Joe's words...

“This is a tragedy,” Paterno said in a statement. “It is one of the great sorrows of my life. With the benefit of hindsight, I wish I had done more.”

Not the words of a man blindsided by all this. Those are words of regret. We're supposed to make the best decision possible with the best info at the time. That way, one should not feel regret about a direction. He KNEW something was up and chose the high road. He should not be on the sideline again. Don't point out "due process". Let the courts do that with Sandusky. Joe? He knew and the school knew. It's just sad and I am a huge football fan. What's worse is all the kids thumping their chest at how Joe did nothing wrong. They should all ( every one of them ) read the GJ report.

Joe goes on to tell the board they "should not spend another moment contemplating his future". How whacked out is this guy? I won't pile on about age, there's no denying he's a specimen and leading example of long life. I'm speaking of his "I'm the Head Friggin Coach! It's MY campus." attitude. The board should tap him on the shoulder today and say "uh, got a sec?"
