see someone blow a stop sign do you follow them and make a citizen's arrest? Should he have done more, yeah, but its not like 60 y/o Joe was in the shower fukking boys.
I separate what he did from his start to about 2000 or so from his "coaching" by proxy over the last decade or so.Comment -

#51here are some people not even know about or even remember
The 2000 Spanish Paralympic Basketball Team
The Spanish basketball team won gold in the intellectual disability tournament at the 2000 Paralympic Games. There was one problem: 10 of the team’s 12 players had no disability. “We were encouraged to pretend to be stupid,” said player Carlos Ribagorda. Their scam was discovered soon after the Games and they were forced to return their medals.
Danny Almonte was the star of the 2001 Little League World Series, pitching a perfect game, no-hitter and one-hit shutout in three starts for his Bronx, N.Y., team. He became a national celebrity and received a key to the city from New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani. However, there were questions surrounding his age, and on Aug. 30, a week after he pitched his final game, Sports Illustrated revealed that he was two years older than he claimed to be.
Rosie Ruiz
In 1980, unheralded runner Rosie Ruiz crossed the finish line of the Boston Marathon before any other woman, winning with a women’s record time of two hours, 31 minutes. Ruiz did not appear sweaty or fatigued, and nobody had seen her running early in the race.
According to varying witness accounts, Ruiz had taken the subway toward the finish line and entered the race with a half-mile left. Though she steadfastly denied cheating, she was disqualified and the victory was awarded to second-place finisher Jacqueline Gareau.
