Just leave the guy alone. Isn't an eternity rotting in hell enough of a punishment?
Pitt selling Joe Knew shirts for their game against PSU
- Thread starter newell138
- Start date
The only thing I agree with would be your shirt doesn't implicate current players, students or alumni.
The shirt does state a FACT of truth...however, you are a guest in their stadium, IMO you should act accordingly and not intentionally antagonize...there's to many innocent people, women and children present.

Pretty sick they talk about his job. all the more reason to promote and wear this
They tried that with me back when the Rashard Casey stuff was going on and they didn't like what I posted there They claimed they tracked me to my job and had a contact there. Never had a chance of affecting me . Too funny.
I stopped posting on other boards long ago, but it always seemed like the Pedd St. board was in a class by itself for dickishness. And stupidity.
You should buy one now for the game next year at Penn State. Make sure you or a friend wears a gopro as well.
That image makes the saying seem racist. The whole point of the saying, as old as it is, and dating from a time and place with no black people to speak of, is that the pot and kettle were both black with soot.
Captain Obvious told me that.
Agree with Zap... and you guys thinking about those shorts should consider this poor guy.. a PSU prof who wore a PSU cap and stood at the Paterno statue quietly protesting.
I'll never understand the cult. Paterno always admitted to knowing. Just said it wasn't his job to do anything about it. We now know he orchestrated the cover up for decades but Paterno knowing for many years was admitted by Paterno. Simply Paterno himself said "Joe knew."
That "poor guy" is Bernie McCue who claims in this article that he knew Sandusky was a child molester since 1972 yet remained quiet. If he is so repulsed by Joe doing nothing why didn't he go to police in 1972?

Good job Bernie. You deserve a seat on the bus right next to McQueary's dad.
Interesting... I take it you watched how the Penn State fans treated him for standing there with a sign. And what do you mean by "remained silent"? I read that link you gave.. Victim A told McCue and Victim A believed the state police were aware.. the STATE POLICE.. exactly what was McCue supposed to do? Victim A did not remain silent... he did not need McCue to speak for him.
But when the Freeh report comes out.. confirming what McCue had heard from Victim A.. McCue went to protest... did not remain silent.. and now you chastise him for it? How very "cult" of you.
And why do you exhibit this outrage over Mr. McCue while you have no outrage over Mr. Paterno?

Seems like Penn St knew as well,because recent unsealed court documents allege
that Paterno was told about Sandusky in 1976 .
CNN has revealed evidence that Paterno may have known about Sandusky’s crimes and failed to act even earlier than that. A man who was offered a settlement by Penn State after it acknowledged him to be a victim of Sandusky told CNN that he was raped by Sandusky in 1971, then spoke with Joe Paterno and another university official about it, and was threatened with police action if he continued to talk about the incident.
Don't try to make us believe Joe didn't know by knocking Bernie McCue, Joe knew and Penn St knew .
Did you even read the article? Either you just skimmed it or have terrible reading comprehension. Victim A believed state police were aware of it during the 2011 investigation. Bernie McCue claims he heard the story in 1972 when he was 45 years old. So you have a gap of 39 years Bernie after the kid told him when he could have gone to police with Information on Sandusky being a child molester.Interesting...

The guy could have protested and not tried to interfere with people trying to take picture. He was just trying to instigate the people. What either story fails to mention is he has a history of harassment and has been arrested for it several times. The fans could have handled it better but he was looking for trouble.
While there is no doubt there are real victims of Sandusky and Penn State including Joe did not handle the incident properly. I however have serious doubts about this story. First is the story makes little to no sense. Sandusky was known to groom his victims and often spent years doing so. It highly unusual for sexual predators to stray from their routine. Secondly why would Sandusky take him back to Penn State campus if he picked up some random hitch hiker? That makes little sense and the only way it makes sense is if they guy is angling for a way to get money from Penn State. Why wouldn't Sandusky just molest him where he smoked pot and drank? Why did the police who investigate Sandusky say they were aware of his claim but could not substantiate it? Finally why did McCue previously say he was a fan of Paterno until this news broke? If you knew since 1972 that Sandusky was a child molester why in 2011 do you now become critical of Paterno?

The university settled quickly with little vetting of claims. They did the right thing by settling with the victims quickly even if it meant that perhaps someone who shouldn't have recieved money. I would rather that happen then have the real victims linger for years trying to settle claims. Business often will just settle because it cheaper and avoids negative press. It doesn't necessarily mean the claim is true. Have we have seen with other situations were there is offers of monetary compensation people are willing to lie to cash in. People have lied to get money for things like 9/11 or the Boston Marathon bombing. Penn State basically said they were willing to settle quicky to make this go away. It not a huge stretch that a person would be willing to lie to cash in.
Right there you illustrate what is so wrong about "the cult".
McCue was standing on one side of the statue. Anyone could have asked him politely to move for a photo or just stood on the other side. We don't know what McCue would have done if asked politely to move for a photo because the middle aged men and their women all pretended to want to take a photo in order to justify pushing McCue away from the shrine to their god, Joe Paterno.
That is what non-cult members saw in that New York Times video.
McCue is what, 62 now? He was 16-17 in 1971 when Victim A allegedly told him Sandusky assaulted him? And you want the kid McCue to go to the police when his friend could just go himself. Maybe McCue is a cantankerous old fool who wants to inject himself into the scene... it doesn't matter. The video speaks for itself and doesn't show us that the other people reacting to him at that statue had any knowledge of who he was. And none of that has anything to do with what Sandusky did or that JoePA likely knew more than he let on... certainly going back to 1999 when he had Sandusky retire... with honors and privileges.
You attack the messenger, again and again, rather than simply admit there was (and seems to continue to be, a problem). You want to address McCue and Victim A and attack their stories when it is quite evident that Sandusky committed real heinous crimes on the Penn State campus and Penn State officials, including Joe Paterno, were told about it and did nothing to stop it.
I would go on to suggest to you that the attitude that you are exhibiting here is part of the problem that lead to Penn State officials not wanting to tarnish the image of Penn State football upset their fan base by revealing these heinous acts. Change the attitude and this story is over... finally.
Can you picture that? What would the story be if it was Penn State fans that demanded the statue come down? What would the story have been had JoePA went public when he first heard these stories. Can you imagine if JoePA asked the State Police to investigate this way back when.. instead of telling victims to not go to the police?
Stop defending the indefensible. Tell your fellow fans that it is okay to do the same.

Yes. I've been combating bullchit and speaking up for the truth my whole life.
You're welcome.
:victory::victory::victory:
That's the only part that I don't agree with, lol, especially when it comes to recruits who signed with Pedd State since the Sandusky scandal broke.
I don't know why I'm just thinking of this now, but isn't it a little weird that they put up a statue of their coach while he was still the coach? Think about it. And then what's interesting is if they waited until he retired/died to put one up, they wouldn't have done it anyway because of how he went out. So to those asking to put the statue back, I ask - if there never was a statue, would you be fighting hard now to have one made and put next to the stadium today?
What's up Narc? Surprised you would wander away from the comfort of the Lair. Nice thread on tMB, you should check it out.
