I take this thing quite seriously, as there was a high profile case of two NHL hockey players who were molested as kids by their hockey coach. If it was my kid / brother / friend that was the victim, I would have killed the sick fuck who did it.
Maybe JoePa should have done more. Maybe he knew being such a close friend of the perv, he wanted to distance himself from it, because he didn't want his friendship to influence the investigation. There have been plenty of people who knew the perv, and none seemed to have any idea that he was as fucked as he is. JoePa, IMO, didn't try and sweep this under the rug. He told the people above him, and let them handle it. Maybe it was the easy way out. And maybe he should have done more. But there are few coaches out there, in the history of sports, who have done more positive things for young athletes, than JoePa has. And while this incident, if proven true, shouldn't be swept under the rug, JoePa's legacy should not be tarnished by what might have been one little error in judgement.
The other thing I'd like to add is, can we not wait until the sick fuck has his day in court? By no means am I defending him, or attacking his accusers, and maybe I've watched too many Law & Order episodes, but I can't help if some of the "victims" that have come out recently, are looking to win the nigger lottery. With such a high profile case, with an institution as large, and wealthy as Penn State, I can't help but think there could be a person or two who is lying about what happened to him, in order to get a piece of the financial payout that's on it's way.
