This university community and its students are the absolute worst in my eyes from here on out. No amount of rivalry hatred could lead me to look at Michigan or Wisconsin in this light. No amount of SECtard football first nonsense could compare with how Pedd State let football rule the university. No amount of domer self-righteousness could compare with Pedd State's view of itself in the mirror.

Here's their response to the Wall Street Journal article.

That place was a hell of a lot more similar to Jim Jones' (JimJo's) compound in Guyana than to a respectable university community.

There was this link in the comments that goes to a 2007 blog post about Triponey's depature from Ped State. I have a feeling that Ped State football has seen the last of its glory (hole) days.

OM[censored]ingG! Anybody...ANYbody living in the State of Pennsylvania should choke on their own words before they would actually say:

Vicky Triponey, the former (and disgraced) Vice President for Student Affairs at Penn State,

AYFKM??? I don't know whether to laugh or scream! Can they even define the word "disgraced"? I wouldn't be throwin' that word around, if I was them. These freakin' people are nutz! Nutz! I tells ya'!

ESPN?s Outside the Lines famously questioned Paterno?s willingness to control his players in a segment that aired three-and-a-half years ago, even citing the same Vicky Triponey and her power struggle with the coach

Wait! Wait! Wait a minute! Just WAIT! "power struggle"??? Power struggle? If that's what it was, these loonies must think Watergate was a "power struggle" between Nixon and the constitution.

It's not worth the effort to go back and count, but how many times do they call the news coverage "one-sided"? Ya' know, kids, it's really nobody else's fault if something you've done is insupportable, reprehensible, and flat-out evil.

Sometimes, there realistically just isn't another side.

It's quite possible - there was an earlier story about Penn State campus cops investigating football players for harassing Sandusky, wasn't there?

Dan Connor Says He Pranked Joe Sarra Because He Was ?Crazy Guy?

There has been chatter about former Penn State linebacker Dan Connor and a 2005 incident where he was suspended three games for what were considered vulgar prank phone calls over a couple months to a former PSU assistant coach. Initial reports said the former assistant did not want his name used, but reporters eventually found out his initials were J.S. Of course us conspiracy theorists thought Jerry Sandusky. Nope, Joe Sarra. Connor sent these tweets today.

Host Ira Glass revisits some interviews done with Penn State students in 2009, long before the sex abuse scandal that's engulfed the football team and led to the resignation of its legendary coach, as well as the university's President. Back in 2009, students said that the best thing about Penn State football is the high moral standard upheld by the team and its coaches.

Interviewer: "What's surprising me is that you guys aren't cynical about the Univeristy at all."
Student: "There's nothing to be cynical about. They deal with every situtation perfectly!"

AP source: Paterno's wife turned away at pool

A person close to former Penn State coach Joe Paterno's family has told The Associated Press his wife was turned away from a campus pool.
Sue Paterno is an avid swimmer known for taking early-morning laps in the pool. The person who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation said Wednesday night the rejection left the family saddened.
A university spokesman said he was unaware of any such directive. The school had said last week that Paterno still held tenure.

Penn State Buys Pr@n domains

Penn State has purchased some Internet domains to block usage by the porn industry prior to the ongoing child sex-abuse scandal that has rocked the university.

Penn State spokesman Jeffrey Hermann said the university purchased four .xxx domains -- Penn State, PSU, Nittany Lions and The Pennsylvania State University -- or the most popular of its federally registered trademarks.

I think it's a good plan, diversifying can't hurt.

Paterno, Chairman Of Jerry Sandusky's Charity Were Pursuing $125M Real Estate Deal When Sandusky Was Caught Allegedly Sodomizing Boy

When Mike McQueary told Joe Paterno in 2002 that he'd seen Jerry Sandusky raping a 10-year-old boy in the shower, Paterno was in business with longtime Second Mile board chairman Robert Poole to build a $125 million luxury retirement community called "The Village at Penn State." The development group had just secured financing and was filing for building permits and beginning to market units when McQueary approached Paterno, according to The Daily's Sarah Ryley.

Criminey :shake: :
Poole...runs Poole Anderson Construction, one of the biggest independent contractors employed by Penn State. In 2009 and 2010, Poole's company received $25,091,245 from PSU. His company is also the construction manager for the $11.5 million "Center for Excellence," a Second Mile project that had long been a dream of Sandusky's and was to be financed in part by a $3 million state grant approved by Gov. Tom Corbett, who was the attorney general who oversaw the investigation of Sandusky. (To note: Poole gave $9,133.34 to Corbett's gubernatorial campaign. He also raised money for Leslie Dutchcot, the district judge and Second Mile volunteer who let Sandusky out of jail on unsecured $100,000 bail.)

When Days of Our Lives was cancelled earlier this year, the show had been on the air for 45 years, and the relationships between its characters were not as depravedly convoluted as those in Pedsylvania.

Just in: a lousy quarter Mil bail with electronic monitoring. ayfkm...depraved, indeed.

I'm absolutely convinced that the Penn State/Happy Valley power structure keeps letting him out in the hopes that he kills himself before the public criminal and civil cases start. I just can't think of any other possible explanation.
