If PSU fans want to make a stand, they should turn their backs to the field during the commemoration. Especially the student section. That would make a statement.
Like that would happen.

"Joe Paterno is a God"
- Thread starter Rutgers Man 22
- Start date
Joe knew, of course.
But winning football games is of utmost importance at Pen St.
Unfortunately they will smoke Shirley Temple today.

One quote of note from the article from a PoSU alum in response to the editorial:
"Lauren because you were not exposed to this man who gave all his efforts to making Penn State the university that it is today maybe you just do not understand Coach Paterno's contribution to the excellence of a Penn State education and not JUST the football program. Someday Lauren you too will be an alumnus of our beloved university. I fear you will not have a person such as Joe Paterno to look up to and remember how he cared for every Penn State student, not JUST the football team."
I guess the child abuse victims were out of his jurisdiction since they weren't PoSU students

I cannot believe in today's day and age that this isn't headline news. This makes my stomach turn. What Paterno did is defined by the Sandusky case. Period. And for grown men and donors to say anything other than he was a criminal and pathetic person is beyond me. In this case the bad by far outweighs any good.
Click the link and take a look at the Paterno quiz. Very effective.
True, but I think they blew the answer to #1, I believe the right answer s/b either d or f.
I am guessing the guy wearing the "P" is a future politician.
yup it sure seems like the current crop of Cult-recruits are ready to put this behind them and build a new State Penn
f***ing filthy f***s. I can't stand them
Is my irony detector off kilter? We've talked about this particular hypocrisy and selective memory on the part of the Cult a bunch.
I saw the guy on the right after the game. He was yelling ask me about Sandusky I will tell you the facts. What complete pieces of trash both they are.
You beat me to posting this. When their fans come on here all holier than thou, this is the picture we should answer them with.
so is it just a couple of pieces of trash? maybe just more than a few bad apples, or no?

A PERSONAL LOOK AT PENN STATE’S BETRAYAL
The really sad part is the Cult members will read this headline and assume it is a story about how the Board let down the Coach.

fwiw ive heard different things about those idiots with those shirts. I know for a fact one of them is not a PSU grad at all and is a troll. People said they went to the temple game last year too and they may be temple fans. Either way they are pieces of trash.
No irony. Honestly, I haven't followed the incessant PSU threads much, so I probably missed the specific point about Paterno being totally involved in the past vs. a figurehead in the revisionist history. I recall lots of other examples of selective memory, but not that one.
Each fan base blames the other for them, many Penn State fans never went to Penn State. But, one thing is clear they are real people, those are real T-Shirts and no one wants to take credit for them. Which is good.
