Agreed. I have less than zero sympathy for Paterno, McQeary, and everyone else who failed to report Sandusky to the PROPER authorities. It's really disheartening when people put college sports above the safety of children. What exactly were they trying to save by basically protecting Sandusky? Had this been reported appropriately back when McQeary first witnessed the encounter, Paterno and PSU football may have been able to recover from it. At this point, they can scrap the entire PSU football program and that wouldn't be enough.

Not sure if it was posted, but here's a WaPo opinion talking about getting rid of the entire football program at PSU: http://www.washingtonpost.../07/gIQA9oiL0M_blog.html
