I wouldn't put it past the Penn trash for concluding that this whole mess is McQ's fault. If he just toed the line like all the other good soldiers and kept his mouth shut ......

I visited a couple of Penn State message boards yesterday and this certainly was the attitude among a sizable minority of the posters. They were pissed at McQ, but only because his actions, or lack of them, resulted in Paterno not setting the terms of his retirement.

I can't believe former players are going to go to the game and donate $ on Saturday. These people are recognizing a pedophile!!!

People still don't get it, and it's a shame

I'd like to think they don't get it, but quite a few seem to not care. About the kids, I mean. Everyone seems to care about the football part. I keep hearing, "it's too bad about the victims, but I feel sorry for Paterno."

I don't believe this one, want to contribute to Sandusky's defense fund?

Former players rally around program

Former Penn State receiver and running back Rich Mauti organized what he hopes will be one of the largest gatherings of former Nittany Lions players to stand on the sideline ever, in an effort to show support for their embattled program.
Mauti sent emails to more than 800 former Nittany Lions and asked them to attend 12th-ranked Penn State's home finale against No. 19 Nebraska on Saturday. He wants players who took pride in wearing the school's classic blue-and-white uniforms, and fondly represented their university years after they played their final down, to return their thanks to a program -- not just former coach Joe Paterno -- that gave them so much.
By midweek, Mauti said about 75 players had agreed to attend.

Sam Stellatella, a three-position player in the 1950s, has donated money to Sandusky's defense and urged other former players to do the same.
"I told him he's going to need a million dollars to defend himself," the 73-year-old Stellatella said. "He called me back and said, 'What am I going to do with this money?' I said, 'Use it for your lawyer because you're going to need it.' "
Stellatella sent Sandusky $100. He wrote personal letters to other members of the 1959 Liberty Bowl team that defeated a Bear Bryant-coached Alabama team and asked they also donate. He does not know how much money was raised.
"I know some of the guys sent money," Stellatella told The Associated Press. "Here's the thing, these are horrendous charges against him. But he's still entitled to his day in court. Everybody's prejudged him. He's done horrendous damage to Paterno and (athletic director Tim) Curley and the football program. I don't listen to the news and I don't read the reports of what he did because I would get too upset.
"But he's still entitled to his day in court."

Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary tells team he's in 'protective custody,' sources say

Penn State's deposed wide receivers coach Mike McQueary moments ago told players on a brief conference call that he was in "protective custody" at a secluded location not in State College. Penn State interim president Rodney Erickson announced earlier today that McQueary was placed on paid administrative leave.




McQueary, witness to the alleged sexual assault of a 10-year-old boy in 2002 by Jerry Sandusky, has been the subject of physical threats. He could be the single most important trial witness against Sandusky, as well as against ousted Athletic Director Tim Curley and ousted Vice-President Gary Schultz.

On Friday afternoon, according to two team sources, new receivers coach Kermit Buggs gathered his players in a room at the PSU football complex and allowed them to talk with McQueary on a speaker phone.

During a brief and emotional conversation, McQueary told them, ?I wanted to let you guys know I'm not your coach anymore. I'm done.?

When players asked, "Coach, where are you? Can we see you?" McQueary responded, ?No, I'm actually in protective custody. I'm not in State College.?

It was decided by school officials yesterday that McQueary would not coach in Saturday's game against Nebraska after he received threats.

McQueary, 37, has been a full-time coach at PSU since 2004, specializing as the receivers coach and recruiting coordinator. He was the Nittany Lions' starting quarterback in 1997. He is married with a 2-year-old daughter.

OK, you guys, cut it out. Stop posting these satirical articles from The Onion. We already had one of these today.

Huh? Say what?

Excuse me. I have something I really need to go do right now.

I'm just going to throw this out there, could be totally off base, we'll see. There was probably a climate of pedophilia at Penn State that allowed this to happen and allowed Sandusky to stay so connected to the program. Think about it...you find out a guy like this is around you in the work environment, what are you going to do? It would be hard not to smash his face in. The Penn State "people" not only did not smash his face in, and did not report him to the authorities, but kept him around the department for YEARS. Make of it what you will.
