I feel for the victims and think that Penn State needs to clear house. I love University of Kentucky but if anything like this happened, I would want everyone gone. I just can't understand how Sandusky was allowed to attend practices with kid in tow after 2002. He was even in charge of overnight football camps. What the hell. CNN Edit: In most sports scandals you can laugh because of the charges like tattoos and strippers, but this makes you want to cry.

It involves a bad case of lead poisoning for certain people (probably including the folks who knew but let it go on). -------------------- My heart is like an open highway.

Paterno made a lifetime of fame and glory for himself, called himself an inspirer and a hero, while knowing that this had happened in his locker rooms, by his assistant coach. For a man who made a lot of tough calls, he avoided the most important one of his life. All he had to do was pick up the phone to put a stop to the rape of young boys. -------------------- �Bones is heading into its 7th year & there comes a point where you put up or shut up...You can�t extend that tension that long without your fans breaking." ~ Castle's creator

Now that I've learned a bit about the school and the people involved it makes it even worse. -------------------- My heart is like an open highway.
