Not comparable at all dude. Terrible fricking analogy. I would say get better but I have very little faith that's possible if you're spitting out retard level shite like that.


My understanding was (and it may be wrong) that Briles tried to talk girls out of rape allegations? Boys will be boys kind of discussion. That’s damned sleazy if true. Is it systemic rape and child molestation over years? No. But if your daughter had a Baylor Bear d-lineman ream out her her honey pot, the line connecting the two would be shorter.

baylor bugs me because it was baylor baptist "cant dance" and covering up rape.

Sandusky is weird because joe pa was Catholic and there were and are rapists in the church.

i never thought it was a penn state issue. its a catholic men issue.

It's not a Catholic men issue, either. It's not a men issue, at all. Rape and abuse is an issue among humans of both genders, in every race, in all geographic locations, among the entire spectrum of economic and social status.
Sandusky was a "good guy" predator. He used his charity to identify and groom his victims, and his status to instill doubt and fear in said victims while simultaneously instilling trust in the community. The same tactic also has been used by clergy members, politicians, celebrities, supervisors, etc.
Pointing the finger at "them" may never stop, especially on this website, but the more you focus on "them", the less likely you are to see the same abuse happening in your own communities.

ok.

when i was in my 40s i was coordinating a service organization.
one man out of all of them was caught doing inappropriate with very young girl.

my view is skewed by the nearly constant news of priests being sued.

Mine too, but it’s still a tiny percentage relative to the amount of priests in the world. It’s just news-worthy, and we remember it. Though I’m sure there’s tens of thousands of cases we still don’t know about because the victims are too ashamed to come forward.

But the whole Catholic epidemic stems from their ridiculously antiquated doctrine/discipline/decree that their priests should go against their very nature and suppress their sexuality—a gift God expressly gives—and remain celibate while interacting with people, specifically young boys they are to train (I’m not convinced most of these priests are gay or even pedophiles—they just want some sexual contact—ANY sexual contact—and the young boys are easy prey, though maybe not their “partners” of choice). It is just asking for abuse and denying the reason. It’s one thing to take a vow of celibacy and head off to the mountains and live like a monk in isolation, it’s a whole other thing to interact daily with the very creatures God created you to be sexually attracted to. Whatever, sorry for the tangent.

I’ve always found it was a “let’s check with coach first” issue. Why for the love of frick would you check with a football coach in matters of rape, child rape, murder and abuse? Blows my mind.

Also blows my mind that a coach would even get out of bed before saying “call the police”. Support your player in case the allegation is a lie, but get the proper authorities involved. Then distance yourself from the player when the facts start coming out.

It doesn't matter when they happened. It came out and imo the school shouldnt even be there


It's a publicly funded university right? It would have just come back named Penn Schmate University with a moustache on the main building.

They should have gotten the death penalty.

Penn State was one of the few programs that made profits at the time in football. And big time profits at that. They never admitted what was going on because they didn’t want to stop the gravy train. This is based on the fact that it went to administration officials as well and they also turned a blind eye. It’s fricking sick and depraved. They made probably a half a billion dollars or more of profits over the time that he was allowed to keep coaching. I think they knew if it got out that they would be fricked.


They would have also lost on recruiting and tons of coaches would have blackballed the school and coaches on that behavior. They should have shut that piece of shite school down long ago. But to prove that we live in a very crazy world , what did they do? Go ot and hire James Franklin, who tried to cover up a rape case while coach at Vanderbilt. frick Penn State.
