Re: Have I Become Cult-ish?

I am so sick of this Cult crap. We make the rest of the college football world uneasy because we do things right, while everyone else does not. Joepa was a moral beacon, not just in football, but in life. He will come to be viewed in the same social and moral light as Gahndi, Martin Luther King and Vince Lombardi.
"I have a dream ... beat Nebraska!!!"

What I find laughable is the way they keep touting JoePed as some "morally superior" individual. From the stories I have heard, this is very far from the truth. The nice little grandpa he portrayed himself to be was nothing more that a big front. Fuck him and fuck his lemmings.

You know what I always say... if you need to prove you're not a member of a cult, start comparing the object of your affection to Ghandi and Martin Luther the King...

I mean.. seriously... You've got great people in life... real important folks.. your Ghandi... your MLK... Lincoln... and of course in that list come football coaches.

Pandering to the crowd, and trying to sway the potential jury pool, by blaming the AG for JoePa's ouster (and by implication, his subsequent death).

Sandusky lawyer blames attorney general for Paterno's fall

One of the laywers for Jerry Sandusky cited "embellished" rhetoric from the attorney general for the public upheaval that led to the firing of Penn State coach Joe Paterno. Karl Rominger told ABC27 News (Harrisburg, Pa.) Wednesday night that Paterno was the victim of a media furor ignited by the attorney general's office and alleged that prosecutors made November's grand jury revelations against Sandusky so graphic that it caused Paterno's dismissal.
"We believe that the report was embellished, embellished for effect," Rominger told the station. "In other words designed to hurt Mr. Sandusky publicly to whip up public foment against him and that Joe Paterno became collateral damage of that."
Paterno, who won 409 games in 46 seasons with the Nittany Lions, died less than three months after the school's board of trustees fired him Nov. 9 amid child sex abuse charges against Sandusky.
Sandusky, the former defensive coordinator, is accused molesting 10 boys over a 15-year span. He is out on bail and awaiting trial.
"I firmly believe that the attorney general's office owes an apology to the public for throwing Joe Paterno under the bus by trying to trump up the charges against Jerry Sandusky," Rominger told the station.

Where the hell is the judge to issue a god damned gag order for this clown. The entire strategy is to taint the hell out of the local jury pool in advance. He's clearly sent the message that if you acquit my client, you posthumously vindicate Pedterno.

If they don't import a jury, the god damned fix is in.
