The main thing I get from this are that humans simply have an extremely difficult time in taking their hands off the scale of justice and letting the weights on the scale figure it out. They are, in short, unfit to put themselves into the judgment seat. And this is for both sides. Joe Paterno's legacy will be forever "gray", not black nor white.

Really sad as if he had told the police on Sandusky, he would have kept his reputation and respect intact. So bad he left on such a bitter note. And how his names on trophies are taken away. As what does go around, does come around. And bite you in the rear. Ouch!

Really feel bad for those boys and their families. Who's lives will never be the same.
