Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

Weren't there concerns that the governor himself may have slow played the initial investigation to protect the school?

This is nothing more than a political move after seeing that the NCAA backs down when people lawyer up (see recent decision re: Texas hoops player) .

Heather Cox says, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?"

I know this isn't the political thread, but maybe Corbett should ask Woody Johnson (who names their kid WOODY JOHNSON) how sports and politics works out for your team....

EDIT: His name is Robert (Bob) 'WOOD' Johnson....no wonder the Jets are a joke, LOL

The Pennsylvania State University is a state owned institution. All employees there (including Zombie Joe and Slappy) are recognized as tenured STATE EMPLOYEES.

So, this whole, "Oh the school isn't involved," is a crock of shiat.

Not to mention the fact that Corbett is on the Penn St. board of trustees.

This may not end well for Pennsylvania State University. First, your zombie coach allows a known (to him and others) pedafile to stay on staff, then he allows said pedafile to continue to run rampant in the community AT the school he helped put on the map....and now, after a pretty impressive year by your football team (who should have gotten the death penalty) and the butt chinned guy who coached them....you wanna pull THIS shiat out your.....ass?

Have to hand it to these goons, at least they are too considerate to allow things like weekends or football seasons to be ruined by unpleasant things like lawsuits or stopping child rape.

It would've been filed on Monday, but they didn't want to ruin Emert's holiday, so they waited until today to file it.

You have to admit, it was probably the only humane thing to do.

Check this out:

The trainwreck that is Penn State

Standing in front of a group of business owners who he said had been "collaterally damaged" by the sanctions, Corbett said, "I believe this to be the right thing to do on behalf of the students who have gone through this institution, who are here now and who will be coming here in the future."

State and congressional lawmakers from Pennsylvania have objected to using the Penn State fine to finance activities in other states. Penn State has already made the first $12 million payment, and an NCAA task force is deciding how it should be spent.

The NCAA, which declined to comment when Corbett initially announced his plans on Tuesday, has said at least a quarter of the money would be spent in Pennsylvania.

Republican Rep. Charlie Dent called the NCAA?s response "unacceptable and unsatisfactory" to a request from the state's House delegation that the whole $60 million be distributed to causes within the state.

Last week, state Sen. Jake Corman, a Republican whose district includes Penn State's main campus, said he plans to seek court action barring any of the first $12 million from being released to groups outside the state.

In announcing the news conference, Corbett, a Republican, did not indicate whether his office coordinated its legal strategy with state Attorney General-elect Kathleen Kane, who is scheduled to be sworn in Jan. 15.

Kane, a Democrat, ran on a vow to investigate why it took state prosecutors nearly three years to charge Sandusky, an assistant under legendary football coach Joe Paterno. Corbett was the attorney general when that office took over the case in early 2009 and until he became governor in January 2011.

It's no wonder the school is all fucked up. The state is a real piece of work...
