The NCAA Dropkicks Penn State


Panthro

Recommended Posts

The National Collegiate Athletic Association announced a $60 million fine against Penn State University on Monday and banned its football team from the postseason for four years.

The school will also forfeit all football wins from 1998, NCAA President Mark Emmert said. That decision strips the late Joe Paterno of the title of winningest coach in major football college history.

Wow, can't say they don't deserve it.

What a total disgrace. I hope no players worth a poo sign a letter to play there ever again,

Why? Why should the criminal actions or inactions of a few destroy a whole community? So everyone should pay for what a few did? I should be punished for something i didn't do? I didn't rape any kids. I didn't witness kids being raped and did nothing to stop it. I wasn't told about a coworker raping kids and cover it up. The actions or inactions of a few doesn't define everyone else. I'm still going to wear my PSU gear. I'm still going to support the young men who take the field wearing the blue and white. They didn't rape any kids. This whole PSU culture bullshit is sickening. You think Texas fans would turn their back on the team after those at fault are already kicked out? Would Alabama fans? How about you Gamecock fans? You think if this happend at your school that the football program wouldn't have the right to move forward after the sick motherfugers that did this were kicked out? Part of me feeling bad for those kids means I'm no longer allowed to enjoy Penn State football? Is that it?

I'm not even mad about the Sanctions handed down. Punishment was needed. But the notion that PSU football should end completely because of a few that are not even a part of PSU football anymore is rediculous.

It's called knee jerk reaction. People are forgetting that the victims will still have their day in court. They don't want anyone who enjoyed any of Penn State's success under Paterno to keep those memories because in their mind that success came at the expense of the victims, like the two are connected somehow.

You know there is a handfull of people that no matter what the punishment is it will never be enough in almost every situation. Those people are not happy until someone is fired, someone is put to death, someone is suspeneded, etc...The situation probably has no bearing on their life whatsoever but they are so consumed with the punishments. These people are easy to identify in threads like this, any Bountygate or Saints* thread, anytime a player gets in trouble with the law, if someone is mean to a puppy, etc. They don't think rationally and it's always "Kill em all and let God sort em out!!!"

    • It will come down to how much the defense has improved. Early results say none. The offense is still a mystery and is dependent on Young and the young group of receivers to make a huge jump in production. The run game is in trouble if preseason is any indicator. Special teams isn't very special and coaching is questionable. I'd say 6 wins is the ceiling until they prove something other than they've shown so far. 
    • Zero signs of life is a stretch there was a lot of energy early and we won the entire first half with what was likely the guys in the middle of the roster and very little starters. Our back-up QB is a problem and we still need to find something LBs. but overall tonight was the first game I saw life. After the 3rd quarter those are the last guys up on both rosters
    • 6 wins is what I'd expect best case. Some decent consistency from offense finally paying off, but I suspect that not much will help overcome a rather lackluster defense with middling depth. Evero fired midseason resultingly.
