I don't think they should take it down, they made the statue to celebrate his coaching accomplishments and all of that is still true. It kinda sucks that Paterno is getting more hate than Sandusky, Sandusky is just getting written off as a sicko pervert (which he his) and basically being ignored. Meanwhile everybody is pissing all over Paternos name. He was still the best thing that ever happened to Penn State football



Joe Paterno knowingly allowed innocent children to be preyed upon by one of his closets associates and did nothing in the interests of protecting his own name and his own legacy. Regardless of whether you think the guy was senile the past 4-5 years, he was completely in his right mind and knew in the 90s when Sandusky retired under "mysterious circumstances". His name should be stricken from the record books and associated with shame and disgrace.

So anybody whos ever committed a crime (which Joe Pa is not convicted of any) should have all their records stricken? Damn the NFL is going to need a new record book...

Or is it just crimes that you deem as to morally fricked up, that anyone associated with it at all should be ripped from the records? We could be like the Egyptians with Akhenaten and try to erase any mention of him in history, that way nobody will ever know he even existed.
