I think its pretty safe to say there are only 2 sides to this. either people are against joe or for joe.  no in between.

Could Joe have done more?  Absolutely!

Did Joe feel at the time he did enough?  I firmly believe he did.

Did Joe regret he did not do enough?  No doubt about it!

Lets not forget first and formost Sandusky is the real criminal here.

That being said, Joe Pa loved not only the kids of that university but also loved younger children as well.  He would do anything to help kids.

Its easy for everyone to sit back and second guess someones decisions after the fact.  But when put in a situation where one needs to act quickly maybe at the time you just do what you think is right.  I think Joe did that when he went to the AD and President. 

Just want to throw this out there. Why did McQuerry not call the cops?  Why did his dad not call the cops? 

In my opinion everyone wants to point the finger at Joe Pa because of his name.  But Joe did what he had to do. To say he just turned his cheek and did nothing and harbors child abusers is a bit unfair and harsh. 

No ay in hell Joe would want to see any kid get hurt.

I think Michael Robinson gave the best speech and people need to listen to it to hear how much of a stand up guy Joe Pa was.

Joe Pa but football behind everything else.  I know I will take heat for thic comment.

Never has Penn State been in hot water over recruiting violations or academic issues.  The man was about family values and academics before anything else.

Also look at all he gave back in contributions to that school.

All that being said you are either against him or for him.

Just my 2 cents! 

• The average child molester will molest fifty girls before being caught and convicted.


• A child molester that seeks out boys will molest 150 boys before being caught and convicted and he will commit at least 280 sexual crimes in his lifetime.


• The standard pedophile will commit 117 sexual crimes in their lifetime.


• Most sexual abuse happens between the ages of 7 and 13.


• There are over 491,720 registered sex offenders in the United States.


• 80,000 to 100,000 of the above offenders are missing.


• Molesters known by the family or victim are the most common abusers. The “Acquaintance Molester” accounts for 70-90% of reported cases.

Just like the number of your African brothers that died in the (world wide) slavery business...

in ....... "collection"....."storage".....transport....."training"....and the work of course....somewhere between 25 and 100 million were killed.....accurate records were not kept...so you gotta "project".....what they might have been
