@lemieuxjags That's a great point, and I never even thought of that. Most of the vitriol towards Paterno seems to be based on him not calling the police; however, it turns out that he did. To your second point, though, I would say that investigating the issue was not Paterno's responsibility. For all he knew, McQuery's claims were unfounded; when police didn't follow up, he probably (justifiably) assumed that there no basis for the allegations.

@316cenasucks Haha, a wrestling fan? Did you know that Vince McMahon was accused of this same thing back in the early 90's?

@Drac39 The media has done all they can to denigrate him. What you said applies to people like you, not me. I know the good work Paterno has done, and I can say with confidence that he was a man of honor and integrity. He did not enable Sandusky; he hadn't any association with Sandusky since 1999; he did what the law required him to do; and yet he shoulders all the blame for the incompetence of McQuery and the Penn State brass.

This piece of scum ruined the lives of countless children. I hope he has as much peace as his victims. None

thankfully this jerkoff died. now kids are safer without some spineless weasel too scared to speak up

[Drac39]

@Cgar626 And my guess is you buy into the cult of personality around him. 

[Cgar626]

@Drac39 How was he enabling Sandusky? Did he call Sandusky up and give him names of prospective rape victims? Did he encourage parents to send their kids to Second Mile, so that Sandusky could get his jollies?

My guess is that you don't normally follow college football, that this media circus is the first you've ever heard of JoePa, and that the only sport you understand or have ever played is tiddlywinks.

@itswhatweAIMtodo Yeah you seem to forget his enabling of a dangerous pedophile
