It appears that the only one that should judge JoePa is god. I have no idea what he did or didn't do, I wasn't there. You only know what the media has reported. All I know is today a family lost a loved one, and I have sympathy for them. frick you.

Still, some people assume as fact that JoePa knew what happened


It is a fact that he was told point blank what was seen in that shower. There isn't a debate there, steve.

Posted by Drew Orleans I have tremendous empathy for his family, if they didn't know about this as well. As far as "the man" goes, there is none.


Considering you keep throwing around terms like support I don't believe you even know the definition of empathy let alone feel it.

If he had done the right thing and fought tooth and nail to make sure sandusky never hurt another kid.....THEN I would celebrate his life.


As far as I'm concerned, his life is the dash on a tombstone now....and that's it.

I would think that warrants a follow up or a phone call to the dist attorney,state police,,


I definitely agree. I just haven't seen anything addressing whether this was or was not done to any degree? Has it come out that there was zero follow through?

Yeah, I'm sure the evil media made all this up to pick on poor ole JoePa. You dumb or something?

If he allowed this to go on, Peterno was most likely a child molester himself.

I don't guess I should be surprised by some of the reaction on here.



I actually was a little surprised, didn't realize he was so hated. Should have figured the rant knows all the facts behind the case and have been able to place the blame on Joe for it.

Doesn't sound like much of anything. Bowden stayed to long also.

From other stories/sources i get that he had his own little kingdom but the above statement alone isn't conclusive of anything.

it should also be mentioned the shower incident was not the first accusation against sandusky Joe had been informed of.

And the overwhelming amount of "empathy" you show for the kids leads me to believe you suck as a person.

I have taken the time to read the legal reports from this case. Have you?

A Meaningless platitude offered up on his passing.

The man is dead and he isn't on a cloud or in a lake of fire.
