  3. Penn State has classes? haha
  4. Faulty arguments I think on many fronts. Sorry, the shoe falls on Penn State. Many of the players would play elswewhere....those that don't I do not care. The Montana case is precisely why actions be taken now while the iron's hot and attention is focused. Future possible cases do not matter. Sandusky, under his broad Penn State and surrounding community umbrella, is more than enough to get the ball rolling Sorry I wasn't clear enough. I was responding to your comments about those who say it hurts current players. I was just saying how would it be any different than with USC or Ohio St. The NCAA has bylaws and none of them cover anything like this. They even have rules about transfers if a team does get penalized. They just can't invent rules and expect it to stand in court is what I am saying. They should have rules for things like this, but they're more interested in texting and sandwiches than the criminal actions of players, coaches, etc....
  5. 1. It's always other players years later when the NCAA punishes a team. The latest example is USC and Ohio St. 2. Having said that. The NCAA has 10,000 rules on things like texting and a free sandwich but not anything covering anything like this. They haven't done anything with regards to what happened with the way the University of Montana handled sexual assault claims against multiple football players....and that involved players. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/23/sports/ncaafootball/handling-of-sexual-assault-claims-brings-new-scrutiny-to-montana.html?pagewanted=all Even if they did try, I can see Penn St. taking them to court. On top of things, it's still an ongoing criminal investigation.

  9. No matter how much he goes out of of his way to make it easy....just to be fair. He is currently an English teacher and at one time, he taught Debate.
  10. Here is the news conference link again. http://video.msnbc.msn.com/nbc-news/48162456#48162456 The link to the PDF of the entire report. http://www.thefreehreportonpsu.com/REPORT_FINAL_071212.pdf P.S. Phil Knight protected him after he was rightfully fired...and Nike's President/CEO went to Penn St....it took Nike less than 4 hours to announce his name was being removed from their Child Development Center.
  11. For those that don't want to actually read the entire report or the transcript of the news conference which Mr. C posted....you can watch the Freeh news conference in the link I provided above. Keep in mind, the actual report makes the protector and enabler of a pedophile (and someone who would be facing multiple criminal charges if he were still alive....if prosecutors had had access to what Freeh did.) look much worse than the news conference....and the News Conference made it very clear he knew everything starting with 1998, was involved in the cover-up from the beginning....and even instigated the it after the 2001 incident. Freeh even makes it very clear in the news conference that the Protector & Enabler of a pedophile was rightfully fired.
  12. The Freeh press conference http://video.msnbc.msn.com/nbc-news/48162456#48162456 Speaking of ostriches.... TVs at PSU student center suddenly switched to public access. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/breaking/20120712_TVs_at_PSU_student_center_suddenly_switch_to_public_access.html?c=r
  13. Ended up deleting the post by mistake. I am still not used to the delete being where the edit button is everywhere else. As well as an extra step to make sure you're not accidentally deleting something. I will eventually get used to it. I am not going to type if all out again. "Saint" Paterno apparently not only might have been involved. "Saint" Paterno might have been the one to convince them to not report it....after they had finally decided to report it 16-days after "Saint" Paterno was first informed. At the bare minimim....he knew they had not done a thing up to 17-days after he was first told. His response was to not do anything....well except possibly convince them to not report it at all. After Tim Curley spoke to "Saint" Paterno....they went from they were going to report it to the Dept. of Welfare....to they didn't report a single thing. http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2012/06/29/sandusky-e-mails-revealed/?hpt=ac_mid They have only hit the tip of the iceberg in terms of emails and documents. The only thing any criminal/civil case will prove is was he involved in a cover-up and how much he was involved. Before the possible cover-up...."Saint" Paterno did the absolute minimum (up to a week after he was informed) legally possible. Once he knew 17-days had gone by and they didn't do anything and he didn't care....for both of those alone he deserves to be in hell if there is a hell.
  14. I think it's more the price for something that big than if there are 300 fans. While I am all in. I would save your money for more important things in life. I get the feeling they will eventually reissue most of them as individual releases. Look what happened with the Cecil Taylor FMP box.

  20. Oh, good! Sleep well, hope you have better dreams than I did. Was tossing and turning all night wondering which of my favorite breweries the InBev behemoth will swallow up next!! Yikes! I'm just a wreck this morning! Since I avoid InBev brands....happy to say, I slept very peacefully. Well, since you asked......I'd prefer it if you'd take a deep breath....exit this fun luvin' thread and head over to the 'Digression thread' to post some thoughts re: several rather pressing matters: 1) Should the bulk of Americans go with a vinegar-based....or tomato-based BBQ sauce for ribs on the grill this coming July 4th? If I had to rank my favorite types of BBQ and sauces. Texas K.C. Memphis East Carolina 2) Help me figure out where the embassy is for newly created (2011?) South Sudan? Is there one? On Mass Ave in D.C.? Wisconsin Ave up by Pearson's Liquors?? Where? I need to know. I haven't been there, but I am pretty sure it's in the same building as the one for Vietnam. I'll meet ya over there 'cause I have some thoughts I'd like to share about the indoor rowing tanks at the boathouse over at the US Naval Academy out in Annapolis. I know Hubbard Hall. Have had a few family members to go to both Academies. One currently will be a Second Classman there and another a First at WP....we still love the latter. haha Like I said, I tend to avoid non-musical/books/film related threads. Having said that. I will try to check in there in the future.
  21. Going to sleep. As head of the Illuminati, Freemasons and NWO...I will be putting in a call to every member (which apparently includes this board's owner.) on what exactly they should post even when I am not awake, or even around. P.S. Just for the record....am I allowed to bring up other member's family members (not that I would ever think to be so classless, or desperate.) in a mocking way, or is that just something only allowed to be done to me? Taking into account I didn't even bring up any family members in my one offending post, I can't imagine WTF? kind of pm I would have received if I was the one posting them. Should be interesting to see what the "moderators" make of things.
  22. That actually happens a lot in these situations.
  23. Somewhat amazing that I was able get everyone including the site's owner to say one way or another the same thing. Even the moderator's only problem with me is with the way I said it, doesn't agree with him. If I can only find a way to bottle and market this power. At least we gave Uli the show he wanted.
  24. Once again, thank you for being such a class act.
