Interesting read, but super long. Speaking of Sandusky, I occasionally browse a PSU wrestling forum and sometimes people will link to the football forum. There was a thread talking about Sandusky filing a new appeal or something. Apparently there are multiple posters there that think he’s innocent which is crazy to me.

They definitely knew... that's why they threw Gruden under the bus. They said to everyone, and most people listened to them... "look over there at that racist/homophobe, stop looking over here at the team". We are about 9 months post-Gruden firing and we haven't heard ONE word about anything else. The "investigation" was supposed to be about Snyder covering up and/or allowing sexual harassment within the organization... yet, Gruden's emails (someone with absolutely no tie to the team what-so-ever), with a former GM that had absolutely nothing at all to due with any of that, got released. Why is that? It's probably because there's accusations like this league-wide and the woman probably sign NDA's. No owner is going to throw another owner under the bus because it's going to create blowback. They're all in "C.Y.A." mode right now and the league office is heading that up. So, if you think Penn State should completely lose their football team because of 2 or 3 people, well, it goes higher up. Members of the board knew too. So, if not everyone in the football program covering up something results in the whole program being shut down... then, because a few members of the board covering it up should result in the same - the entire school being shut down. With the NFL, one owner covered things, so his football team gets shut down. Willing to bet that others in the league and league office knew too, so - same treatment, they get shutdown too.

A University with a football program and the business of the NFL are not very comparable. The NFL does what it wants and colleges athletics abide by the NCAA. I know that my stance is extreme but that's how much it's all pissed me off over the years. I use to have respect for PSU. I was a big fan of Paterno and was glad they were in the B1G. I use to cheer for them when they were not playing Iowa. All that respect is gone for them now and the majority of their fanbase. They disgust me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See, this is you (you're definitely not on an island here), making one set rules for one sect one reason, but applying a different set of rules for someone else... to which, you're ok with. My question to you is, how are they different? Both Penn State and the NFL are business. They're both in business, trying to make a profit, by selling their product.

The NCAA gave SMU the death penalty years ago for paying athlete to come play for them. What PSU did was much, much worse. I'd be happy with harder punishment for MSU as well.

So, it doesn't fall under the NCAA's purview. What Sandusky & Paterno did was criminal, it's the same the thing that Snyder potentially faces. The NFL won't have any say in what happens with Snyder if he's found guilty of criminal chargers, it'll be for the courts to decide. Now, you can say that the NFL can force him to sell the team if that's the case, to be honest, I don't think they legally can... but let's say they do. Accepting that as the end, is most likely ignoring the probability that not only did other teams know what was going on and not say anything (see Jerry Jones and him firing the dude who took pictures of his daughter), but the NFL office is probably guilty of it too. My whole point in this really is that you're allowing your emotions to control you in the Penn State issue, but letting logic dictate the NFL and Snyder.

Also, it was just what, him, Paterno, and a couple board members who knew? All of them got fired if I recall. The program got their pee pee smacked, but I mean, we're also talking about something that happened like 10 years prior to it coming out, right? It wasn't on going at the time, I don't think. I just think that to lose your entire program would have to be something where the school was implicit in cheating, not only the conference, but the entire NCAA.
