frick you Joe.

quote:

Nike announced today it was removing Joe Paterno's name from its child care center on its world headquarters campus near Beaverton.

The sports equipment and apparel company made the announcement just hours after the release of a devastating report about Penn State University officials' conduct in the Jerry Sandusky scandal.

...And it had to be a 'Child Development Center' named after him.

I wonder how it will take PSU to remove the statue and remove everything with Jopa's name on it?

They won't. Go read the thread about the Freeh report and the reporters/students who are knighting for him. They're batshit crazy.

The obvious replacement name is center for kids who want to read good and do other things good too.

Probably needs to be at least 3 times bigger, though.

nice choice by nike. i think PSU is quickly becoming a pariah and maybe even the big10 conference as well.
