Penn State AD Tim Curley faces charges (Paterno and PSU president are now out)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
In HS we had a professor that taught French and Spanish who was extraordinarily closeted gay. He never came out, but he used to wear these nut-hugger shorts with a shirt and tie almost every day and he had an intense lisp. He was so gay that the seniors used to ask to give him piggy-back rides and hed titter away in the corner unabashedly.

Our biology teacher used to tuck girls shirts in for them when they were out and he flirted pretty agressively with 3 of the girls. He eventually got reported and then calmed down for about a week before he started up again.
 
The death penalty? This isn't about football players..

No this isn't about the football players or the program itself. However if the university turned a blind eye then firings aren't going to cut it. The only other way to hurt the university is to get rid of all the money that the athletics programs bring in.

To me firings are just a slap on the wrist and if anything else comes out then I don't know what. The DP is the only thing I can think of unless there is some other way to punish the university for not taking action properly.

Actually, firing people is punishing the people who actually performed the action. And so is criminal prosecution.

To do away with their football program all together punishes more people who had nothing to do with the crime itself.

Yep. Too many ignorant people calling for death penalties and the expulsion of the Penn State football program, which punishes so many more people than necessary that it's ridiculous.

There's nothing ignorant about wondering if the death penalty is warranted. Paterno and the school placed the program above the safety of children. They valued football over stopping the rape of boys. This was all about the corruption and rot at a major college football program. Seems to me PSU could spend a few years without football while they get their priorities straight.
 
I don't see how you DON'T give the school the death penalty. You just cannot concern yourself with, "all the other people involved."

The program allowed this to go on and thus the program as a whole needs to be punished. Yeah, you need to fire the guys who were most directly responsible. But you also need to do this out of principle and to set an example. You show the college football world- hell, the world in general...that the consequences for putting money over the well-being of children is to lose that money-maker altogether.

I think that if you can show that the responsibility lied with school officials within the program, that these events occurred on campus, that it was covered up, and that Sandusky was able to continue to commit that crime over and over because of the program's mistakes...the program needs to go.

Pretty cut and dry really.

Can we make jokes now?

As far as I'm concerned, an original, well-crafted joke about a horrible topic is appropriate at any time. Recycled, crappy material about a horrible topic is doubly offensive though.
