Joe Paterno Has Officially Passed Away(merged thread)

[geebert74]

RIP Joe... We all know you were a great man!

[MatI]

What I don't understand, and where I think Paterno needs to show responsibility for his actions is how he handled Sandusky. Paterno was a powerful man on campus, he could have made life miserable for Sandusky. He could have had his ass launched from that football facility and no one would have questioned Joe. But Paterno didn't do that, he allowed the monster to parade kid after kid into the locker rooms, the showers, the press box, the practice facility----that is where Paterno failed.

Sandusky must have been a good assistant coach. That was all that mattered in JoePa's eyes.

My issue with Paterno has nothing to with how he reported the incident.

YAP

and for all the people that make excuses for him I still need to hear them answer what they think he'd had done to Sandusky if he found out Sandusky was giving booze and drugs to current players....or if he found out Sandusky molested lil Scott or Jay Paterno.


he would have done "more" just like he said he wished he had

RIP Joe

Joe Paterno, 85, was diagnosed with lung cancer the week after he was fired. He died from lung cancer. Enough of the "media killed him" that is a prevalent sentiment.

[Jerm3462]

why are there 6 threads saying Joe Paterno died?

In case with miss the 1st five?

[Chi_archie]

Mods will eventually combine them

[Iced]

Obvious solution is to make a seventh thread asking for the reasons for the prior six threads.

Anyone Know If Joe Paterno Is Dead?

That was a ploy to keep the media off he azz. Cancer just doesn't pop up to a 85 year old man after a scandal.

Turn on the TV and you'll get your answer

[paco]

Anyone have him on the death pool?

I don't feel bad. Anyone that has kids wouldn't feel bad, he let a monster continue to rape little boys for over a decade.

Legend

Would u call him a legend if Jeffrey was one of the little boys Sandusky was nailing while paterno was watching?

While Paterno was watching? Cmon paco, you're better than that. He didn't know what was going on. The failure was with the head of police not doing his job and McQueary refusing to help the investigation, not with Paterno.

He knew and could've done more. He would've done more if it was his grand kids. Paterno could've had Sanduskys ass gone if he wanted and no one would've questioned joe pa. He was the most loved person in that whole entire area. How could he look Into the eyes of Sandusy for over 10 years knowing what he knew? I just don't get it and I hope he burns in hell right along the rest of them.*

[ByeShea]

RIP, Joe Pa.

I'm sorry if this sounds callous, but I don't have it in me to feel all that sympathetic to a guy who enabled a pedophile.

And he did it for more than a decade.

STFU

As$holes like you already had too much say in the matter.

[Brett]

Ding dong the wicked bitch is dead

His death is proof that prayer does work

I don't get why you think he knew? McQueary never saw rape, he saw them in a shower, which is what he told Joe, who told the head of police. McQueary never filed a police report, so why would Joe assume Sandusky was really raping kids?

I'm sorry, but too much adds up to Joe not realizing what was going on. Its amazing to me how quickly he became the bad guy here

[Brett]

Lol at you clowns thinking joe pa did not know what was goging on

Hell there is enough evidence to show he probably raped kids too

Yeah, they were probably just cleaning the showers!!

[rsnnh12]

I posted facts. The only witness didn't see any molestation. He didn't file a police report. Yes, blame Joe for this

I'm done arguing this. Maybe he knew, maybe he didn't, but all the facts that are out now back that he didn't know.

[lemart5]

That damn Joe Pa had his co ck and balls out raping kids,

You obviously don't know shit.

Read the grand jury report, read Paterno's comments. He passed the buck because he only gave a shit about W's.

Shame he died, seems there are quite a few SBR members who would have been queuing to suck his c*ck.

[tony_come]

He spent 60+ years of his life coaching/football

most ppl cant even stay at a job more than 1-2 years.

I need to find a job that I love

Might want to read more recent news than the grand jury report a lot has come out since then, including McQueary lying about what he saw. There's a reason why Sanduskys lawyers are taking it to a jury, and it's not because the guy is innocent. Its because they have enough to cast a doubt to his guilt.

Well done with the dick sucking comment, its clear that you're a really mature, intelligent person

ahhh, you will find that it is Sandusky's lawyers claiming McQueary is lying. You think that is credible?

Lawyers take cases like this to a jury because it's much easier to find sympathy for high profile cases. See OJ case as an example. Do you have any idea how juries are selected? I can see the jury panel now, 12 males, all fairly young, all football fans.

Get a fuking clue.

The OJ case played into racial issues of the time... who is going to sympathize with a child molestor??

I'm done with this, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

Good luck with your bets today

Don't bother...Insecure people feel like they have to over exaggerate what they would have done or else they somehow condone child molesters."As soon as I found out I would have tracked Sandusky down to the edges of the earth and squooshed his head in a vice then found the rest of his family and murdered them in case he passed the genes".

Joe Pa did more preparing the athletes he coached for the future beyond football than any other coach ever.RIP

[King Mayan]

I hope he can coach the Hell SatanHawks

They have a big game against the Heaven JesusBoys coming up....... They'll need his help....

[MexicanStallion]

RIP Joe Pa

[pronk]

Not only Sandusky is a pedo-f\*g but now he's a murderer. That sick bastard killed Joe

R.I.P. Joe
