Glad to see we have Twitter to continue to show us the dumbing down of our great society....

All real tweets...


NCAA just molested penn state worse than Sandusky did those kids

Penn State just got molested by the NCAA... #damn #sanctions

So this all started with Sandusky molesting little boys, it ends with the #NCAA f***ing Penn State hard up the a**...this is ok, how?

Sandusky molested little boys, so the NCAA raped Penn State back. #unfortunate

VACATING:: Raping the players ONCE AGAIN! #NCAA #PennState

Damn. The NCAA just raped the entire Penn State football team and those who had no direct involvement in this case..that's crazy!

NCAA stoops to Sandusky's level by raping our school and football program

Sandusky molested kids at Penn State now the NCAA is about to Molest Penn State with fines and penalties #irony

Who got it worse? Sandusky's victims or the 13 years of entirely unrelated athletes and student body of Penn State? #psu #pennstate #ncaa

Honestly f*** the NCAA, that punishment was too severe and they got raped more than the kids did #ironic #PSU

The NCAA should fine themselves because they just raped about 200,000 people #PSU


And now we move to the next level...



Joe Paterno won those games for Penn State. Those players won. NCAA & f*gs CANNOT take away something that happened. Doesn't work that way.

Ill put money down that the NCAA is ran by a bunch of n*****

Is the 60 million being divided by the young boys who are now grown *** flaming f****** fa***** that Sandusky molested?

When Nixon was president we had Jonny Cash and Bob Hope now obama is in office we have no cash and no hope... Then they put a bunch of dumb n****** on the bored of trustees and on the NCAA council and you end up with no statue and a bunch of penalties towards the football team which had nothing to do with the crimes just certain individuals who are no longer a part of it....... HMMM does anybody out there see a pattern. I do!!!

what did joe paterno do wrong? he coached the football team and didn't snitch, like @Mr_Camron always says not to. what did he do wrong?

@Renizzle06 I say f*** the victims. Again.

They need to late this Penn State crap go...1) those men are grown, why they wait 30yrs to snitch...2) THE HEAD COACH IS DEAD LET HIM RIP...

NCAA can pound it up there *** they are destroying happy valley over a f***** f** Jerry c*** sucker Sandusky

Was called an ******* cuz I dont feel sorry 4 Sandusky boy sex partners they let it happen didnt fight say no or tell. they went back 4 more

Our society is really full of f******... Sandusky was raping boys back in the 70's, nowww they wanna come out. FOH

The NCAA is going along with liberal pussies by killing football at Penn State. Pussys don't play football. Replace it with h_m_ studies.



And finally....

I also don't get how a monsignor got arrested and sentenced for covering up sex abuse this week and that barely made news compared to this. Figured it would be a considered a bigger headline since the members of the church have been covering up and committing abuse for the last several decades.

Right? I'm a Catholic and it's just said that these priests have used their power, especially a religious position of power, to prey on little kids. That is what irritates me the most, exploiting people's faith in God.

 

But that's a whole nother can of worms that I won't go into in this thread. O'Brien was just on ESPN talking about the whole thing. Even though he chose to come here, I kind of feel bad for him. He probably had no idea that it would become THIS BAD

Man...u have no idea the delusion surrounding some in the PSU fanbase. I said from the jump that this was going to be one of the least desirable jobs in the country, but folks maintained that a high-profile hire aka. Urban Meyer, would take the reigns after Paterno. After everything that has unfolded in the past couple of months, I am now not surprised in the least at the warped mentality of those who still can't grasp the magnitude of what happened on their campus.

As far as McGloin...that was real admirable of him to make a statement about staying. However, I'm willing to bet that there weren't any teams after his services to begin with LOL. Let's see if Silas Redd follows suit. Then THAT will be big for the program.

I'm hoping Redd stays man but I doubt it. Dude's an NFL prospect. I read an article saying that any players who are good enough to go to the league should definitely transfer, which from a football standpoint I agree with. Penn state wasn't that good to begin with and theyre only going to be worst this year. They better get on a better team so it doesn't hurt their stock

Jeez those are some asinine tweets. Sadly not surprising

And the delusion is not limited to some of the PSU fan base, the same reactions, denials, etc would happen at any major program. People are engulfed by athletic programs and it becomes like a family member to them that they would defend with every breath. Our world isn't smart if you haven't noticed

Actually Social Media has forced so called "real news" to step their game up.

 

Social media enables EVEN FASTER communication and the relaying of breaking news.

Couldn't agree with this statement more.

Lulz at coaches from other schools waiting in the parking lot of the school's football building waiting to talk to players to recruit them.

I don't think it's set in for the students & alumni...That school is forever branded by allowing children to be raped & covering up. When someone hands over a resume with psu on it, there will be a pause & thought about the scandal. It may even legitimately prevent them from getting jobs.

Is anyone really suprised by those tweets? I'm not.

And social media has also allowed even more laziness from the media section that isn't involved in breaking news.

Before social media these journalists and columnists had to put in work...call up athletes, follow up those calls, do some digging, try and get good quotes and scoops. That made for relevant story telling and we all won.

Now with social media these journalists have decided that what an athlete or celeb tweets in 2 seconds and under 140 characters is an actual quote for the record and basis for a news story, or a quote for a news story. They just monitor Twitter like it is news worthy and they are 14 year old junior high kids.

That's what I thought. But I was able to get a co-op even in the wake of the scandal. There actually has been an increase in the number of co-ops and internships during this scandal because a lot of companies have tons of alumni who especially want to help Penn State students.

 

There have been A LOT of alumni contacting the career center asking how they can help.

I'm aware of how the statement started, but it sounds so repugnant in the aftermath of this atrocity. Most of your alumni & student body has yet to collectively say, "you know what, we failed miserably at every turn in this. We accept the punishment handed down by the ncaa & recognize it could've been & should've been much harder. We will use what happened to tear down everything that led up to this point & start anew."

The collective attitude of the school is simply disgusting.

I completely agree with you on this. I have yet to find people who agree with the sanctions. The funny thing is that yeah, it is devesating but it has not effect on our lives whatsoever. It has no effect on our education, nothing. And the idiots who are still rallying behind Paterno and complain sooo much about this is ridiculous, I can't even go on facebook because it's all I see. And these are the same people who chant "We Are..." and don't really know what it means. It means that we are one collective family and that we're all on this together. And that means, they represent the entire universe through their words and actions. And these idiots are the ones running their mouth on twitter, facebook, the internet, and news media outlets making ALL of us, students and alumni, look dumb. It is extremely frustrating

Someone in this thread mentioned this but here we go....

Deadspin.com:

Opposing Coaches Hung Out Today In A Penn State Parking Lot, Hoping To Poach Players

At a press conference on Monday, NCAA president Mark Emmert emphasized that Penn State was being slapped with unprecedented sanctions because "our goal is not to be just punitive, but to make sure the university establishes an athletic culture and daily mindset in which football will never again be placed ahead of educating, nurturing, and protecting young people." Gotcha. OK, then.

How's that message being received, now that it's been, oh, 50 hours or so for it to sink in? Well, Lane Kiffin already made it clear he wants Penn State's star running back. And now Penn State coach Bill O'Brien told ESPN that every one of his players has been contacted by other schools, and that some have been offered up to 50 other scholarships. The NCAA's sanctions allow PSU players to transfer without having to sit out a year, and the schools must inform Penn State of their intention to pursue players, which has resulted in a flurry of faxes and emails to Penn State's compliance office.

Here's more from the ESPN report:

At noon Wednesday, several groups of coaches from opposing teams were waiting in the Lasch Football Building parking lot to recruit Penn State players.

"Our players are in our building right now and they don't want to leave the building because there are coaches from other schools in the parking lot waiting to see them," said O'Brien, who spent the morning at ESPN's Bristol, Conn., campus.

[...]

As they boarded a plane Wednesday morning to go to Bristol, O'Brien and his colleagues walked past a group of six coaches carrying University of Illinois bags and suitcases. A Penn State official told ESPN.com that no words were exchanged between O'Brien and the Illinois contingent. ... Illinois assistant athletic director Kent Brown acknowledged a group of Fighting Illini coaches are on Penn State's campus to recruit "a player or two — maybe more."

Just so we're clear: None of this has anything to do with those other coaches placing football "ahead of educating, nurturing, and protecting young people."

espn.com is reporting that psu faced a 4 year death sentence & larger fine had they not agreed to the sanctions. I wish the ncaa had the balls to levy the death penalty anyway but for 5 years. They should NOT be allowed to earn any dough from the program for several years. The sanctions as they stand now allows the dirtbags to get ticket sales & tv money.
