Deadspin article

Bowden's argument is quite reasonable. As long as the statue is there, Penn State can never move on.

But should they?

I believe they will.

Not saying I agree or disagree.

I think so too, but I wonder how they'll avoid sparking a riot. Will they do it in the dead of night? Will they make it a public event, with a ceremony and speeches about turning the page? I don't know which would piss me off more.

Ole Liver Spots has been hating hardcore on JoePa (obviously Paterno deserves all criticism he gets). Bobby wants some wins erased so he can have that #1 spot

BB was always pissed he got pushed out and Joe had the power to stay and pass him.

He's had some strange resentment answers before.

Statues are dumb...especially when coaches are still coaching there. Take them all down.

although i don't think it would ever happen, would love to see a student gathering do the same thing to that statue as what happened to saddam hussein's statue in baghdad....

no need to take it down, just have it look the other way.

Bobby won't have a child molestation scandal as the last thing on his resume so he's coming out on top of Joe Pa.

No problem if they decide to take it down but they should give it a month or so before deciding.
