Title: Penn State Still Clueless Over Sandusky Situation Post by: Marshal Dillon on January 07, 2012, 02:39:51 PM I think this writer nailed it dead on!
The same forces are at it again: Nittany Lions apologists, sports fanatics and otherwise right-thinking fans who have lost track of themselves and those things that matter in the clutter and cloud of misplaced loyalty when the Jerry Sandusky scandal first broke. This time, amazingly, it’s because non-Penn State man Bill O’Brien is Penn State’s next head football coach. Former players and current fans and supporters have loudly denounced the decision, crying foul, complaining, making threats — an all-too-familiar response, again triggered by focusing on the wrong things. “I will put my Butkus (Award) in storage,” former Penn State linebacker LaVar Arrington told Rivals.com. “I will put my Alamo Bowl MVP trophy in storage. Jerseys, anything Penn State, in storage. Wherever Tom Bradley goes, that’s the school I will start to put memorabilia up in my home. I’m done. I’m done with Penn State. If they’re done with us, I’m done with them.” http://msn.foxsports.com/collegefootball/story/Penn-State-Nittany-Lions-Bill-OBrien-flap-shows-Jerry-Sandusky-Joe-Paterno-scandal-has-not-taught-Happy-Valley-a-thing-010612 |
