I was commenting that the PSU and catholic church issue are more similar than many people recognize...the scale was different but the reaction of the higher ups was similar and the resultant outcome was similar. I never said scale mitigated anything, that is all you.

    The removed from the team comment was intended to parallel the moved to another parish tactic...it 'solves' one issue on the surface but doesn't address the crimes nor stop the next crime.

    sheesh, lighten up
    Evidently I had a brain sh**t (it wouldn't be the first time) and misinterpreted your post. In the spirit of the season, I apologize. I was evidently agreeing with you at the top of my lungs.

      Red testified today, I guess he was to bashful to use the proper terms when explaining what he saw to coach Paterno. What a dope.

      At Paterno's house the next day, sitting at his kitchen table, McQueary said he described what he saw and that he told Paterno that Sandusky was in a "sexual" act with the child and described it as "extremely sexual."

      McQueary said he did not give Paterno explicit details of what he believed he'd seen, saying he wouldn't have used terms like sodomy or anal intercourse out of respect for the longtime coach. He described it as "rough positioning" of Sandusky and the boy.

      He said Paterno told him he had "done the right thing" by reporting what he saw. The head coach appeared shocked and saddened and slumped back in his chair, McQueary said.

      Ten days after speaking with Paterno he said he met with Curley and Schultz.

      "There is no question in my mind that I conveyed to them that I saw Jerry Sandusky in the showers with a boy and there was severe sexual acts going on and it was wrong and over the line," he said.

      But he said he did not use the words "anal intercourse" or "sodomy."

        "Rough positioning?'' What in the heck is that supposed to mean? I suppose we're lucky McQueary didn't call it "encroachment."
        That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

              Ugh. We've got months, maybe years of this in our future.

                    We also heard that Paterno waited to inform his boss Curley because he "didn't want to interfere with their weekend". way to go, Joe.

                    In the testimony, Paterno said he "knew inappropriate action was taken by Jerry Sandusky with a youngster" after a meeting with then-graduate assistant Mike McQueary, who allegedly saw Sandusky sexually abusing a boy in a locker room shower the previous night, but did not inform police and waited at least a day to inform his boss, athletic director Tim Curley, because he "didn't want to interfere with their weekends."
