Nebraska -3

p.s.  Can't wait to see the signs and hear the chants from Buckeye Nation at next week's game in Columbus.

PSU football staff are a bunch of classless cowards with zero character. Anyone who defends them obviously didnt read the grand jury report, maybe JoePa' defenders should jump in the shower with Sandusky! Real class act by the students last night too! Lets riot because they fired the football coach who protected an absolute monster for 15 years! PSU is everything that is wrong in our society. Leaders who think they know whats best at the expense of society,obvious corruption to frightening levels, drunken classless students without a clue, and deflection of blame. PSU mentality: Who cares if a few kids get raped here and there as long as we get those wins on Saturday! PSU is now a joke, literally. If Joe Pa or any of those half wit coaches and administrators does the right thing in 98 or 2002 they would have been applauded for their bravery, integrity and character. They didnt. I hope that whole coaching staff and administration suffers the same fate as those poor children did. Fuck you Penn State and fuck you Joe Pa and staff,you had me fooled. This is now your legacy, I am ashamed to admit that I actually respected you. I hope that whole joke of a University folds!

I am one buckeye fan that will be a PSU fan this weekend....just for JoePa, a guy anyone can and should respect as one of the greatest ever...he simply does not deserve an administration that would throw him under the bus, and allow one of the cleanest, and best programs of the country (historically) go out on this note.

The problem with preverts is that they very often blend in....you can't see them or point them out....

So...go Lions this weekend.  But if PSU allows Paterno's career to end this way....may PSU suffer 8 losses a year for the next twenty years for doing so!
