The NCAA Dropkicks Penn State

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!!!"

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
