he deserved to get fired. Not so much for his position.....because he should have had the common sense to know some things you need to keep to yourself.

 

No exactly for his position. Child rape should be condemned on all fronts. Right from the piece of shit rapist to the pieces of shits who covered it up. More so the people who covered it up and allowed more kids to get rape.

 

true dat

 

I can only hope that through the criminal and civil process, that Paterno doesn't just sail into the sunset. Perhaps, those children can get a portion of the probable $5 - $6 million dollars a year he's been socking away.

 

Or his 550k a year pension. Seriously 500k per year for coaching college football off of the tax payers? Damn.
