Overreacting? I'd say so.hobbyfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08089664500077967952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6319982385052710495.post-8162183806309764492012-07-25T05:08:57.793-04:002012-07-25T05:08:57.793-04:00Seems like a case of throwing the baby out with th...Seems like a case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.<br /><br />Jo Pa can't speak for himself anymore, but I think it's ridiculous to remove his previous wins for the school since '98. What about those players who were on the gridiron playing all those years? You can't turn a win into a "not win". It reminds me of Roger Maris' 61* homeruns; sure he broke Babe Ruth's record, but it apparently didn't count since media darling, Mickey Mantle didn't break the record first. <br /><br />Sandusky hopefully will never see the light of day and with luck he'll follow the Devil to Hell for all he's done. The former administrators of Penn State are as much to blame for this since football was more important that the safety and welfare of the young boys Sandusky abused. They could have dealt with him way sooner than they did and with less fuss.<br /><br />The only good thing that could come out of this is if Penn State uses their penalty time to revive their academics program.<br /><br />I wonder if the 60 million dollar fine the NCAA is demanding from Penn State will go to Sandusky's victims? Hmmm. I'm thinking not!magicdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10755186050643383954noreply@blogger.com
